Description
Type-1 hypervisor intended for embedded and hyperscale use cases
Long description
The Xen Project Hypervisor is a virtualisation technology defined as a *type-1
hypervisor*, which allows multiple virtual machines, known as domains, to run
concurrently with the host on the physical machine. On a typical *type-2
hypervisor*, the virtual machines run as applications on top of the
host. NixOS runs as the privileged **Domain 0**, and can paravirtualise or fully
virtualise **Unprivileged Domains**.
Use with the `qemu_xen` package.
Includes:
* `xen-4.22.0.efi`: The Xen Project's [EFI binary](https://xenbits.xenproject.org/docs/4.22-testing/misc/efi.html), available on the `boot` output of this package.
* `xen-4.22.0`: The Xen Project's multiboot binary, available on the `boot` output of this package.
* `seabios`: Support for the SeaBIOS boot firmware on HVM domains.
* `ovmf`: Support for the OVMF UEFI boot firmware on HVM domains.
* `ipxe`: Support for the iPXE boot firmware on HVM domains.
