ACRN v3.0.1 (Jul 2022)
|
|
######################
|
|
|
|
We are pleased to announce the release of the Project ACRN hypervisor
|
|
version 3.0.1 with hot fixes to the v3.0 release.
|
|
|
|
ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with
|
|
real-time and safety-criticality in mind. 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 v3.0.1 GitHub release page
|
|
<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v3.0.1>`_) or
|
|
use Git ``clone`` and ``checkout`` commands::
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
|
|
cd acrn-hypervisor
|
|
git checkout v3.0.1
|
|
|
|
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 v3.0.1 requires Ubuntu 20.04 (as does v3.0). Follow the instructions in the
|
|
:ref:`gsg` to get started with ACRN.

What's New in v3.0.1
|
|
********************
|
|
|
|
Mitigation for Return Stack Buffer Underflow security vulnerability
|
|
For platforms that supports RRSBA (Restricted Return Stack Buffer
|
|
Alternate), using retpoline may not be sufficient to guard against branch
|
|
history injection or intra-mode branch target injection. RRSBA must
|
|
be disabled to prevent CPUs from using alternate predictors for RETs.
|
|
(Addresses security issue tracked by CVE-2022-29901 and CVE-2022-28693.)
|
|
|
|
ACRN shell commands added for real-time performance profiling
|
|
ACRN shell commands were added to sample vmexit data per virtual CPU to
|
|
facilitate real-time performance profiling:
|
|
|
|
* ``vmexit clear``: clears current vmexit buffer
|
|
* ``vmexit [vm_id]``: outputs vmexit info per vCPU
|
|
* ``vmexit enable | disable``: enabled by default
|
|
|
|
