Review and Analysis of Performance Metrics of the Xen Hypervisor on Zynq® UltraScale+™ MPSoC - Jarvis Roach & Benjamin Sanda, DornerWorks

Performance metrics for Xen running on the targeted hardware platform is a significant factor in determining whether a project can afford the overhead of using a hypervisor as part of its overall system design. The release of the Xilinx Zynq® UltraScale+™ MPSoC based ZCU-102 development boards, marketed for the embedded design space, earlier this year enabled DornerWorks to measure key Xen-related performance metrics using the freely available, open source, Xen Zynq Distribution (XZD). These metrics include Xen boot times, Xen interrupt latency, and domain context switch times. DornerWorks will review the performance measurements collected, the methods used for collecting those metrics, and discuss the implications of the results, including how the data might be used to estimate performance of applications running as guests on that platform.
