AGL virtualization

Dear Xen Users,

I am new with Xen hypervisor, and I would like to install Xen with AGL on an aarch64 embedded device. Could you help me whether AGL is supported as Dom0 OS and whether an installation guide is available on that? Or the installation is the same for all arm64 architectures? I would like to do just a simple demonstration where Xen is running another Linux (another AGL maybe) and nothing special for the first time. I would be really happy if you could show me a guide on that with a little explanation.

Thank you very much for the help and an early reply!

Best regards,

M?rton S?nta

Bertrand / Julien / Stefano,

Any resources for running AGL on Xen on aarch64?

Thanks,

AGL is not supported per say as Dom0.

But AGL is using Yocto as build system so you should be able to build an AGL as dom0 using the meta-virtualisation layer.

Regarding Running 2 AGL, this will be challenging as AGL needs some kind of display and I think OpenGL support.

So your best chance is to run AGL as dom0 and a non graphic linux as guest.
You should be able to build both using Yocto and meta-virtualisation.

Bertrand
