At Genode Labs, we primarily focus on NOVA, base-hw, and seL4. All these
kernels are third-generation modern microkernels [1]. For using Genode
on x86 PC hardware, NOVA is the best way to go right now.

Genode is also able to run on Fiasco.OC but we don't actively facilitate
it. E.g., we dropped the support for L4Linux (Fiasco.OC-specific
paravirtualized Linux) earlier this year [2].


What is the ARM alternative to Fiasco.OC? That is supporting micro-kernel subjects as well as virtual machines.

Will it make sense if we (my team) supports Fiasco.OC if suitable microkernel is not available for ARM?

In case of X86 Muen seems to be the best as I am interested in formal verification like everyone else. Fiasco.OC is troublesome when it comes to formal verification.
