Neel and I would like to move bhyve development from the
projects/bhyve branch into CURRENT. This will allow the code
to reach a wider audience before 10, and provide us with better
feedback on what features should be prioritized.
The intent of bhyve is to provide a small, extendible codebase
that allows FreeBSD users to easily run virtual machines. Currently,
bhyve supports running FreeBSD/amd64 guests on FreeBSD/amd64
hosts with Intel VT-x and EPT CPU support. Additional guest operating
systems should be available in the near future, as will AMD-SVM CPU support.
bhyve is implemented as a kernel module and user-level utilities. Note
that it has zero impact on the system until the module is loaded.
