Hi, I'd like to share my experience with folder sharing to a VM via virtio-9p. I've tried to use it on a home server: Host: FreeBSD 14.2 with vm-bhyve Guest: Debian 12.9 The guest runs a Lyrion music server and the music files are on the host in a ZFS dataset. So my idea was to use virtio-9p...

Hello. Bhyve Host: FreeBSD 14.1 Guest: FreeBSD 14.2 (kernel built with "device virtio_gpu") What needs to be done to have a virtual GPU appear inside the guest on FreeBSD 14.2? Judging by this diagram, you need to install the virglrenderer package on the host. As a guest, as I understand it...

Hello. Host: FreeBSD 14.1 bhyve guest: FreeBSD 14.1 How is it possible to mount a directory via 9p protocol in a freebsd guest? I'm using the vm-bhyve wrapper. The official vm-bhyve documentation says: VM guest conf: disk1_type="virtio-9p" disk1_name="cache=/var/cache/pkg/" disk1_dev="custom"...

Anyone having luck getting AlmaLinux 9.5 to run under bhyve on FreeBSD 14.1-RELEASE-p5 using vm-bhyve 1.6? I had a 9.4 instance running fine (installed as a 9.3 about a year ago with a number of dnf upgrades in that time). Last upgrade was to go from 9.4 to 9.5 and that stopped working about a...

Hello all! I have set up the following environment: vmrun.sh -d disk.img -t tap0 -G 1234 thevm Then I have moved to where I have the kernel compiled and ran gdb from there. In the VM, I have also run dtrace -n 'fbt:kernel:vtnet_tick:entry' And I can see that it fires regularly. The...

I came across this line on the wiki for Windows on bhyve, which I apparently forgot somewhere along the way... From https://wiki.freebsd.org/bhyve/Windows: Can somebody clarify the reason for this, and what the the failure mode looks like--what can occur if this rule is not followed? How...

Hi, I am setting up a very simple FreeBSD hypervisor in my homelab mainly for learning purpose as I am new to FreeBSD, Bhyve and ZFS. - The host is pretty small: 12Gb of RAM and 500Gb of disk - I opted for a very simple setup for now: ZFS with one disk and one zpool (zroot). - I use vm-bhyve -...

Hello, I am doing kernel development and would like to debug my version of the kernel. Can I do that with the help of debugger and bhyve, to run in a containerized environment? Thanks.

I understand that this might not be viewed very favorably, but I couldn't really find much about this. I read a few threads on this Forum about USB/IP but there doesn't seem to be much support for the protocol on BSD? I'm trying to create a VM to which most of my USB ports will be passed...

I'm trying to reach a point where I can do online debugging with kgdb of the FreeBSD kernel and it's modules in order to learn more about the system and take on a small projects in the system development. I have searched through the whole internet for the complete guide on how to do it however...

Hi there. I've created a Alpline VM using Bhyve. I'm using WLAN0 so I am using NAT. My problem is the host and VM can ping each other but the VM can't see the Internet. I've setup the network with: ifconfig bridge create name natif up ifconfig tap0 create up ifconfig natif addm tap0 ifconfig...

Hello all, wondering if someone more experienced can lend me a hand to figure out why my VMs don't have access to a vlan network when the tagging is being done by the guest OS instead of router (ingress/egress). I have a somewhat simple setup router ---- igb0 ---- pub-br0 ---- vm100 router =...

I am in the process of moving off of Proxmox and into FreeBSD 14.1 / bhyve for my home vm server. (Using vm-bhyve) I have noticed that Windows 11 guests seem to use considerably more cpu resources at idle than my Linux, Windows 10, and Windows Server 2022 VMs. I have 1 migrated W11 VM, and 1...
