Thanks to everyone for the information. I think the work done so far on microkit and its verification process (i.e., the gordian) is more in line with a lot of the Army platforms compared to the existing CAmkES implementations. I wanted to follow up to see if there was any status on the microkit x86 version ? I need to write a proposal soon to specific the statement of work for building the libvmm and sDDF drivers for the specific x86-64 platform and would appreciate any possible timeline information or a best guess so I can set up a work schedule in my proposal. Thanks so much!

It's all out-of-public-tree work at the moment; but expect pull requests soon. In addition to a microkit that enables hypervisor mode, you'll need to look at https://github.com/au-ts/libvmm and either clone and modify for a libvmm-x86 or adapt it to be cover more architectures. Likewise, the sDDF (seL4 Device Driver Framework) will be needed for device sharing: it's intended to be architecture independent except or the drivers themselves.
