Virtualisation on seL4
Virtualisation Libraries
Virtualisation support on seL4 is underpinned by two libraries. These being:
- libsel4vm: A guest hardware virtualisation library for x86 (ia32) and ARM (ARMv7/w virtualization extensions & ARMv8)
- libsel4vmmplatsupport: A library containing various VMM utilities and drivers that can be used to construct a guest VM on a supported platform
These libraries can be utilized to construct VMM servers through providing useful interfaces to create VM(+VCPU) instances, manage guest physical address spaces and provide virtual device support (among multiple other things). Refer to each library to see further documentation regarding their features and APIs.

Multiple projects exist that make use of our virtualisation infrastructure on seL4. These include:
