Description
This issue tracks the development of the support of the virtio-pmem
device in Firecracker.
virtio-pmem
is a visualized persistent memory device which is backed by the memory mapped file on the host and presented to the guest as a memory region. This allows the guest to directly read/write to the underlying file without driver/VMM intervention and without guest page cache usage.
Firecracker support for this device will include:
- Ability to specify virtio-pmem device visible to the guest
- Ability to configure virtio-pmem device to be a root device, so VMs will be able to boot from this device
- Ability to configure virtio-pmem device to mmap the underlying file as read only
All additional details and usage recommendations will be included in the accompanying documentation.
