Project ACRN Embedded Hypervisor
|
||
|
|
################################
|

|
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
The open source project ACRN defines a device hypervisor reference stack
|
||
|
|
and an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed
|
||
|
|
securely, on a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine
|
||
|
|
manager. It also defines a reference framework implementation for
|
||
|
|
virtual device emulation, called the "ACRN Device Model".
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running
|
||
|
|
directly on the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of
|
||
|
|
IoT and embedded device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the
|
||
|
|
gap that currently exists between datacenter hypervisors, and hard
|
||
|
|
partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN hypervisor architecture partitions
|
||
|
|
the system into different functional domains, with carefully selected
|
||
|
|
guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and embedded devices.

Community Support
|

|
|
*****************
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Project ACRN Developer Community includes developers from member
|
||
|
|
organizations and the general community all joining in the development of
|
||
|
|
software within the project. Members contribute and discuss ideas,
|
||
|
|
submit bugs and bug fixes. They also help those in need
|
||
|
|
through the community's forums such as mailing lists and IRC channels. Anyone
|
||
|
|
can join the developer community and the community is always willing to help
|
||
|
|
its members and the User Community to get the most out of Project ACRN.
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
Welcome to the project ARCN community!

Resources
|
||
|
|
*********
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here's a quick summary of resources to find your way around the Project
|
||
|
|
ACRN support systems:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **Project ACRN Website**: The https://projectacrn.org website is the
|
||
|
|
central source of information about the project. On this site, you'll
|
||
|
|
find background and current information about the project as well as
|
||
|
|
relevant links to project material. For a quick start, refer to the
|
||
|
|
`Introduction`_ and `Getting Started Guide`_.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **Source Code in GitHub**: Project ACRN source code is maintained on a
|
||
|
|
public GitHub repository at https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor.
|
||
|
|
You'll find information about getting access to the repository and how to
|
||
|
|
contribute to the project in this `Contribution Guide`_ document.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **Documentation**: Project technical documentation is developed
|
||
|
|
along with the project's code, and can be found at
|
||
|
|
https://projectacrn.github.io. Additional documentation is maintained in
|
||
|
|
the `Project ACRN GitHub wiki`_.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **Issue Reporting and Tracking**: Requirements and Issue tracking is done in
|
||
|
|
the Github issues system: https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/issues.
|
||
|
|
You can browse through the reported issues and submit issues of your own.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **Mailing List**: The `Project ACRN Development mailing list`_ is perhaps the most convenient
|
||
|
|
way to track developer discussions and to ask your own support questions to
|
||
|
|
the project ACRN community. There are also specific `ACRN mailing list
|
||
|
|
subgroups`_ for builds, users, and Technical
|
||
|
|
Steering Committee notes, for example.
|
||
|
|
You can read through the message archives to follow
|
||
|
|
past posts and discussions, a good thing to do to discover more about the
|
||
|
|
project.
