bhyve is a hypervisor that runs on the FreeBSD/amd64 + platform. At present, it runs FreeBSD (8.x or later), Linux + i386/x64, OpenBSD i386/amd64, and NetBSD/amd64 guests. + Current development is focused on enabling additional guest + operating systems, and implementing features found in other + hypervisors.

+ +

A significant amount of progress has been made since the last + status report. Most importantly, all of this work has been + MFCed to the 10-STABLE branch and will be included in the 10.1 + release.

+ +

Support for AMD processors is being developed in the + bhyve_svm SVN project branch. The branch is almost + at feature-parity with mainline Intel VT-x support, and will + be committed into -CURRENT in the near future.

+ +

New features added this quarter:

+ + + + + + +

Improve documentation

+
+ + +

CSM BIOS boot support for non UEFI-aware guests

+
+ + +

Add support for virtio-scsi

+
+ + +

Improve virtio-net, add offload features, support multiple + queues

+
+ + +

Implement Intel 82580 and e1000 NIC emulation

+
+ + +

Netmap support

+
+ + +

Flexible networking backend: wanproxy, vhost-net

+
+ + +

Move to a single process model, instead of + bhyveload and bhyve

+
+ + +

Support running bhyve as non-root

+
+ + +

Add filters for popular VM file formats (VMDK, VHD, + QCOW2)

+
+ + +

Implement an abstraction layer for video (no X11 or SDL in + base system)

+
+ + +

Support for VNC as a video output

+
+ + +

Suspend/resume support

+
+ + +

Live Migration

+
+ + +

Nested VT-x support (bhyve in bhyve)

+
+ + +

Support for other architectures (ARM, MIPS, PPC)

+
