Support more VIRTIO Devices

Open BelleNottelling opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

With v86 starting to boot newer OS's, I think it would be really neat to see it supporting more hardware in the form of VIRTIO devices as these are pretty easy to find drivers for across the board.

The biggest in my opinion would be a netkvm virtio networking adapter. You can get windows drivers for them as far back as XP or as new as W10, and ReactOS ships with a driver for it as well. Linux also has great support for it as well.

Hello, I'm a student at UT Austin looking for open source projects related to virtualization for my final class project. Could I try tackling this?

Yes; feel free to take this up. I didn't have the bandwidth to solve this issue.

Sure! I'd suggest virtio-tablet or virtio-net. This is a fairly complex task, feel free to ping me on our chat for pointers.
