VIDEO: Keynote Session: Hypervisor Extensions in RISC-V – Robert Eshleman, Vates SAS | The Xen Project

Keynote Session: Hypervisor Extensions in RISC-V – Robert Eshleman, Vates SAS This talk presents the virtualization capabilities offered by the RISC-V Hypervisor ISA extension (H extension) as well as other RISC-V base ISA capabilities important to a hypervisor. The current state of the ISA and the H extension is discussed, along with ways in which they differ from current Xen-supported ISAs (x86 and ARM) and the impact this may have on the Xen codebase. Furthermore, current challenges in the RISC-V ecosystem will be discussed as well as how they will be dealt with in Xen. For more info about the Xen Project, which is focused on advancing virtualization in a number of different commercial and open source applications, including server virtualization, Infrastructure as a services (IaaS), desktop virtualization, security applications, embedded and hardware appliances, and automotive/aviation, see: https://xenproject.org/ or @The Xen Project for more videos.
