Hi Everyone,
I am currently exploring on bringing up XenGT for an Intel Apollo Lake Automotive
platform.
I came across this document relating to bringing up XenGT for the Sandy Bridge/Ivy
Bridge/Haswell platform
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/guides/xgeng...
Our current Intel Apollo Lake board is up with an Yocto image integrated with the Intel
BSP for the Apollo Lake board. The board uses ABL boot loader.
I saw in the XenGT document for the Sandy Bridge/Ivy Bridge/Haswell platform, that there
is mention of Qemu alone and no mention of any Intel BSPs. Don’t we require Intel BSP for
dom0 kernel to work in the XenGT hypervisor? Or is the Intel BSP(including one for the
Intel Apollo Lake platform) integrated with the kernel image in the link
https://github.com/01org/XenGT-Preview-kernel.git?
Also, as we have an Yocto image in the Intel board, we might have to cross compile the
Kernel, Xen and Qemu builds as mentioned in the link above for our Intel embedded board
using a Linaro toolchain. If not, is there a way, we can link this particular version of
XenGT directly with our Yocto image for the Intel Apollo Lake board by including the
meta-virtualization layer as mentioned in the link
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-virtualization/about/ and doing ‘bitbake
xen image minimal’?
Please advise which is the correct route to take in this regard.
Thanks
M
