Xen Hypervisor Support Being Worked On For RISC-V
Linux has supported KVM virtualization with RISC-V for several years while now patches are pending to introduce Xen hypervisor support for this CPU architecture for RISC-V guests.
The Serbian software consulting firm RT-RK has been working on patches for allowing RISC-V to run as a Xen guest. Around 800 lines of new Linux kernel code allow for running RISC-V as a Xen guest by adding various Xen-specific hypercalls and interfaces. In any event for those interested in the prospects of RISC-V guests with Xen can see this Linux kernel mailing list thread for the initial code working on this support.
