Abstract
This talk will introduce the architecture of Jailhouse, describe typical use cases, demonstrate the development progress on a target system and sketch the project road map. The Jailhouse project provides a minimal-sized hypervisor for running demanding real-time, safety or security workloads on fully isolated CPU cores aside Linux. In contrast to other commercial and open source hypervisors of similar scope, it is booted and managed via a standard Linux system. Its focus is on keeping the core code base as small as feasible, generally trading simplicity over features. Jailhouse has been released under GPLv2 and is being developed in an open manner. The talks aims at attracting further users and contributors, specifically from the embedded domain, but may also trigger discussions about additional use cases
