There are features or bug fixes that are not yet present in BHyVe shipped with certain FreeBSD versions, and this repository holds a port to make them accessible. Changes here are upstreamed to the FreeBSD ports tree time to time.
Currently, the following extensions are offered over the vanilla
bhyve
distribution available from the base system:
After cloning the repository, the port can be installed as follows.
# cd sysutils/bhyve+
# make install clean
Note that the port is going to install a version of vmm.ko
under
/boot/modules/
which must be explicitly referenced when using
kldload(8)
for loading the module.
