ERIKA3 on the Jailhouse hypervisor
Jailhouse is a type-1 hypervisor developed by Siemens and released as Open-Source software.
To build ERIKA Enterprise for Jailhouse, you just need to export the JAILHOUSE_DIR
environment variable equal to the directory containing the Jailhouse built objects.
The build process (started by the make
command) will link the ERIKA object file to the Jailhouse inmate library.
In case of cross-compilation, you also need to put the cross-compiler in the PATH
and set the JAILHOUSE_AARCH64_GCCPREFIX
environment variable equal to the cross-compiler prefix.
The build process will create a .bin
file.
Once the jailhouse cell for ERIKA has been created (through the jailhouse cell create
command), this file can be loaded (through jailhouse cell load <cell_name> <binary_file>
) and started (through the jailhouse cell start <binary_file>
).
You can refer to [1] for the documentation about running Jailhouse on the Nvidia Jetson TX1 board (already supported by ERIKA Enterprise).
