The Bareflank Hypervisor is an open source, hypervisor Software Development Toolkit (SDK), led by Assured Information Security, Inc. (AIS), that provides a set of APIs needed to rapidly prototype and create new hypervisors. To ease development, Bareflank is written in C/C++, and includes support for C++ exceptions, JSON, the GSL and the C++ Standard Template Library (STL).
The purpose of this repository, is to provide an extended set of APIs to build your hypervisors from. Some of these APIs include:
- MSR / IO Bitmaps
- VPID / Extended Page Tables (EPT)
- Monitor Traps
- Virtual APIC / Interrupt Management
- Improved UEFI support
To setup our extension, run the following:
git clone https://github.com/Bareflank/hypervisor
git clone https://github.com/Bareflank/extended_apis
mkdir build; cd build
cmake ../hypervisor -DDEFAULT_VMM=eapis_bfvmm -DEXTENSION=../extended_apis
make -j<# cores + 1>
To test out our extended version of Bareflank, run the following commands:
make driver_quick
make quick
to reverse this:
make unload
make driver_unload
