The best way to get involved is to submit bug reports and patches for anything that is not working for you. Since bhyve is a relatively new project there are many gaps and conversely many opportunities to help. Some big ticket items that we need to get the ball rolling on are: - suspend/resume - linux/windows as guest operating systems - ethernet and storage device emulation (currently we rely on virtio) - timekeeping There are also small/medium size tasks that need to get done: - cpuid emulation (currently we just transparently pass whatever the host advertises) - vga emulation - hpet emulation Then there are documentation, testing, usability things to be done: - man pages - out of the box experience - configuration scripts Have at it! best Neel > ___ > freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" ___ freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
Re: question on bhyve + 9-stable
Hi Alfred, The only issues I had were just due to that it has not been integrated into head yet. I guess we may be stuck due to binutils for a while? I am not sure. jhb fixed that for us in http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/238167 so no problems there. later, Peter. ___ freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I am however talking to Kris about integrating bhyve into PC-BSD's Warden so that there can be at least one turn-key experience out there.

Do you have it up and running? I have attempted to make this easy with the binaries and scripts at http://bhyve.org Non-FreeBSD experience is also welcome as we map out how to support other operating systems as guests.
