It is optimized to streamline +embedded development through an open-source platform. See the +:ref:`introduction` introduction for more information. + +All project ACRN source code is maintained in the +https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor repository and includes +folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device model, tools, and +documentation. You can download this source code either as a zip or +tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v3.0.2 GitHub release page +`_) or +use Git ``clone`` and ``checkout`` commands:: + + git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor + cd acrn-hypervisor + git checkout v3.0.2 + +The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to +correspond with a specific release: generated v3.0 documents can be +found at https://projectacrn.github.io/3.0/. Documentation for the +latest development branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/. + +ACRN v3.0.2 requires Ubuntu 20.04 (as does v3.0). Follow the instructions in the +:ref:`gsg` to get started with ACRN. + + +What's New in v3.0.2 +******************** + +Passthrough PMU (performance monitor unit) to user VM only in debug builds + ACRN v2.6 introduced PMU passthrough to RT VMs that have LAPIC passthrough + enabled. This is useful for performance profiling at development time but can + cause workload interference in a production build. PMU passthrough is only + enabled now for a hypervisor debug mode build. + +Added tarfile member sanitization to Python tarfile package extractall() calls + A vulnerability in the ACRN Configurator is patched, where files extracted + from a maliciously crafted tarball could be written to somewhere outside the + target directory and cause unsafe behavior. + +Run executables with absolute paths in board inspector + Using partial executable paths in the board inspector may cause unintended + results when another executable has the same name and is found via PATH + settings. The board inspector now uses absolute paths to executable. + + + +See :ref:`release_notes_3.0` and :ref:`release_notes_3.0.1` for additional release information.
