There are effort to get Xen in Automotive but I am not sure if there is
reference yet. I have CCed Artem and Bertrand who should be able to help.

I would say that xen itself is the hypervisor in question.
It might be configured or used in a specific way for embedded but I don’t think there are plan right now to create a specific version of Xen.

So the only solution right now would be to take the standard Xen and analyse its performance.

Hello

We do not plan to create a "fork" or "branch" of Xen for Automotive, mainline Xen can be configured for Automotive use cases.
We can help you configuring it in a proper way.

Best regards,
