bhyve is a Type-1 hypervisor that runs on the &os; platform. + It currently only runs &os; (9.x or later) and Linux guests, + current development efforts aim at widening support for other + x86 64-bit operating systems. After a great deal of work by all + involved, bhyve was shipped as part of &os; 10.0-RELEASE. + Increased interest in bhyve and the first usable versions have + provided great feedback and many bug reports.

+ +

A number of important improvements have been made to bhyve this + quarter:

+ + + + + + Improve documentation. + + Write Handbook chapter for bhyve. + + Merge fixes and features back to stable/10. + + Support for booting with UEFI instead of userspace + loaders. + + CSM BIOS boot support for &os; (which has no UEFI support + currently). + + 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. + + Improve resource accounting. + + 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. + + Implement USB and Sound. + + Suspend/resume support. + + Live Migration. + + Nested VT-x support (bhyve in bhyve). + + Support for other architectures (ARM, MIPS, PPC). + +
