Abstract :
The importance of the virtualization in embedded computing area is currently emerging. The virtualization can enhance system flexibility by enabling the concurrent execution of an application OS and a real-time OS (RTOS) on the same processor. L4 microkernel can be used as an efficient hypervisor which provides environment for operating systems virtualization. In order to run the application OSes on L4 microkernel, the application OSes should be adapted. The source code of Linux kernel can be readily accessed and modified. Hence, the Linux kernel is chosen as virtualized operating systems. In this paper, the architecture for virtualization of Linux kernel which is based on L4 microkernel is proposed.
