Uni.rs is an experimental unikernel written in rust.
The project is a work in progress and therefore is highly unstable and subject to design, API, ... changes.

You can find several examples in this source tree inside the directory named
examples. Uni.rs is using cargo to build the libraries and examples. At the
moment examples do not have separated Cargo.toml files. Indeed they can be
built using the root Cargo.toml file. Here is the list of example name
associated with source files in the examples directory.
- hello => examples/hello/main.rs
- thread => examples/thread/main.rs
- queue => examples/thread/queue.rs
- echo => examples/console/echo.rs
- store => examples/xen/store.rs
In order to build the example you might need to add the feature corresponding
to the platform targeted. Here we will be using xen. This platform feature
will also trigger a special target named with-core. Indeed, since we use a
custom target, the core library probably does not exist in your environment.
As a convenience this feature will build the necessary dependencies from the
rust sources. So, here is the command that one might use to build the hello
example for xen.
$ cargo build --target x86_64-unknown-uni.json --release --features xen --example hello
Since Uni.rs is using cargo as its build system you simply need to properly
setup your Cargo.toml to use this repository. You also MUST build your code
using the custom targets that are available in this repository. The hello world
example present in the examples directory also exists as a standalone
version. It can be found here.
