Current Status Secure Xen on ARM supports the ARM 9 processor family, specific platforms we test/run on are: Freescale i.MX 21 Development Board Major feature list: Open source Secure Xen on ARM at June 2008 Features Updating page table by hypercall Static domain memory partition Bringing up 2 mini-os Guest OS system time keeping Own implementation of domain 0 operations Access Control (Type Enforcement, BLP) Secure boot/storage Bug Tracking We are using the main Xen bugzilla bugtracking system: all ARM bugs. Please create an account so that bugs may be assigned to you. How To Get, Build and Run Secure Xen on ARM Our code has been merged upstream into xen-unstable.hg. However, there will always be work in the ARM-specific tree that hasn't been merged, so most users should stick with the Mercurial trees listed here: Xen tree: xen-unstable-081210.tar.bz2 More details on how to obtain the source, build and run are found: Secure Xen on ARM User's Guide: Secure_Xen_on_ARM_User_Guide_v1_1.pdf New platform support - Goldfish (QEMU 0.82 based Android emulator): Patching the QEMU: qemu-xen_arm-081120.tar.bz2 Some source codes of emulator are modified in order to make the emulator load two mini-os images into RAM before executing Secure Xen on ARM. More details on how to run Secure Xen on ARM on modified Goldfish emulator are found in the section A.2 of user guide. Roadmap 2008 2009 June ~ 4Q ~2Q VMM Supporting 2 mini-os operation Supporting para-virtualizied Linux & device driver Catching up Xen mainline version Guest OS timekeeping Supporting Xen tools Enhanced embedded system support Static domain memory partition Supporting Xen console Power management, ARM 11 support Security Access Control (TE, BLP) Bootloader level Secure boot/storage Roadmap can be changed without notification.
