Hypervisor in 1,000 Lines

WARNING

This book is work in progress.

Hey there (maybe again)! In this book, you'll learn how to build a minimal RISC-V hypervisor which can boot Linux-based operating systems.

This is a sequel to the online book Operating System in 1,000 Lines. In that book, you have learned how to build a minimal operating system from scratch in C, but this time, we'll start from scratch (again) in your favorite language, Rust!

From scratch means we'll start from the bare-metal programming in Rust, that is type-1 hypervisor, in 1000 lines of code like we did for the OS.

However, this time we'll cheat a little bit, by relying on the power of Rust's ecosystem: third-party libraries ("crates") to avoid implementing things that don't really matter for learning hypervisors.

• You can download the implementation examples from GitHub.

Happy hypervisor hacking!
