Information on porting to x86_64? #21
Description
Hello,
Hope that all is well with you today.
In browsing the Internet, I came across your Diosix Type-1 Hypervisor and am interested in working with it.
Unfortunately, I run systems on the x86_64 platform but I saw in your documentation at:
Q. Will you support other processor architectures?
A. Though the project is focused on RISC-V, Diosix is structured so that the hypervisor’s core code is portable. Platform-specific code is kept separate and included during the build process: a port to another architecture would need to provide those platform-specific crates. If you want to contribute and maintain support for other architectures, please get in touch. Ports to other open hardware platforms, such as OpenPOWER, and architectures similar to RISC-V, such as Arm, would be welcome.
This suggests that it "might" be possible to set it up for the x86_64 platform and this is the part that I am interested in learning more about.
Could you please discuss this a bit more with me so that I can get a feel for what might need to done?
Thanks in advance and have a good day.
