General information

This Wiki describes how to run Xen on Renesas Salvator-XS board with R-Car H3 ES3.0 SoC.

Main information how to deal with Salvator-XS board located at:

https://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Salvator-XS

Please note, although Wiki only covers Salvator-XS + H3 ES3.0 configuration, the R-Car M3 ES3.0 (M3-W+) SoC is also supported. It is possible run Xen on other "board & SoC" configurations with updating platform specific parts (device-tree, etc), the hypervisor part will remain the same. For example, the following configurations will work as well:

Due to the fact that Renesas provides their reference software in form of Yocto build instruction, it is provided additional steps in order to build and run system with Xen and Dom0. This Wiki relies on Renesas Yocto BSP v5.1.0
