-ACRN v0.1 (July 2018)
-#####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of Project ACRN version 0.1.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor, built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind, optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open source platform. Check out the
-:ref:`introduction` for more information.
-
-The project ACRN reference code can be found on GitHub in
-https://github.com/projectacrn.  It includes the ACRN hypervisor, the
-ACRN device model, and documentation.
-
-Version 0.1 New Features
-************************
-
-Hardware Support
-================
-
-In addition to the Apollo Lake NUC, the Apollo Lake UP Squared (UP2)
-board is supported. (See :ref:`hardware` for supported platform
-details.)
-
-GVT-g for ACRN
-==============
-
-Virtual Graphics support added:
-
-- GVT-g for ACRN (a.k.a ACRNGT): GPU sharing feature enabled. Service OS
-  and User OS can run GPU workload simultaneously.
-- Direct display supported by ACRNGT. Service OS and User OS are each
-  assigned to different display. The display ports supports eDP and HDMI.
-- See the HLD GVT-g documentation for more information.
-
-Virtio Standard Is Supported
-============================
-
-Virtio is a virtualization standard for
-network and disk device drivers where just the guest's device driver
-"knows" it is running in a virtual environment, and cooperates with
-the hypervisor. The SOS and UOS can share physical LAN network
-and physical eMMC storage device.  (See :ref:`virtio-hld` for more
-information.)
-
-Device Pass-Through Support
-===========================
-
-Device pass-through to UOS support for:
-
-- USB controller (including USB2.0 and 3.0 disk, keyboard, mouse)
-- SD card (mount, read, and write directly in the UOS)
-- Converged Security Engine (CSE)
-
-Hypervisor Configuration
-========================
-
-Developers can configure hypervisor via Kconfig parameters. (See
-documentation for configuration options.)
-
-New ACRN Tools
-==============
-
-We've added a collection of support tools including acrnctl, acrntrace,
-acrnlog, acrn-crashlog, acrnprobe.
-
-Known Issues
-************
-
-:acrn-issue:`663` - Black screen displayed after booting SOS/UOS
-  The ``weston`` display server, window manager, and compositor used by ACRN
-  (from Clear Linux OS) may not have been properly installed and started.
-  **Workaround** is described in ACRN GitHub issue :acrn-issue:`663`.
-
-:acrn-issue:`677` - SSD Disk ID not consistent between SOS/UOS
-  The SSD disk ID in the UOS is not the same as in the SOS when
-  the SSD device is pass-through to the UOS. The ID is also changing after
-  a reboot.  This shouldn't be the case. **Workaround:** None.
-  There is no impact to functionality. The issue will be fixed in the
-  next release.
-
-:acrn-issue:`676` - Hypervisor and DM version numbers incorrect
-  The command ``/usr/bin/acrn-dm --version`` does not show the correct
-  build number.  **Workaround:** None.  The issue will be fixed in the
-  next release.
-

-ACRN v0.2 (Sep 2018)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of Project ACRN version 0.2.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor, built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind, optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open source platform. Check out the
-:ref:`introduction` for more information.
-
-
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the
-https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor repository and includes
-folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device model, and documentation.
-You can either download this source code as a zip or tar.gz file (see
-the `ACRN v0.2 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v0.2>`_ or
-use Git clone and checkout commands:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v0.2
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v0.2 documents can be found at
-https://projectacrn.github.io/0.2/.  Documentation for the latest
-(master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.

-Version 0.2 New Features
-************************
-
-VT-x, VT-d
-================
-Based on Intel VT-x virtualization technology, ACRN emulates a virtual
-CPU with core partition and simple schedule. VT-d provides hardware
-support for isolating and restricting device accesses to the owner of
-the partition managing the device. It allows assigning I/O devices to a
-VM, and extending the protection and isolation properties of VMs for I/O
-operations.
-
-PIC/IOAPIC/MSI/MSI-X/PCI/LAPIC
-================================
-ACRN hypervisor supports virtualized APIC-V/EPT/IOAPIC/LAPIC
-functionality.
-
-Ethernet
-================
-ACRN hypervisor supports virtualized Ethernet functionality. Ethernet
-Mediator is executed in the Service OS and provides packet forwarding
-between the physical networking devices (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, etc.) and
-virtual devices in the Guest VMs(also called "User OS"). Virtual
-Ethernet device could be shared by Linux, Android, and Service OS guests
-for regular (i.e. non-AVB) traffic. All hypervisor para-virtualized I/O
-is implemented using the VirtIO specification Ethernet pass-through.
-
-Storage (eMMC)
-================
-ACRN hypervisor supports virtualized non-volatile R/W storage for the
-Service OS and Guest OS instances, supporting VM private storage and/or
-storage shared between Guest OS instances.
-
-USB (xDCI)
-================
-ACRN hypervisor supports virtualized assignment of all USB xHCI and/or
-xDCI controllers to a Guest OS from the platform.
-
-USB Mediator (xHCI and DRD)
-===========================
-ACRN hypervisor supports a virtualized USB Mediator.
-
-CSME
-================
-ACRN hypervisor supports a CSME to a single Linux, Android, or RTOS
-guest or the Service OS even when in a virtualized environment.
-
-WiFi
-================
-ACRN hypervisor supports the passthrough assignment of the WiFi
-subsystem to the IVI, enables control of the WiFi as an in-vehicle
-hotspot for 3rd party devices, provides 3rd party device applications
-access to the vehicle, and provides access of 3rd party devices to the
-TCU provided connectivity.
-
-IPU (MIPI-CS2, HDMI-In)
-========================
-ACRN hypervisor supports passthrough IPU assignment to Service OS or
-guest OS, without sharing.
-
-Bluetooth
-================
-ACRN hypervisor supports bluetooth controller passthrough to a single
-Guest OS (IVI).
-
-GPU  - Preemption
-==================
-GPU Preemption is one typical automotive use case which requires the
-system to preempt GPU resources occupied by lower priority workloads.
-This is done to ensure performance of the most critical workload can be
-achieved. Three different schedulers for the GPU are involved: i915 UOS
-scheduler, Mediator GVT scheduler, and i915 SOS scheduler.
-
-GPU - Display Surface Sharing via Hyper DMA
-============================================
-Surface sharing is one typical automotive use case which requires
-that the SOS accesses an individual surface or a set of surfaces
-from the UOS without having to access the entire frame buffer of
-the UOS. Hyper DMA Buffer sharing extends the Linux DMA buffer
-sharing mechanism where one driver is able to share its pages
-with another driver within one domain.
-
-S3
-================
-ACRN hypervisor supports S3 feature, partially enabled in LaaG.
-
-

-Known Issues
-************
-:acrn-issue:`677` - SSD Disk ID not consistent between SOS/UOS
-   The SSD disk ID in the UOS is not the same as in the SOS when the SSD
-   device is passed-through to the UOS (it should be). The ID is also
-   changing after a reboot (it shouldn't).  **Impact:** There is no impact
-   to functionality.  **Workaround:** None. The issues will be fixed in the
-   next release.
-
-
-:acrn-issue:`1268` - GPU hangs when running GfxBench Car Chase in SOS and UOS.
-   A "GPU HANG" log messages is printed in the dmesg log in SOS and UOS and
-   is fails to load GfxBench Car Chase animation in HDMI and VGA monitors.
-   **Impact:** Car Chase may stop running after the GPU hangs, but does not
-   block other Gfx apps.  **Workaround:** None. The issue will be fixed in
-   the next release.
-
-
-:acrn-issue:`1270` - SOS and UOS play video but don't display video animation output on monitor.
-   Video does not display in SOS and UOS. Animation is not displayed with
-   the running timer. **Impact:** There is no video animation on monitor
-   screen when playing video in SOS or UOS.  **Workaround:** None. The
-   issue will be fixed in the next release.
-
-
-:acrn-issue:`1319` - SD card pass-through: UOS can't see SD card after UOS reboot.
-   SD card could not be found after UOS reboot in pass-through mode.
-   **Impact:** There is no SD card after UOS reboot.
-   **Workaround:** None. The issue will be fixed in the next release.

-Known Issues
-************
-
-:acrn-issue:`677` - SSD Disk ID is not consistent between SOS/UOS
-   The SSD disk ID in the UOS is not the same as in the SOS when the SSD
-   device is passed-through to the UOS (it should be). The ID is also
-   changing after a reboot (it shouldn't). **Impact:** There is no impact
-   to functionality. **Workaround:** None. The issues will be fixed in the
-   next release.
-
-:acrn-issue:`1319` - SD card pass-through: UOS can't see SD card after UOS reboot.
-   SD card could not be found after UOS reboot in pass-through mode.
-   **Impact:** There is no SD card after UOS reboot.

-   to be stopped by "acrnctl stop" command.
-   **Impact:** Can't stop UOS in SOS.
-   **Workaround:** None. The issue will be fixed in the next release.
-
-:acrn-issue:`1775` - [APL UP2]ACRN debugging tool - acrntrace cannot be used in SOS
-   There are no acrntrace devices "acrn_trace*" under SOS /dev.
-   **Impact:** acrntrace cannot be used in SOS.
-   **Workaround:** None. The issue will be fixed in the next release.
-
-:acrn-issue:`1776` - [APL UP2]ACRN debugging tool - acrnlog cannot be used in SOS
-   There are no acrnlog devices "acrn_hvlog*" under SOS /dev.
-   **Impact:** acrnlog cannot be used in SOS.
-   **Workaround:** None. The issue will be fixed in the next release.
-
-:acrn-issue:`1777` - After UOS plays video for several minutes, the UOS image will be stagnant

-   **Workaround:** None. The issues will be fixed in the next release.
-
-:acrn-issue:`1780` - Some video formats cannot be played in SOS
-   There are several formats of videos that cannot be played in SOS:
-   H265_10bits, VP8, VP9, VP9_10bits, H265.720p.
-   **Impact:** Cannot play those formats of videos in SOS.
-   **Workaround:** None. The issues will be fixed in the next release.
-
-:acrn-issue:`1782` - UOS failed to get IP address with the pass-through network card
-   After network card is pass-through to UOS, it fails to get IP address in UOS.
-   **Impact:** Cannot use network in UOS.
-   **Workaround:** None. The issues will be fixed in the next release.
-
-:acrn-issue:`1794` - After SOS boots up, there's no output on SOS screen
-   After SOS boots up with both "desktop" and "soft-defined-cockpit" bundles installed
-   or without any, there's no output on SOS screen.
-   **Impact:** Cannot access SOS.

-ACRN v0.5 (Jan 2019)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of Project ACRN version 0.5.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor, built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind, optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open source platform. Check out the
-:ref:`introduction` for more information.
-
-
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the
-https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor repository and includes
-folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device model, and documentation.
-You can either download this source code as a zip or tar.gz file (see
-the `ACRN v0.5 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v0.5>`_ or
-use Git clone and checkout commands:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v0.5
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v0.5 documents can be found at
-https://projectacrn.github.io/0.5/.  Documentation for the latest
-(master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-
-
-Version 0.5 New Features
-************************
-
-**OVMF support initial patches merged in ACRN**:
-To support booting Windows as a Guest OS, we are
-using Open source Virtual Machine Firmware (OVMF).
-Initial patches to support OVMF have been merged in ACRN hypervisor.
-More patches for ACRN and patches upstreaming to OVMF work will be continuing.
-
-**UP2 board serial port support**:
-This release enables serial port debugging on UP2 boards during SOS and UOS boot.
-
-**One E2E binary to support all UEFI platform**:
-ACRN can support both Apollo Lake (APL) and Kaby Lake (KBL) NUCs.
-Instead of having separate builds, this release offers community
-developers a single end-to-end reference build that supports both
-UEFI hardware platforms, configured with a new boot parameter.
-See :ref:`getting_started` for more information.
-
-**APL UP2 board with SBL firmware**: With this 0.5 release, ACRN
-now supports APL UP2 board with slim Bootloader (SBL) firmware.
-Slim Bootloader is a modern, flexible, light-weight, open source
-reference boot loader with key benefits such as being fast, small,
-customizable, and secure. An end-to-end reference build with
-ACRN hypervisor, Clear Linux OS as SOS, and Clear Linux OS as UOS has been
-verified on UP2/SBL board.
-
-**Document updates**: Several new documents have been added in this release, including:
-

-ACRN v0.7 (Mar 2019)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of Project ACRN version 0.7.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor, built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind, optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open source platform. Check out the
-:ref:`introduction` for more information.
-
-
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the
-https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor repository and includes
-folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device model, tools, and
-documentation.  You can either download this source code as a zip or
-tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v0.7 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v0.7>`_ or
-use Git clone and checkout commands:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v0.7
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v0.7 documents can be found at
-https://projectacrn.github.io/0.7/.  Documentation for the latest
-(master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-
-ACRN v0.7 requires Clear Linux OS version 28260.
-
-Version 0.7 New Features
-************************
-
-Enable Cache QOS With CAT
-=========================
-
-Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) is enabled on Apollo Lake (APL)
-platforms, providing cache isolation between VMs mainly for real-time
-performance quality of service (QoS).  The CAT for a specific VM is
-normally set up at boot time per the VM configuration determined at
-build time. For debugging and performance tuning, the CAT can also be
-enabled and configured at runtime by writing proper values to certain
-MSRs using the ``wrmsr`` command on ACRN shell.
-
-Support ACPI Power Key Mediator
-===============================
-ACRN supports ACPI power/sleep key on the APL and KBL NUC platforms,
-triggering S3/S5 flow, following the ACPI spec.
-
-Document Updates
-================
-Several new documents have been added in this release, including:
-
-* ACRN Roadmap: look ahead in 2019
-* Performance analysis of VBS-k framework
-* HLD design doc for IOC virtualization
-* Additional project coding guidelines
-

-   After booting UOS with multiple USB devices plugged in, there's a 60% chance that one or more devices are not discovered.
-
-   **Impact:** Cannot use multiple USB devices at same time.
-
-   **Workaround:** Unplug and plug-in the unrecognized device after booting.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`1991` - Input not accepted in UART Console for corner case
-   Input is useless in UART Console for a corner case, demonstrated with these steps:
-
-   1) Boot to SOS
-   2) ssh into the SOS.
-   3) use ``./launch_UOS.sh`` to boot UOS.
-   4) On the host, use ``minicom -s dev/ttyUSB0``.
-   5) Use ``sos_console 0`` to launch SOS.
-
-   **Impact:** Fails to use UART for input.
-
-   **Workaround:** Enter other keys before typing :kbd:`Enter`.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`1996` - There is an error log when using ``acrnd&`` to boot UOS
-   An error log is printed when starting ``acrnd`` as a background job
-   (``acrnd&``) to boot UOS. The UOS still boots up
-   normally, but prints::
-
-     Failed to open the socket(sos-lcs) to query the reason for the wake-up.
-     Activating all vms when acrnd & to boot uos.
-
-   **Impact:** UOS boots normally, but prints an error log message.
-
-   **Workaround:** None.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2267` - [APLUP2][LaaG] LaaG can't detect 4k monitor
-   After launching UOS on APL UP2 , 4k monitor cannot be detected.
-
-   **Impact:** UOS can't display on a 4k monitor.
-
-   **Workaround:** Use a monitor with less than 4k resolution.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2278` - [KBLNUC] Cx/Px is not supported on KBLNUC
-   C states and P states are not supported on KBL NUC.
-
-   **Impact:** Power Management state-related operations in SOS/UOS on
-   KBL NUC can't be used.

-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2279` - [APLNUC] After exiting UOS with mediator
-   Usb_KeyBoard and Mouse, SOS cannot use the USB keyboard and mouse.
-
-   These steps reproduce the issue:
-
-   1) Insert USB keyboard and mouse in standard A port (USB3.0 port)
-   2) Boot UOS by sharing the USB keyboard and mouse in cmd line:
-
-      ``-s n,xhci,1-1:1-2:1-3:1-4:2-1:2-2:2-3:2-4 \``
-
-   3) UOS access USB keyboard and mouse.
-   4) Exit UOS.
-   5) SOS tries to access USB keyboard and mouse, and fails.
-
-   **Impact:** SOS cannot use USB keyboard and mouse in such case.
-
-   **Workaround:** Unplug and plug-in the USB keyboard and mouse after exiting UOS.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2522` - [NUC7i7BNH] After starting IAS in SOS, there is no display
-   On NUC7i7BNH, after starting IAS in SOS, there is no display if the monitor is
-   connected with a TPC-to-VGA connector.
-
-   **Impact:** Special model [NUC7i7BNH] has no display in SOS.
-
-   **Workaround:** None.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2523` - UOS monitor does not display when using IAS
-   There is no UOS display after starting IAS weston.
-
-   **Impact:** Cannot use IAS weston in UOS.
-
-   **Workaround:**
-
-   1) Use weston instead of IAS weston: ``swupd install x11-server``
-   2) Use acrn-kernel to rebuild SOS kernel to replace integrated kernel.
-      Confirm "DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION" related configs in kernel_config_sos are:
-
-      .. code-block:: bash
-
-         CONFIG_DRM_KMS_FB_HELPER=y
-         CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION=y
-         CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_OVERALLOC=100
-
-   The issue will be fixed in the next release.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2524` - [UP2][SBL] Launching UOS hangs while weston is running in SOS
-   When using weston in SOS, it will hang during the UOS launch.
-
-   **Impact:** launching UOS hangs, and then no display in UOS.
-
-   **Workaround:** Use acrn-kernel to rebuild SOS kernel to replace the
-   integrated kernel. Confirm "DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION" related
-   configs in kernel_config_sos are:
-
-   .. code-block:: bash
-

-ACRN v0.8 (Apr 2019)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of Project ACRN version 0.8.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor, built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind, optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open source platform. Check out the
-:ref:`introduction` for more information.
-
-
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the
-https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor repository and includes
-folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device model, tools, and
-documentation.  You can either download this source code as a zip or
-tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v0.8 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v0.8>`_ or
-use Git clone and checkout commands:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v0.8
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v0.8 documents can be found at
-https://projectacrn.github.io/0.8/.  Documentation for the latest
-(master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-
-ACRN v0.8 requires Clear Linux OS version 28600.
-
-Version 0.8 New Features
-************************
-
-GPIO Virtualization
-=========================
-
-GPIO virtualization is supported as para-virtualization based on the
-Virtual I/O Device (VIRTIO) specification. The GPIO consumers of the
-Front-end are able to set or get GPIO values, directions, and
-configuration via one virtual GPIO controller. In the Back-end, the GPIO
-command line in the launch script can be modified to map native GPIO to
-UOS.
-
-Enable QoS Based on runC Container
-==================================
-ACRN supports Device-Model QoS based on runC container to control the SOS
-resources (CPU, Storage, MEM, NET) by modifying the runC configuration file.
-
-S5 Support for RTVM
-===============================
-ACRN supports a Real-time VM (RTVM) shutting itself down. A RTVM is a
-kind of VM that the SOS can't interfere at runtime, and as such, can
-only power itself off internally. All poweroff requests external to the
-RTVM will be rejected to avoid any interference.
-
-Document Updates
-================
-Several new documents have been added in this release, including:
-
-* :ref:`Zephyr RTOS as Guest OS <using_zephyr_as_uos>`
-* :ref:`Enable cache QoS with CAT <rdt_configuration>`
-* :ref:`ACRN kernel parameter introduction <kernel-parameters>`
-* :ref:`faq` update for two issues
-* :ref:`ACRN Debug introduction <acrn-debug>`

-Known Issues
-************
-
-:acrn-issue:`1773` - USB Mediator: Can't find all devices when multiple USB devices connected [Reproduce rate:60%]
-   After booting UOS with multiple USB devices plugged in, there's a 60% chance that one or more devices are not discovered.
-
-   **Impact:** Cannot use multiple USB devices at same time.
-
-   **Workaround:** Unplug and plug-in the unrecognized device after booting.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`1991` - Input not accepted in UART Console for corner case
-   Input is useless in UART Console for a corner case, demonstrated with these steps:
-
-   1) Boot to SOS
-   2) ssh into the SOS.
-   3) use ``./launch_UOS.sh`` to boot UOS.
-   4) On the host, use ``minicom -s dev/ttyUSB0``.
-   5) Use ``sos_console 0`` to launch SOS.
-
-   **Impact:** Fails to use UART for input.
-
-   **Workaround:** Enter other keys before typing :kbd:`Enter`.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2267` - [APLUP2][LaaG] LaaG can't detect 4k monitor
-   After launching UOS on APL UP2 , 4k monitor cannot be detected.

-
-   These steps reproduce the issue:
-
-   1) Insert USB keyboard and mouse in standard A port (USB3.0 port)
-   2) Boot UOS by sharing the USB keyboard and mouse in cmd line:
-
-      ``-s n,xhci,1-1:1-2:1-3:1-4:2-1:2-2:2-3:2-4 \``
-
-   3) UOS access USB keyboard and mouse.
-   4) Exit UOS.
-   5) SOS tries to access USB keyboard and mouse, and fails.
-
-   **Impact:** SOS cannot use USB keyboard and mouse in such case.
-
-   **Workaround:** Unplug and plug-in the USB keyboard and mouse after exiting UOS.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2527` - System will crash after a few minutes running stress test ``crashme`` tool in SOS/UOS.
-   System stress test may cause a system crash.
-
-   **Impact:** System may crash in some stress situations.

-
-Version 1.0 Major Features
-**************************
-
-Hardware Support
-================
-ACRN supports multiple x86 platforms and has been tested with Apollo
-Lake and Kaby Lake NUCs, and the UP Squared board.
-(See :ref:`hardware` for supported platform details.)
-
-APL UP2 Board With SBL Firmware
-===============================
-ACRN supports APL UP2 board with Slim Bootloader (SBL) firmware.
-Slim Bootloader is a modern, flexible, light-weight,
-open source reference bootloader that is also  fast, small,
-customizable, and secure. An end-to-end reference build has been verified
-on UP2/SBL board using ACRN hypervisor, Clear Linux OS as SOS, and Clear
-Linux OS as UOS.
-
-Enable Post-Launched RTVM Support for Real-Time UOS in ACRN
-===========================================================
-This release provides initial patches enabling a User OS (UOS) running as a
-virtual machine (VM) with real-time characteristics,
-also called a "post-launched RTVM". More patches for ACRN real time support will continue.
-
-Enable Cache QOS With CAT
-=========================
-Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) is available on Apollo Lake (APL) platforms,
-providing cache isolation between VMs mainly for real-time performance quality
-of service (QoS). The CAT for a specific VM is normally set up at boot time per
-the VM configuration determined at build time. For debugging and performance
-tuning, the CAT can also be enabled and configured at runtime by writing proper
-values to certain MSRs using the ``wrmsr`` command on ACRN shell.
-
-Enable QoS Based on runC Container
-==================================
-ACRN supports Device-Model QoS based on runC container to control
-the SOS resources (CPU, Storage, MEM, NET) by modifying the runC configuration file,
-configuration guide will be published in next release.
-
-S5 Support for RTVM
-===================
-ACRN supports a Real-time VM (RTVM) shutting itself down. A RTVM is a kind
-of VM that the SOS can't interfere with at runtime, and as such, only the
-RTVM can power itself off internally. All power-off requests external to the
-RTVM will be rejected to avoid any interference.
-
-OVMF Support Initial Patches Merged in ACRN
-===========================================
-To support booting Windows as a Guest OS, we are using
-Open source Virtual Machine Firmware (OVMF). Initial
-patches to support OVMF have been merged in ACRN hypervisor. More patches for
-ACRN and patches upstreaming to OVMF work will be continuing.
-
-Support ACPI Power Key Mediator
-===============================
-ACRN supports ACPI power/sleep key on the APL and KBL NUC platforms, triggering
-S3/S5 flow, following the ACPI spec.
-
-VT-x, VT-d
-==========
-Based on Intel VT-x virtualization technology, ACRN emulates a virtual CPU
-with core partitioning. VT-d provides hardware support
-for isolating and restricting device accesses to only the owner of the
-partition managing the device. It allows assigning I/O devices to a VM,
-and extending the protection and isolation properties of VMs for
-I/O operations.
-
-PIC/IOAPIC/MSI/MSI-X/PCI/LAPIC
-==============================
-ACRN hypervisor supports virtualized APIC-V, EPT, IOAPIC, and LAPIC functionality.
-
-Ethernet
-========
-ACRN hypervisor supports virtualized Ethernet functionality. The Ethernet
-Mediator is executed in the Service OS and provides packet forwarding between
-the physical networking devices (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, etc.) and virtual devices in
-the Guest VMs (also called "User OS"). The HW platform physical connection can be shared
-with Linux, Android by Service OS guests for regular (i.e. non-AVB) traffic.
-
-Mass Storage
-============
-ACRN hypervisor supports virtualized non-volatile R/W storage for the Service
-OS and Guest OS instances, supporting VM private storage and/or storage shared
-between Guest OS instances.
-
-USB (xDCI)
-==========
-ACRN hypervisor supports pass-through of xDCI
-controllers to a Guest OS from the platform.
-
-USB Mediator (xHCI)
-===================
-ACRN hypervisor supports an emulated USB xHCI controller for Guest OS.
-(See :ref:`usb_virtualization` for more information.)
-
-Wi-Fi
-=====
-ACRN hypervisor supports doing a pass-through of the Wi-Fi chip to
-a Guest VM (UOS), enables control of the Wi-Fi as an in-vehicle hotspot for third-party
-devices, provides third-party device applications access to the vehicle, and
-provides access of third-party devices to the TCU (if applicable) provided connectivity.
-
-IPU (MIPI CSI-2, HDMI-In)
-=========================
-ACRN hypervisor provide an IPU mediator to share with Guest OS. Alternatively, IPU
-can also be configured as pass-through to Guest OS without sharing.
-
-Bluetooth
-=========
-ACRN hypervisor supports Bluetooth controller passthrough to a single Guest
-OS (for example, for In-Vehicle Infotainment or IVI use cases).
-
-GVT-g for ACRN
-==============
-GVT-g for ACRN (a.k.a AcrnGT) is a feature to enable GPU sharing Service OS
-and User OS, so both can run GPU workload simultaneously. Direct display is
-supported by AcrnGT, where the Service OS and User OS are each assigned to
-a different display. The display ports support eDP and HDMI.
-See the HLD GVT-g documentation for more information.
-
-GPU - Preemption
-================
-GPU Preemption is one typical automotive use case which requires the system
-to preempt GPU resources occupied by lower priority workloads. This is done
-to ensure performance of the most critical workload can be achieved. Three
-different schedulers for the GPU are involved: i915 UOS scheduler, Mediator
-GVT scheduler, and i915 SOS scheduler.
-
-GPU - Display Surface Sharing via Hyper DMA
-===========================================
-Surface sharing is one typical automotive use case which requires that the
-SOS accesses an individual surface or a set of surfaces from the UOS without
-having to access the entire frame buffer of the UOS. It leverages hyper_DMABUF,
-a Linux kernel driver running on multiple VMs and expands DMA-BUFFER sharing
-capability to inter-VM.
-
-Virtio Standard Is Supported
-============================
-Virtio framework is widely used in ACRN, allowing devices beyond network and
-storage to be shared to UOS in a standard way. Many mediators in ACRN follow
-the virtio spec. Virtio-based virtualization is called para-virtualization.
-Virtio is a virtualization standard for network and disk device drivers where
-the guest's device driver "knows" it is running in a virtual environment, and
-cooperates with the hypervisor. The SOS and UOS can share physical LAN network
-and physical eMMC storage device. (See :ref:`virtio-hld` for more information.)
-
-Device Pass-Through Support
-===========================
-Device pass-through to UOS supported with help of VT-d.
-
-GPIO Virtualization
-===================
-GPIO virtualization is supported as para-virtualization based on the Virtual
-I/O Device (VIRTIO) specification. The GPIO consumers of the Front-end are able
-to set or get GPIO values, directions, and configuration via one virtual GPIO
-controller. In the Back-end, the GPIO command line in the launch script can be
-modified to map native GPIO to UOS. (See :ref:`virtio-hld` for more information.)
-
-New ACRN Tools
-==============
-We've added a collection of support tools including ``acrnctl``, ``acrntrace``, ``acrnlog``,
-``acrn-crashlog``, ``acrnprobe``. (See the `Tools` section under **User Guides** for details.)
-
-Document Updates
-================
-We have many reference documents `available
-<https://projectacrn.github.io>`_, including:

-   Input is useless in UART Console for a corner case, demonstrated with these steps:
-
-   1) Boot to SOS
-   2) ssh into the SOS.
-   3) use ``./launch_UOS.sh`` to boot UOS.
-   4) On the host, use ``minicom -s dev/ttyUSB0``.
-   5) Use ``sos_console 0`` to launch SOS.
-
-   **Impact:** Fails to use UART for input.
-
-   **Workaround:** Enter other keys before typing :kbd:`Enter`.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2267` - [APLUP2][LaaG] LaaG can't detect 4k monitor
-   After launching UOS on APL UP2 , 4k monitor cannot be detected.
-
-   **Impact:** UOS can't display on a 4k monitor.
-
-   **Workaround:** Use a monitor with less than 4k resolution.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2278` - [KBLNUC] Cx/Px is not supported on KBLNUC
-   C states and P states are not supported on KBL NUC.

-   After exiting UOS with mediator
-   Usb_KeyBoard and Mouse, SOS cannot use the USB keyboard and mouse.
-
-   These steps reproduce the issue:
-
-   1) Insert USB keyboard and mouse in standard A port (USB3.0 port)
-   2) Boot UOS by sharing the USB keyboard and mouse in cmd line:
-
-      ``-s n,xhci,1-1:1-2:1-3:1-4:2-1:2-2:2-3:2-4 \``
-
-   3) UOS access USB keyboard and mouse.
-   4) Exit UOS.
-   5) SOS tries to access USB keyboard and mouse, and fails.
-
-   **Impact:** SOS cannot use USB keyboard and mouse in such case.
-
-   **Workaround:** Unplug and plug-in the USB keyboard and mouse after exiting UOS.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2527` - System will crash after a few minutes running stress test ``crashme`` tool in SOS/UOS.
-   System stress test may cause a system crash.
-
-   **Impact:** System may crash in some stress situations.
-
-   **Workaround:** None
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2526` - Hypervisor crash when booting UOS with acrnlog running with mem loglevel=6
-   If we use ``loglevel 3 6`` to change the mem loglevel to 6, we may hit a page fault in HV.

-ACRN v1.1 (Jun 2019)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of ACRN version 1.1.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor, built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind, optimized to streamline embedded
-development through an open source platform. Check out the :ref:`introduction` for more information.
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-repository and includes folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device
-model, tools, and documentation. You can either download this source code as
-a zip or tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v1.1 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v1.1>`_)
-or use Git clone and checkout commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v1.1
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v1.1 documents can be found at https://projectacrn.github.io/1.1/.
-Documentation for the latest (master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-ACRN v1.1 requires Clear Linux* OS version 29970.
-
-Version 1.1 Major Features
-**************************
-
-Hybrid Mode Introduced
-======================
-In hybrid mode, a Zephyr OS is launched by the hypervisor even before the Service OS is
-launched (pre-launched), with dedicated resources to achieve highest level of isolation.
-This is designed to meet the needs of a FuSa certifiable safety OS.
-
-Support for New Guest Operating Systems
-=======================================
-* The `Zephyr RTOS <https://zephyrproject.org>`_ can be a pre-launched Safety OS in hybrid mode.
-  It can also be a post-launched (launched by Service OS, not the hypervisor) as a guest OS.
-* VxWorks as a post-launched RTOS for industrial usages.
-* Windows as a post-launched OS
-
-Document Updates
-================
-We have many `reference documents available <https://projectacrn.github.io>`_, including:
-
-* Update: Using PREEMPT_RT-Linux for real-time UOS
-* :ref:`Zephyr RTOS as Guest OS <using_zephyr_as_uos>`
-* :ref:`Using VxWorks* as User OS <using_vxworks_as_uos>`
-* How to enable OVS in ACRN
-* Enable QoS based on runC container
-* :ref:`Using partition mode on NUC <using_partition_mode_on_nuc>`

-Known Issues
-************
-
-:acrn-issue:`1773` - USB Mediator: Can't find all devices when multiple USB devices connected
-   After booting UOS with multiple USB devices plugged in,
-   there's a 60% chance that one or more devices are not discovered.
-
-   **Impact:** Cannot use multiple USB devices at same time.
-
-   **Workaround:** Unplug and plug-in the unrecognized device after booting.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`1991` - Input not accepted in UART Console for corner case
-   Input is useless in UART Console for a corner case, demonstrated with these steps:
-
-   1) Boot to SOS
-   2) ssh into the SOS.
-   3) use ``./launch_uos.sh`` to boot UOS.
-   4) On the host, use ``minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0``.
-   5) Use ``sos_console 0`` to launch SOS.
-
-   **Impact:** Fails to use UART for input.
-
-   **Workaround:** Enter other keys before typing :kbd:`Enter`.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2267` - [APLUP2][LaaG] LaaG can't detect 4k monitor
-   After launching UOS on APL UP2 , 4k monitor cannot be detected.
-
-   **Impact:** UOS can't display on a 4k monitor.
-
-   **Workaround:** Use a monitor with less than 4k resolution.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2279` - [APLNUC] After exiting UOS, SOS can't use USB keyboard and mouse
-   After exiting UOS with mediator Usb_KeyBoard and Mouse, SOS cannot use the USB keyboard and mouse.
-
-   These steps reproduce the issue:
-
-   1) Insert USB keyboard and mouse in standard A port (USB3.0 port)
-   2) Boot UOS by sharing the USB keyboard and mouse in cmd line:
-
-      ``-s n,xhci,1-1:1-2:1-3:1-4:2-1:2-2:2-3:2-4 \``
-
-   3) UOS access USB keyboard and mouse.
-   4) Exit UOS.
-   5) SOS tries to access USB keyboard and mouse, and fails.
-
-   **Impact:** SOS cannot use USB keyboard and mouse in such case.
-
-   **Workaround:** Unplug and plug-in the USB keyboard and mouse after exiting UOS.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2753` - UOS cannot resume after suspend by pressing power key
-   UOS cannot resume after suspend by pressing power key
-
-   **Impact:** UOS may failed to resume after suspend by pressing the power key.
-
-   **Workaround:** None
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`2974` - Launching Zephyr RTOS as a real-time UOS takes too long
-   Launching Zephyr RTOS as a real-time UOS takes too long
-
-   These steps reproduce the issue:
-
-   1) Build Zephyr image by follow the `guide
-      <https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/tutorials/using_zephyr_as_uos.html?highlight=zephyr>`_.
-   2) Copy the "Zephyr.img", "OVMF.fd" and "launch_zephyr.sh" to NUC.
-   3) Execute the launch_zephyr.sh script.
-
-   This is not reproducible with the stock ``launch_zephyr.sh`` script in our repo,
-   it only happens when trying to launch an RTVM.
-
-   **Impact:** Launching Zephyr RTOS as a real-time UOS takes too long
-
-   **Workaround:** A different version of Grub is known to work correctly
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`3268` - dm: add virtio-rnd device to command line
-   LaaG's network is unreachable with UOS kernel
-
-   These steps reproduce the issue:
-
-   1) Download Clear Linux OS
-   2) Decompress Clear Linux
-   3) Replace above ``kvm.img`` with default kernel in UOS
-   4) Launch UOS
-   5) Try to ping UOS from another host.
-   6) UOS network is unreachable.
-
-   **Impact:** LaaG's network is unreachable with UOS kernel
-
-   **Workaround:** Add ``-s 7,virtio-rnd \`` to the launch_uos.sh script
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`3280` - AcrnGT holding forcewake lock causes high CPU usage in gvt workload thread.
-   The i915 forcewake mechanism is to keep the GPU from its low power state, in
-   order to access some specific registers. However, in the path of GVT-g scheduler submission,
-   there's no need to acquire the i915 forcewake.
-
-   **Impact:** AcrnGT holding forcewake lock cause high cpu usage gvt workload thread
-
-   **Workaround:** None
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`3279` - AcrnGT causes display flicker in some situations.
-   In current scaler ownership assignment logic, there's an issue that when SOS disables a plane,
-   it will disable corresponding plane scalers; however, there's no scaler ownership checking there.
-   So the scalers owned by UOS may be disabled by SOS by accident.
-
-   **Impact:** AcrnGT causes display flicker in some situations
-
-   **Workaround:** None
-

-Known Issues
-************
-
-:acrn-issue:`3465` - HV: reinit pbar base if a device reset is detected
-   When a passthru pci device is reset, its physical bar base address may be reset to 0,
-   with vpci bar emulation, vpci needs to reinit the physical bar base address to a
-   valid address if a device reset is detected.
-
-   **Impact:** Fail to launch Clear Linux Preempt_RT VM with ``reset`` passthru parameter
-
-   **Workaround:** Issue resolved on ACRN tag: ``acrn-2019w33.1-140000p``
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`3520` - bundle of "VGPU unconformance guest" messages observed for "gvt" in SOS console while using UOS
-   After the need_force_wake is not removed in course of submitting VGPU workload,
-   it will print a bundle of below messages while the User VM is started.
-
-   | gvt: vgpu1 unconformance guest detected
-   | gvt: vgpu1 unconformance mmio 0x2098:0xffffffff,0x0
-
-   **Impact:** Messy and repetitive output from the monitor
-
-   **Workaround:** Need to rebuild and apply the latest Service VM kernel from the ``acrn-kernel`` source code.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`3533` - NUC hang while repeating the cold boot
-   NUC will hang while repeating cold boot operation.
-
-   1) Before begin coldboot, enable no passwd ssh for SOS and RTVM.
-   #) Boot up Service VM
-   #) Boot up Zephyr guest with UUID "d2795438-25d6-11e8-864e-cb7a18b34643"
-   #) Boot up RTVM with UUID "495ae2e5-2603-4d64-af76-d4bc5a8ec0e5"
-   #) Reboot RTVM and then will restart the whole system
-   #) After Service VM boot up, return to step 3
-
-   **Impact:** Cold boot operation is not stable for NUC platform
-
-   **Workaround:** Need to rebuild and apply the latest Service VM kernel from the ``acrn-kernel`` source code.
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`3576` - Expand default memory from 2G to 4G for WaaG
-
-   **Impact:** More memory size is required from Windows VM
-
-   **Workaround:** Issue resolved on ACRN tag: ``acrn-2019w33.1-140000p``
-
------
-
-:acrn-issue:`3609` - Sometimes fail to boot os while repeating the cold boot operation
-
-   **Workaround:** Please refer the PR information in this git issue

-ACRN v1.3 (Sep 2019)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of ACRN version 1.3.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor, built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind, optimized to streamline embedded
-development through an open source platform. Check out the :ref:`introduction` for more information.
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-repository and includes folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device
-model, tools, and documentation. You can either download this source code as
-a zip or tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v1.3 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v1.3>`_)
-or use Git clone and checkout commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v1.3
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v1.3 documents can be found at https://projectacrn.github.io/1.3/.
-Documentation for the latest (master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-ACRN v1.3 requires Clear Linux* OS version 31080.
-
-Version 1.3 Major Features
-**************************
-
-What's New in v1.3
-==================
-* OVMF supports Graphics Output Protocol (GOP), allowing Windows logo at guest
-  VM boot time.
-* Platform-level coordinated graceful shutdown (S5) for User VMs.
-* Virtual UART (vUART) for inter-VM communication.
-* Introduced :ref:`acrn-config <acrn_configuration_tool>` tool to configure VM
-  and hypervisor from a XML configuration file at build time.
-* Ethernet mediator now supports prioritization per VM.
-* Features for real-time determinism, e.g. Cache Allocation Technology (CAT, only supported on Apollo Lake).
-
-Document Updates

-ACRN v1.4 (Oct 2019)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of ACRN version 1.4.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind. It is optimized to streamline embedded
-development through an open source platform. Check out the :ref:`introduction` for more information.
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-repository and includes folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device
-model, tools, and documentation. You can either download this source code as
-a zip or tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v1.4 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v1.4>`_)
-or use Git clone and checkout commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v1.4
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v1.4 documents can be found at https://projectacrn.github.io/1.4/.
-Documentation for the latest (master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-ACRN v1.4 requires Clear Linux* OS version 31670.
-
-Version 1.4 Major Features
-**************************
-
-What's New in v1.4
-==================
-* ACRN now conforms to the Microsoft* Hypervisor Top-Level Functional Specification (TLFS).
-* ACRN scheduler framework re-architected capabilities have been added.
-* WaaG (Windows as a guest) stability and performance has been improved.
-* Realtime performance of the RTVM (preempt-RT kernel-based) has been improved.
-
-Document Updates
-================
-Many new `reference documents <https://projectacrn.github.io>`_ are available, including:
-
-* :ref:`ACRN high-level design <hld>` documents.
-* :ref:`enable-s5`
-* Enable Secure Boot in the Clear Linux User VM
-* :ref:`How-to-enable-secure-boot-for-windows`
-* :ref:`asa`
-
-Security Vulnerabilities
-************************
-
-We recommend that all developers upgrade to this v1.4 release, which
-addresses the following security issues that were discovered in previous releases:
-
-Mitigation for Machine Check Error on Page Size Change
-   Improper invalidation for page table updates by a virtual guest operating system for multiple
-   Intel |reg| Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service
-   of the host system via local access. Malicious guest kernel could trigger this issue, CVE-2018-12207.
-
-AP Trampoline Is Accessible to the Service VM
-   This vulnerability is triggered when validating the memory isolation between the VM and hypervisor.
-   The AP Trampoline code exists in the LOW_RAM region in the hypervisor but is
-   potentially accessible to the Service VM. This could be used by an attacker to mount DoS
-   attacks on the hypervisor if the Service VM is compromised.
-
-Improper Usage Of the ``LIST_FOREACH()`` Macro
-   Testing discovered that the MACRO ``LIST_FOREACH()`` was incorrectly used in some cases
-   which could induce a "wild pointer" and cause the ACRN Device Model to crash. Attackers
-   can potentially use this issue to cause denial of service (DoS) attacks.
-
-Hypervisor Crashed When Fuzzing HC_SET_CALLBACK_VECTOR
-   This vulnerability was reported by the Fuzzing tool for the debug version of ACRN. When the software fails
-   to validate input properly, an attacker is able to craft the input in a form that is
-   not expected by the rest of the application. This can lead to parts of the system
-   receiving unintended inputs, which may result in an altered control flow, arbitrary control
-   of a resource, or arbitrary code execution.
-
-FILE Pointer Is Not Closed After Using
-   This vulnerability was reported by the Fuzzing tool. Leaving the file unclosed will cause a
-   leaking file descriptor and may cause unexpected errors in the Device Model program.
-
-Descriptor of Directory Stream Is Referenced After Release
-   This vulnerability was reported by the Fuzzing tool. A successful call to ``closedir(DIR *dirp)``
-   also closes the underlying file descriptor associated with ``dirp``. Access to the released
-   descriptor may point to some arbitrary memory location or cause undefined behavior.
-
-Mutex Is Potentially Kept in a Locked State Forever
-   This vulnerability was reported by the Fuzzing tool. Here, ``pthread_mutex_lock/unlock`` pairing was not
-   always done. Leaving a mutex in a locked state forever can cause program deadlock,
-   depending on the usage scenario.
-
-We recommend that all developers upgrade to ACRN release v1.4.

-ACRN v1.5 (Jan 2020)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of ACRN version 1.5.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind. It is optimized to streamline embedded
-development through an open source platform. Check out the :ref:`introduction` for more information.
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-repository and includes folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device
-model, tools, and documentation. You can either download this source code as
-a zip or tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v1.5 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v1.5>`_)
-or use Git clone and checkout commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v1.5
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v1.5 documents can be found at https://projectacrn.github.io/1.5/.
-Documentation for the latest (master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-ACRN v1.5 requires Clear Linux* OS version 32030.
-
-Version 1.5 Major Features
-**************************
-
-What's New in v1.5
-==================
-* Basic CPU sharing: Fairness Round-Robin CPU Scheduling has been added to support basic CPU sharing (the Service VM and WaaG share one CPU core).
-* 8th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors (code name Whiskey Lake) are now supported and validated.
-* Overall stability and performance has been improved.
-* An offline configuration tool has been created to help developers port ACRN to different hardware boards.
-
-Document Updates
-================
-Many new `reference documents <https://projectacrn.github.io>`_ are available, including:
-
-* :ref:`run-kata-containers`
-* :ref:`hardware` (Addition of Whiskey Lake information)
-* :ref:`cpu_sharing`
-* :ref:`using_windows_as_uos` (Update to use ACRNGT GOP to install Windows)
-

-ACRN v1.6.1 (May 2020)
-######################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of ACRN version 1.6.1.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind. It is optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open source platform. Check out :ref:`introduction` for more information.
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-repository and includes folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device
-model, tools, and documentation. You can either download this source code as
-a zip or tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v1.6.1 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v1.6.1>`_)
-or use Git clone and checkout commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v1.6.1
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v1.6.1 documents can be found at
-https://projectacrn.github.io/1.6.1/.
-Documentation for the latest (master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-ACRN v1.6.1 requires Clear Linux OS version 33050.
-
-Version 1.6.1 Major Features
-****************************
-
-What's New in v1.6.1
-====================
-* ACRN ensures libvirt supports VM orchestration based on OpenStack
-
-   - libvirt is an open-source API, daemon, and management tool as a
-     layer to decouple orchestrators and hypervisors.
-     By adding a "ACRN driver", libvirt can support ACRN. Please refer to ACRN-libvirt.
-
-   - Supports the libvirt-based orchestrator to configure a guest
-     domain's CPU configuration during VM creation.
-
-   - Supports dynamic configuration for vCPU affinity via acrn-dm
-
-   - ACRN configuration tool updated based on VM orchestration support.
-
-* Enable CPU sharing and GVT-d Graphics virtualization by default.
-
-* Supported platforms with multiple IO-APICs
-
-* Supported VT-d Posted Interrupts
-
-Document Updates
-================
-Many new and updated `reference documents <https://projectacrn.github.io>`_ are available, including:
-
-* :ref:`asa`
-* :ref:`setup_openstack_libvirt`
-* :ref:`rt_perf_tips_rtvm`
-* :ref:`acrn_configuration_tool`
-* :ref:`hv-device-passthrough`
-* :ref:`cpu_sharing`
-* :ref:`getting-started-building`
-* Run Clear Linux as the Service VM
-* :ref:`using_windows_as_uos`
-
-We recommend that all developers upgrade to ACRN release v1.6.1.

-ACRN v1.6 (Mar 2020)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of ACRN version 1.6.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind. It is optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open source platform. Check out :ref:`introduction` for more information.
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-repository and includes folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device
-model, tools, and documentation. You can either download this source code as
-a zip or tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v1.6 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v1.6>`_)
-or use Git clone and checkout commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v1.6
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to correspond
-with a specific release: generated v1.6 documents can be found at https://projectacrn.github.io/1.6/.
-Documentation for the latest (master) branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-ACRN v1.6 requires Clear Linux OS version 32680.
-
-Version 1.6 Major Features
-**************************
-
-What's New in v1.6
-==================
-* Graphics passthrough support
-
-  - The hypervisor and Service VMs support allowing passthrough graphics devices to target DM-launched guest VMs, based on GVT-d.
-
-* SRIOV support
-
-  - The ACRN hypervisor allows an SRIOV-capable PCI device's Physical Function (PF) to be allocated to the Service VM.
-
-  - The ACRN hypervisor allows a SRIOV-capable PCI device's Virtual Functions (VFs) to be allocated to any VM.
-
-  - The ACRN Service VM supports the SRIOV Ethernet device (through the PF driver), and ensures that the SRIOV VF device is able to be assigned (passthrough) to a post-launched VM (launched by ACRN-DM).
-
-* CPU sharing enhancement -  Halt/Pause emulation
-
-  - For a vCPU that uses the fairness CPU scheduler, the hypervisor supports yielding an idle vCPU (when it's running a 'HLT' or 'PAUSE' instruction).
-
-* PCI Config space access emulation for passthrough devices in the hypervisor
-
-  - The hypervisor provides the necessary emulation (such as config space) of the passthrough PCI device during runtime for a DM-launched VM. Such runtime emulation is DM-independent.
-
-* PCI bridge emulation in hypervisor
-
-Document Updates
-================
-Many new and updated `reference documents <https://projectacrn.github.io>`_ are available, including:
-
-* :ref:`asa`
-* :ref:`sriov_virtualization`
-* :ref:`using_xenomai_as_uos`
-* :ref:`split-device-model`
-* :ref:`rdt_configuration`
-
-
-We recommend that all developers upgrade to ACRN release v1.6.

-ACRN v2.0 (Jun 2020)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the second major release of the Project ACRN
-hypervisor.
-
-ACRN v2.0 offers new and improved scenario definitions, with a focus on
-industrial IoT and edge device use cases. ACRN supports these uses with
-their demanding and varying workloads including Functional Safety
-certification, real-time characteristics, device and CPU sharing, and
-general computing power needs, while honoring required isolation and
-resource partitioning. A wide range of User VM OSs (such as Windows 10,
-Ubuntu, Android, and VxWorks) can run on ACRN, running different
-workloads and applications on the same hardware platform.
-
-A new hybrid-mode architecture adds flexibility to simultaneously
-support both traditional resource sharing among VMs and complete VM
-resource partitioning required for functional safety requirements.
-
-Workload management and orchestration, rather standard and mature in
-cloud environments, are enabled now in ACRN, allowing open source
-orchestrators such as OpenStack to manage ACRN virtual machines. Kata
-Containers, a secure container runtime, has also been enabled on ACRN
-and can be orchestrated via Docker or Kubernetes.
-
-Rounding things out, we've also made significant improvements in
-configuration tools, added many new tutorial documents, and enabled ACRN
-on the QEMU machine emulator making it easier to try out and develop with
-ACRN.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind. It is optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open source platform. Check out
-:ref:`introduction` for more information.  All project ACRN source code
-is maintained in the https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-repository and includes folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device
-model, tools, and documentation. You can either download this source
-code as a zip or tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v2.0 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v2.0>`_)
-or use Git clone and checkout commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v2.0
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to
-correspond with a specific release: generated v2.0 documents can be
-found at https://projectacrn.github.io/2.0/.  Documentation for the
-latest (master) branch is found at
-https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-Follow the instructions in the :ref:`rt_industry_ubuntu_setup` to get
-started with ACRN.
-
-We recommend that all developers upgrade to ACRN release v2.0.

-
-ACRN Architecture Upgrade to Support Hybrid Mode
-================================================
-
-The ACRN architecture has evolved after its initial major 1.0 release in
-May 2019.  The new hybrid mode architecture has the flexibility to
-support both partition mode and sharing mode simultaneously, as shown in
-this architecture diagram:
-
-.. figure:: ../introduction/images/ACRN-V2-high-level-arch-1-0.75x.png
-   :align: center
-
-   ACRN V2 high-level architecture
-
-On the left, resources are partitioned and used by a pre-launched User
-Virtual Machine (VM), started by the hypervisor before the Service VM
-has been launched. It runs independent of other virtual machines, and
-can own its own dedicated hardware resources, such as a CPU core,
-memory, and I/O devices. Because other VMs may not even be aware of its
-existence, this pre-launched VM can be used as a safety VM where, for
-example, platform hardware failure detection code can run and take
-emergency actions if a system critical failure occurs.
-
-On the right, the remaining hardware resources are shared by the Service
-VM and User VMs.  The Service VM can access hardware resources directly
-(by running native drivers) and offer device sharing services to other
-User VMs by the Device Model.
-
-Also on the right, a special post-launched real-time VM (RTVM) can run a
-hard real-time OS, such as VxWorks*, Zephyr*, or Xenomai*. Because of
-its real-time capabilities, the RTVM can be used for soft PLC, IPC, or
-Robotics applications.
-
-New Hardware Platform Support
-=============================
-
-This release adds support for 8th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors (code
-name: Whiskey Lake). (See :ref:`hardware` for platform details.)
-
-Pre-Launched Safety VM Support
-==============================
-
-ACRN supports a pre-launched partitioned safety VM, isolated from the
-Service VM and other post-launched VM by using partitioned HW resources.
-For example, in the hybrid mode, a real-time Zephyr RTOS VM can be
-*pre-launched* by the hypervisor even before the Service VM is launched,
-and with its own dedicated resources to achieve a high level of
-isolation. This is designed to meet the needs of a Functional Safety OS.
-
-Post-Launched VM Support via OVMF
-=================================
-
-ACRN supports Open Virtual Machine Firmware (OVMF) as a virtual boot
-loader for the Service VM to launch post-launched VMs such as Windows,
-Linux, VxWorks, or Zephyr RTOS. Secure boot is also supported.
-
-Post-Launched Real-Time VM Support
-==================================
-
-ACRN supports a post-launched RTVM, which also uses partitioned hardware
-resources to ensure adequate real-time performance, as required for
-industrial use cases.
-
-Real-Time VM Performance Optimizations
-======================================
-
-ACRN 2.0 improves RTVM performance with these optimizations:
-
-* **Eliminate use of VM-Exit and its performance overhead:**
-   Use Local APIC (LAPIC) passthrough, Virtio Polling Mode Drivers (PMD),
-   and NMI interrupt notification technologies.
-
-* **Isolate the RTVM from the Service VM:**
-   The ACRN hypervisor uses RDT (Resource Director Technology)
-   allocation features such as CAT (Cache Allocation Technology), CDP (Code
-   Data Prioritization), and MBA (Memory Bandwidth Allocation) to provide
-   better isolation and prioritize critical resources, such as cache and
-   memory bandwidth, for RTVMs over other VMs.
-
-* **PCI Configuration space access emulation for passthrough devices in the hypervisor:**
-   The hypervisor provides the necessary emulation (such as config space)
-   of the passthrough PCI device during runtime for a DM-launched VM from
-   Service VM.
-
-* **More hypervisor-emulated devices:**
-   This includes vPCI and vPCI bridge emulation, and vUART.
-
-* **ART (Always Running Timer Virtualization):**
-   Ensure time is synchronized between Ptdev and vART
-
-CPU Sharing Support
-===================
-
-ACRN supports CPU Sharing to fully utilize the physical CPU resource
-across more virtual machines. ACRN enables a borrowed virtual time CPU
-scheduler in the hypervisor to make sure the physical CPU can be shared
-between VMs and support for yielding an idle vCPU when it's running a
-'HLT' or 'PAUSE' instruction.
-
-Large Selection of OSs for User VMs
-===================================
-
-ACRN now supports Windows* 10, Android*, Ubuntu*, Xenomai, VxWorks*,
-real-time Linux*, and Zephyr* RTOS.  ACRN's Windows support now conforms
-to the Microsoft* Hypervisor Top-Level Functional Specification (TLFS).
-ACRN 2.0 also improves overall Windows as a Guest (WaaG) stability and
-performance.
-
-GRUB Bootloader
-===============
-
-The ACRN hypervisor can boot from the popular GRUB bootloader using
-either the multiboot or multiboot2 prococol (the latter adding UEFI
-support). GRUB provides developers with booting flexibility.
-
-SR-IOV Support
-==============
-
-SR-IOV (Single Root Input/Output Virtualization) can isolate PCIe
-devices to offer performance similar to bare-metal levels. For a
-network adapter, for example, this enables network traffic to bypass the
-software switch layer in the virtualization stack and achieve network
-performance that is nearly the same as in a nonvirtualized environment.
-In this example, the ACRN Service VM supports a SR-IOV ethernet device
-through the Physical Function (PF) driver, and ensures that the SR-IOV
-Virtual Function (VF) device can passthrough to a post-launched VM.
-
-Graphics Passthrough Support
-============================
-
-ACRN supports GPU passthrough to dedicated User VM based on Intel GVT-d
-technology used to virtualize the GPU for multiple guest VMs,
-effectively providing near-native graphics performance in the VM.
-
-Shared Memory Based Inter-Vm Communication
-==========================================
-
-ACRN supports Inter-VM communication based on shared memory for
-post-launched VMs communicating via a Userspace I/O (UIO) interface.
-
-Configuration Tool Support
-==========================
-
-A new offline configuration tool helps developers deploy ACRN to
-different hardware systems with its own customization.
-
-Kata Containers Support
-=======================
-
-ACRN can launch a Kata container, a secure container runtime,  as a User VM.
-
-VM Orchestration
-================
-
-Libvirt is an open-source API, daemon, and management tool as a layer to
-decouple orchestrators and hypervisors. By adding a "ACRN driver", ACRN
-supports libvirt-based tools and orchestrators to configure a User VM's CPU
-configuration during VM creation.

-ACRN v2.1 (Aug 2020)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of the Project ACRN
-hypervisor version 2.1.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind. It is optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open source platform. Check out
-:ref:`introduction` introduction for more information.  All project ACRN
-source code is maintained in the
-https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor repository and includes
-folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device model, tools, and
-documentation. You can either download this source code as a zip or
-tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v2.1 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v2.1>`_) or
-use Git clone and checkout commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v2.1
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to
-correspond with a specific release: generated v2.1 documents can be
-found at https://projectacrn.github.io/2.1/.  Documentation for the
-latest under-development branch is found at
-https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-
-ACRN v2.1 requires Ubuntu 18.04.  Follow the instructions in the
-:ref:`rt_industry_ubuntu_setup` to get started with ACRN.
-
-We recommend that all developers upgrade to ACRN release v2.1.
-
-What's New in v2.1
-******************
-
-* Preempt-RT Linux has been validated as a pre-launched realtime VM. See
-  :ref:`pre_launched_rt` for more details.
-
-* A Trusted Platform Module (TPM) MMIO device can be passthroughed to a
-  pre-launched VM (with some limitations discussed in
-  :ref:`mmio-device-passthrough`).  Previously passthrough was only
-  supported for PCI devices.
-
-* Open Virtual Machine Firmware (OVMF) now uses a Local Advanced
-  Programmable Interrupt Controller (LAPIC) timer as its local time
-  instead of the High Precision Event Timer (HPET). This provides the
-  working timer service for the realtime virtual machine (RTVM) booting
-  process.
-
-* Grub is the recommended bootloader for ACRN.  For more information,
-  see :ref:`using_grub`.
-
-Improvements, updates, and corrections have been made throughout our documentation,
-including these:
-
-* :ref:`contribute_guidelines`
-* :ref:`hv_rdt`
-* :ref:`ivshmem-hld`
-* :ref:`mmio-device-passthrough`
-* :ref:`virtio-net`

-ACRN v2.2 (Sep 2020)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of the Project ACRN
-hypervisor version 2.2.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with

-
-ACRN v2.2 requires Ubuntu 18.04.  Follow the instructions in the
-:ref:`rt_industry_ubuntu_setup` to get started with ACRN.
-
-
-What's New in v2.2
-******************
-
-Elkhart Lake and Tiger Lake processor support.
-  At `Intel Industrial iSummit 2020
-  <https://newsroom.intel.com/press-kits/intel-industrial-summit-2020>`_,
-  Intel announced the latest additions to their
-  enhanced-for-IoT Edge portfolio: the Intel |reg| Atom |reg| x6000E Series, Intel |reg|
-  Pentium |reg| and Intel |reg| Celeron |reg| N and J Series (all codenamed Elkhart Lake),
-  and 11th Gen Intel |reg| Core |trade| processors (codenamed Tiger Lake-UP3). The ACRN
-  team is pleased to announce that this ACRN v2.2 release already supports
-  these processors.
-
-  * Support for time deterministic applications with new features, e.g.,
-    Time Coordinated Computing and Time Sensitive Networking
-  * Support for functional safety with new features, e.g., Intel Safety Island
-
-On Elkhart Lake, ACRN can boot using Slim Bootloader
-  `Slim Bootloader <https://slimbootloader.github.io/>`_ is an
-  alternative bootloader to UEFI firmware.
-
-Shared memory based inter-VM communication (ivshmem) is extended
-  ivshmem now supports all kinds of VMs including pre-launched VM, Service VM, and
-  other User VMs. (See :ref:`ivshmem-hld`)
-
-**CPU sharing supports pre-launched VM.**
-
-**RTLinux with preempt-RT Linux kernel 5.4 is validated both as a pre-launched and post-launched VM.**
-
-**ACRN hypervisor can emulate MSI-X based on physical MSI with multiple vectors.**
-
-Staged removal of deprivileged boot mode support.
-  ACRN has supported deprivileged boot mode to ease the integration of
-  Linux distributions such as Clear Linux. Unfortunately, deprivileged boot
-  mode limits ACRN's scalability and is unsuitable for ACRN's hybrid
-  hypervisor mode. In ACRN v2.2, deprivileged boot mode is no longer the default
-  and will be completely removed in ACRN v2.3. We're focusing instead
-  on using multiboot2 boot (via Grub). Multiboot2 is not supported in
-  Clear Linux though, so we have chosen Ubuntu (and Yocto Project) as the
-  preferred Service VM OSs moving forward.
-
-Document Updates
-****************
-
-New and updated reference documents are available, including:
-
-.. rst-class:: rst-columns2

-* :ref:`asm_coding_guidelines`
-* :ref:`c_coding_guidelines`

-
-Because we're dropping deprivileged boot mode support in the next v2.3
-release, we're also switching our Service VM of choice away from Clear
-Linux. We've begun this transition in the v2.2 documentation and removed
-some Clear Linux-specific tutorials.  Deleted documents are still
-available in the `version-specific v2.1 documentation

-
-
-What's New in v2.3
-******************
-
-Enhanced GPU passthrough (GVT-d)
-  GPU passthrough (GVT-d) to Windows as a guest is now enabled for 11th Gen
-  Intel® Core™ processors (codenamed Tiger Lake-UP3).
-
-Shared memory based inter-VM communication (ivshmem) is extended
-  ivshmem now supports interrupts (See :ref:`ivshmem-hld`).
-
-Enhanced vUART support
-  Added PCI vUART (up to 8) for VM-to-VM communication.  Legacy vUART
-  (0x3F8-like) is available for console (debugging) support.
-
-End-to-end secure boot improvement
-  OVMF can be loaded now as two blobs, one for code and the other for data.
-  The code blob can be verified by the Service VM's ``dm-verity`` as
-  a step in the end-to-end secure boot.
-
-Enhanced system shutdown
-  The pre-launched VM may now initiate a system shutdown or reset.
-
-Removed deprivileged boot mode support
-  ACRN has supported deprivileged boot mode to ease the integration of
-  Linux distributions such as Clear Linux. Unfortunately, deprivileged boot
-  mode limits ACRN's scalability and is unsuitable for ACRN's hybrid
-  hypervisor mode. In ACRN v2.2, deprivileged boot mode was no longer the default
-  and completely removed in ACRN v2.3. We're focusing instead
-  on using the simpler and more scalable multiboot2 boot (via Grub).

-Extensive work was done to redesign how ACRN
-configuration is handled, update the build process to use the new
-configuration system, and update the corresponding documentation. This is a
-significant change and improvement to how you configure ACRN but also impacts
-existing projects, as explained in the next section.
-
-We've also validated the hybrid_rt scenario on the next generation of Intel®
-Core™ processors (codenamed Elkhart Lake) and enabled software SRAM and cache
-locking for real time performance on Elkhart Lake.
-
-ACRN Configuration and Build
-============================
-
-The following major changes on ACRN configuration and build process have been
-integrated into v2.4:
-
- - Metadata of configuration entries, including documentation and attributes,
-   has been removed from ``scenario`` XMLs.
- - The C sources generated from ``board`` and ``scenario`` XMLs are no longer
-   maintained in the repository. Instead they'll be generated as part of the
-   hypervisor build. Users can now find them under ``configs/`` of the build
-   directory.
- - Kconfig is no longer used for configuration. Related build targets, such as
-   ``defconfig``, now apply to the configuration files in XML.
- - The ``make`` command-line variables ``BOARD`` and ``BOARD_FILE`` have been
-   unified. Users can now specify ``BOARD=xxx`` when invoking ``make`` with
-   ``xxx`` being either a board name or a (relative or absolute) path to a
-   board XML file. ``SCENARIO`` and ``SCENARIO_FILE`` have been unified in the same
-   way.
-
-For complete instructions to get started with the new build system, refer to
-:ref:`getting-started-building`. For an introduction on the concepts and
-workflow of the new configuration mechanism, refer to
-:ref:`acrn_configuration_tool`.
-
-Upgrading to v2.4 From Previous Releases
-****************************************
-
-We highly recommended that you follow the instructions below to
-upgrade to v2.4 from previous ACRN releases.
-
-.. _upgrade_python:
-
-Additional Dependencies
-=======================
-
-Python version 3.6 or higher is required to build ACRN v2.4. You can check the version of
-Python you are using by:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   $ python3 --version
-   Python 3.5.2
-
-Only when the reported version is less than 3.6 (as is the case in the example above) do
-you need an upgrade. The first (and preferred) choice is to install the latest
-Python 3 from the official package repository:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   $ sudo apt install python3
-   ...
-   $ python --version
-   Python 3.8.8
-
-If this does not get you an appropriate version, you may use the deadsnakes PPA
-(using the instructions below) or build from source yourself.
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
-   $ sudo apt-get update
-   $ sudo apt install python3.9
-   $ python --version
-   Python 3.9.2
-
-In addition, the following new tools and packages are needed to build ACRN v2.4:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   $ sudo apt install libxml2-utils xsltproc
-   $ sudo pip3 install lxml xmlschema
-
-.. note::
-   This is not the complete list of tools required to build ACRN. Refer to
-   :ref:`getting-started-building` for a complete guide to get started from
-   scratch.
-
-Configuration File Format
-=========================
-
-Starting with release v2.4, Kconfig is no longer used, and the contents of scenario
-XML files have been simplified. You need to upgrade your own Kconfig-format files
-or scenario XML files if you maintain any.
-
-For Kconfig-format file, you must translate your configuration to a scenario
-XML file where all previous Kconfig configuration entries are also available. Refer
-to :ref:`scenario-config-options` for the full list of settings available in
-scenario XML files.
-
-For scenario XML files, you need to remove the obsolete metadata in those files. You can use
-the following XML transformation (in XSLT) for this purpose:
-
-.. code-block:: xml
-
-   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
-   <xsl:stylesheet
-       version="1.0"
-       xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
-
-     <xsl:template match="@desc" />
-     <xsl:template match="@configurable | @multiselect | @readonly" />
-
-     <!-- The identity template -->
-     <xsl:template match="@*|node()">
-       <xsl:copy>
-         <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
-       </xsl:copy>
-     </xsl:template>
-   </xsl:stylesheet>
-
-After saving the snippet above to a file (e.g., ``remove_metadata.xsl``), you
-can use ``xsltproc`` to clean and transform your own scenario XML file:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   $ xsltproc -o <path/to/output> remove_metadata.xsl <path/to/your/XML>
-
-New Configuration Options
-=========================
-
-The following element is added to scenario XML files in v2.4:
-
- - :option:`hv.FEATURES.ENFORCE_TURNOFF_AC`
-
-To upgrade a v2.3-compliant scenario XML file, you can use the following XML
-transformation. The indentation in this transformation are carefully tweaked for
-the best indentation in converted XML files.
-
-.. code-block:: xml
-
-   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
-   <xsl:stylesheet
-       version="1.0"
-       xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
-     <xsl:template match="hv/FEATURES/MULTIBOOT2">
-       <xsl:copy>
-         <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
-       </xsl:copy>
-       <xsl:if test="not(../ENFORCE_TURNOFF_AC)">
-         <xsl:text>
-               </xsl:text>
-         <ENFORCE_TURNOFF_AC>y</ENFORCE_TURNOFF_AC>
-       </xsl:if>
-     </xsl:template>
-
-     <!-- The identity template -->
-     <xsl:template match="@*|node()">
-       <xsl:copy>
-         <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
-       </xsl:copy>
-     </xsl:template>
-   </xsl:stylesheet>
-
-Build Commands
-==============
-
-We recommend you update the usage of variables ``BOARD_FILE`` and
-``SCENARIO_FILE``, which are being deprecated,  and ``RELEASE``:
-
- - ``BOARD_FILE`` should be replaced with ``BOARD``. You should not specify
-   ``BOARD`` and ``BOARD_FILE`` at the same time.
- - Similarly, ``SCENARIO_FILE`` should be replaced with ``SCENARIO``.
- - The value of ``RELEASE`` should be either ``y`` (previously was ``1``) or
-   ``n`` (previously was ``0``).
-
-``BOARD_FILE`` and ``SCENARIO_FILE`` can still be used but will take effect
-only if ``BOARD`` and ``SCENARIO`` are not defined. They will be deprecated in
-a future release.
-
-Patches on Generated Sources
-============================
-
-The C files generated from board and scenario XML files have been removed from the
-repository in v2.4. Instead they will be generated in the build output when building the
-hypervisor.
-
-Typically you should be able to customize your scenario by modifying the
-scenario XML file rather than the generated files directly. But if that is not
-possible, you can still register one or more patches that will be applied to
-the generated files by following the instructions in
-:ref:`acrn_makefile_targets`.
-
-Modifying generated files is not a recommended practice.
-If you find a configuration that is not flexible enough to meet your
-needs, please let us know by sending mail to `the acrn-dev mailing
-list <https://lists.projectacrn.org/g/acrn-dev>`_ or submitting a
-`GitHub issue <https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/issues>`_.
-
-Document Updates
-****************
-
-With the changes to ACRN configuration noted above, we made substantial updates
-to the ACRN documentation around configuration and options, as listed here:
-
-.. rst-class:: rst-columns2
-
-* :ref:`hv-config`
-* :ref:`scenario-config-options`
-* :ref:`acrn_configuration_tool`
-* :ref:`vuart_config`
-* :ref:`getting-started-building`
-* :ref:`acrn-dm_parameters`
-* :ref:`kernel-parameters`
-
-Additional new or updated reference documents are also available, including:
-
-.. rst-class:: rst-columns2
-
-* :ref:`rt_industry_ubuntu_setup`
-* :ref:`setup_openstack_libvirt`
-* :ref:`using_windows_as_uos`
-
-We've also made edits throughout the documentation to improve clarity,
-formatting, and presentation throughout the ACRN documentation.
-
-Deprivileged Boot Mode Support
-==============================
-
-Because we dropped deprivileged boot mode support (in v2.3), we also
-switched our Service VM of choice away from Clear Linux and have
-removed Clear Linux-specific tutorials.  Deleted documents are still
-available in the `version-specific v2.1 documentation
-<https://projectacrn.github.io/v2.1/>`_.

-
-ACRN v2.5 (Jun 2021)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of the Project ACRN hypervisor
-version 2.5.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind. It is optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open-source platform. See the
-:ref:`introduction` introduction for more information.
-
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the
-https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor repository and includes
-folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device model, tools, and
-documentation. You can either download this source code as a zip or
-tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v2.5 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v2.5>`_) or
-use Git ``clone`` and ``checkout`` commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v2.5
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to
-correspond with a specific release: generated v2.5 documents can be
-found at https://projectacrn.github.io/2.5/.  Documentation for the
-latest under-development branch is found at
-https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-
-ACRN v2.5 requires Ubuntu 18.04.  Follow the instructions in the
-:ref:`gsg` to get started with ACRN.
-
-
-What's New in v2.5
-******************
-
-Nested Virtualization Technology Preview
-  A brand-new concept, nested virtualization, is introduced as a preview in this
-  v2.5 release. Nested virtualization lets you run virtual machine instances
-  inside of a guest VM that's running on the ACRN hypervisor. It's designed to
-  leverage the KVM/QEMU community's rich feature set while keeping ACRN's unique
-  advantages in partition mode and hybrid mode. Read more in the
-  :ref:`nested_virt` advanced guide.
-
-Secure Boot Using EFI Stub
-  EFI stub, previously retired in favor of using direct boot, returns as an
-  alternative to end-to-end secure boot with Grub. The hypervisor, Service VM
-  kernel, and prelaunched VM kernel are packaged into a single ``acrn.efi`` blob
-  as an EFI application that can then be verified by the EFI BIOS. Read more in
-  the :ref:`how-to-enable-acrn-secure-boot-with-efi-stub` and
-  :ref:`how-to-enable-acrn-secure-boot-with-grub` advanced guides.
-
-Modularization Improvements
-  :ref:`ACRN hypervisor modularization <modularity>` has been improved to be more
-  scalable, including change to multiboot, interrupt handling, paging and memory
-  management, and timers, with more to come in future releases.
-
-Configuration and Build Process Improvements
-  The ACRN configuration and build process continues to evolve from the changes
-  made in the previous releases.  For instructions using the build system, refer
-  to :ref:`getting-started-building`. For an introduction on the concepts and
-  workflow of the configuration tools and processes, refer to
-  :ref:`acrn_configuration_tool`.
-
-
-Upgrading to v2.5 From Previous Releases
-****************************************
-
-We highly recommended that you follow these instructions to
-upgrade to v2.5 from previous ACRN releases.
-
-Generate New Board XML
-======================
-
-Board XML files, generated by ACRN board inspector, contain board information
-that is essential to build ACRN. Compared to previous versions, ACRN v2.5
-extends the schema of board XMLs to summarize board information more
-systematically. You must regenerate your board XML file using the new
-board inspector when you upgrade to ACRN v2.5 to get the additional information
-needed for configuration.
-
-Before using the new board inspector, ensure you have Python >= 3.6 on the target
-board and install the ``lxml`` PyPI package. Refer to :ref:`upgrade_python` for
-detailed steps to check and upgrade your Python version. The ``lxml`` package can be
-installed by executing the following command:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   sudo pip3 install lxml
-
-.. note::
-   Refer to :ref:`gsg` for a complete list of tools required to
-   run the board inspector.
-
-With the prerequisites done, copy the entire board inspector folder from
-``misc/config_tools/board_inspector`` to the target board, ``cd`` to that
-directory on the target, and run the board inspector tool using::
-
-   sudo python3 cli.py <my_board_name>
-
-This will generate ``<my_board_name>.xml`` in the current working directory.
-You'll need to copy that XML file back to the host system to continue
-development.
-
-Add New Configuration Options
-=============================
-
-In v2.5, the following elements are added to scenario XML files:
-
-- ``hv.FEATURES.NVMX_ENABLED``
-- :option:`vm.PTM`
-
-The following element is renamed:
-
-- :option:`hv.FEATURES.SSRAM.SSRAM_ENABLED` (was ``hv.FEATURES.PSRAM.PSRAM_ENABLED`` in v2.4)
-
-Constraints on values of the following element have changed:
-
-- ``vm.guest_flags.guest_flag`` no longer accepts an empty text. For VMs
-  with no guest flag set, set the value to ``0``.

-What's New in v2.6
-******************
-
-Nested Virtualization Technology Performance Tuning
-  The performance of nested virtualization, a feature first introduced as a
-  preview in the v2.5 release, was improved. CPU and I/O performance of level 2
-  virtual machines (for example, a VM running on a KVM/QEMU VM that itself is a
-  VM on ACRN hypervisor) is now on par with a VM running on KVM on bare metal.
-  Read more in the :ref:`nested_virt` tutorial.
-
-Support loading OSs in ELF format
-  ACRN hypervisor now can load OS images packed in ELF (Executable and Linkable
-  Format). This adds flexibility to OSs such as Zephyr running in pre-launched
-  VMs.

-
-Generate New Board XML
-======================
-
-Board XML files, generated by ACRN board inspector, contain board information
-that is essential to build ACRN. Compared to previous versions, ACRN v2.6 adds
-the following hardware information to board XMLs to support new features and
-fixes.
-
-  - Maximum width of physical and linear addresses
-  - Device objects in the ACPI namespace
-  - Routing of PCI interrupt pins
-  - Number of requested vectors of MSI-capable PCI devices

-ACRN v2.7 (Dec 2021)
-####################
-
-We are pleased to announce the release of the Project ACRN hypervisor
-version 2.7.
-
-ACRN is a flexible, lightweight reference hypervisor that is built with
-real-time and safety-criticality in mind. It is optimized to streamline
-embedded development through an open-source platform. See the
-:ref:`introduction` introduction for more information.
-
-All project ACRN source code is maintained in the
-https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor repository and includes
-folders for the ACRN hypervisor, the ACRN device model, tools, and
-documentation. You can download this source code either as a zip or
-tar.gz file (see the `ACRN v2.7 GitHub release page
-<https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/releases/tag/v2.7>`_) or
-use Git ``clone`` and ``checkout`` commands::
-
-   git clone https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor
-   cd acrn-hypervisor
-   git checkout v2.7
-
-The project's online technical documentation is also tagged to
-correspond with a specific release: generated v2.7 documents can be
-found at https://projectacrn.github.io/2.7/.  Documentation for the
-latest development branch is found at https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/.
-
-ACRN v2.7 requires Ubuntu 18.04.  Follow the instructions in the
-:ref:`gsg` to get started with ACRN.
-
-
-What's New in v2.7
-******************
-
-API and Documentation Updates for User VM and Service VM Terminology
-   More often than not, the terms "UOS" and "SOS" referred to the User VM and
-   Service VM components of an ACRN Hypervisor system and not to the VM's OS.
-   We've updated the hypervisor APIs and documentation to properly reflect these
-   names and removed uses of UOS and SOS.
-
-   In the code, uses of ``uos`` and ``sos`` in names were changed to ``user_vm``
-   and ``service_vm`` respectively.  When specifically referring to the OS of
-   these VMs, we now use ``user_vm_os`` and ``service_vm_os``. These changes
-   appear throughout the C files, as well as in the ``.xml`` configuration
-   files.
-
-   For example, here are examples of old and new names:
-
-   .. list-table::
-      :widths: 1 1
-      :header-rows: 1
-
-      * - Old Name
-        - New Name
-
-      * - ``#define SOS_SOCKET_PORT 0x2000``
-        - ``#define SERVICE_VM_SOCKET_PORT 0x2000``
-
-      * - ``pkt->uos_active``
-        - ``pkt->user_vm_active``
-
-      * - ``static uint16_t get_uos_count(void)``
-        - ``static uint16_t get_user_vm_count(void)``
-
-      * - ``static uint16_t get_phy_addr(uint8_t uos_id, uint16_t vaddr)``
-        - ``static uint16_t get_phy_addr(uint8_t user_vmid, uint16_t vaddr)``
-
-Update Scenario Names
-   The pre-defined scenario names were changed to be indicative of their
-   properties instead of an example use.  The "industry" scenario is now called
-   "shared", the "logical partitioning" scenario is now called "partitioned",
-   and the "hybrid" scenario name remains the same.
-
-   Here are the three configuration scenarios:
-
-   * **Shared**: The physical hardware resources can be shared among
-     post-launched User VMs. The Service VM (Device Model) provides device
-     emulation for the shared virtual devices.
-   * **Partitioned**: The physical resources are strictly dedicated to
-     individual pre-launched User VMs and there is no Service VM needed.
-   * **Hybrid**: The physical resource are dedicated to pre-launched User
-     VMs and the Service VM provides resource emulation and sharing for
-     post-launched User VMs, all in the same system configuration.
-
-User-Friendly VM names
-   Instead of using a UUID as the User VM identifier, we're now using a
-   user-friendly VM name.
-
-Extend Use of CAT Cache Tuning to VMs
-   In previous releases, Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) was available only
-   at the hypervisor level and with per-pCPU granularity.  In this v2.7 release,
-   each VM with exclusive cache resources can partition them with
-   per-thread granularity and allocate cache resources to prioritized tasks.
-
-Expand Passthrough Device Use Cases
-   We now allow *pre-launched* VMs (in partitioned or hybrid scenarios) to use
-   graphics device passthrough for improved performance, a feature previously
-   available to only post-launched VMs.
-
-   Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 and its associated resource can now be
-   passthrough to *post-launched* VMs, a feature previously available to
-   only pre-launched VMs..
-
-Upgrading to v2.7 From Previous Releases
-****************************************
-
-We highly recommended that you follow these instructions to
-upgrade to v2.7 from previous ACRN releases.
-
-Generate New Board XML
-======================
-
-Board XML files, generated by ACRN board inspector, contain board information
-that is essential to build ACRN. Compared to previous versions, ACRN v2.7 adds
-the following hardware information to board XMLs to support new features and
-fixes.
-
-  - Always initialize ``hw_ignore`` when parsing ``DMAR``.
-
-The new board XML can be generated using the ACRN board inspector in the same
-way as ACRN v2.6. Refer to :ref:`acrn_config_workflow` for a complete list of
-steps to deploy and run the tool.
-
-Update Configuration Options
-============================
-
-In v2.7, the following elements are added to scenario XML files.
-
-- :option:`vm.name` (This is a required element. Names must be unique, up to 15
-  characters long, and contain no space characters.)
-- :option:`hv.CAPACITIES.MAX_VM_NUM` (Default value is ``8``)
-- :option:`hv.FEATURES.RDT.VCAT_ENABLED` (Default value is ``n``)
-
-The following elements were removed.
-
-- ``KATA_VM`` VM type.
-- ``hv.CAPACITIES.MAX_EFI_MMAP_ENTRIES``
-- ``hv.MEMORY.HV_RAM_SIZE``  (Hypervisor RAM size is now computed by the linker)
-
-As part of using consistent names for UOS and SOS, we also change configuration
-option names or values using these obsolete terms:
-
-- The :option:`vm.vm_type` option value ``SOS_VM`` is now ``SERVICE_VM``
-- The ``vm.legacy_vuart.base`` option value ``SOS_VM_COM1_BASE`` is now
-  ``SERVICE_VM_COM1_BASE``, with the same change for COM2, COM3, and COM4 base
-  and for the ``vm.legacy_vuart.irq`` option values.
-
-In v2.7, the ``acrn-dm`` command line parameter ``--cpu_affinity`` is now mandatory
-when launching a User VM. If the launch XML settings, used to generate the launch
-scripts, do not specify a ``cpu_affinity`` value, the ACRN Configurator will look for
-it from the scenario XML settings. Verify that your existing launch scripts
-specify this ``--cpu_affinity`` parameter as ``acrn-dm`` will now complain if it's
-missing.
-
-Document Updates
-****************
-
-We've updated references throughout the documentation to use "Service VM" and
-"User VM" instead of "SOS" and "UOS" respectively.
-
-We've also made edits throughout the documentation to improve clarity,
-formatting, and presentation:
