Multikernel Technologies releases mklinux v7.0-mk2, running several Linux kernels on one server

Multikernel Technologies has published the first public version of its multikernel Linux tree, mklinux v7.0-mk2, which lets one physical machine run multiple independent Linux kernels simultaneously, each with dedicated CPU and memory allocations. A host kernel manages hardware assignment via device tree overlays and boots new kernel instances directly onto hardware using kexec, bypassing any hypervisor layer. The initial release supports only x86_64 systems, though the company says the architecture-specific code is built to allow future ports.
