+'gunyah' accelerator (``gunyah``)
+=================================
+
+Gunyah is a high performance, scalable and flexible hypervisor built for
+demanding battery powered, real-time, safety and security use cases.
+
+The Gunyah Hypervisor open source project provides a reference Type-1 
hypervisor
+configuration suitable for general purpose hosting of multiple trusted and
+dependent VMs. Further information on open-source version of Gunyah Hypervisor
+can be obtained from:
+
+https://github.com/quic/gunyah-hypervisor
+
+To get started with open-source version of Gunyah Hypervisor, refer to the
+instructions available at:
+
+https://github.com/quic/gunyah-support-scripts
+
+Build and testing
+-----------------
+
+Patch and build Gunyah hypervisor
+`````````````````````````````````
+
+Refer to the information present in **Quick Start** guide to get sources for
+Gunyah open-source hypervisor:
+
+https://github.com/quic/gunyah-support-scripts/blob/develop/quickstart.md
+
+Resource Manager VM (RM) is a privileged VM that acts as an extension of Gunyah
+hypervisor. It assists the hypervisor in various tasks related to creation and
+management of VMs. More information on RM is provided at:
+
+https://github.com/quic/gunyah-resource-manager
+
+Instructions provided in **Quick Start** guide will include cloning the sources
+for RM (under 'resource-manager' directory) and hypervisor (under 'hyp'
+directory). These directories will be found inside the docker image created as
+part of steps provided under **Building the Docker Image**.
+
+Before building hypervisor, as described under **Building a Gunyah Hypervisor
+image** section of **Quick Start** guide, apply below changes to hypervisor and
+RM on which 'gunyah' accelerator currently depends. These changes are being
+discussed with maintainers and if accepted this document will be modified
+appropriately.

+Patch and build Linux kernel
+````````````````````````````
+
+**Building the Docker Image** step of **Quick Start** guide would have cloned
+the sources for Linux kernel (under '~/linux/src/linux' directory in docker
+image) and also applied below patches.
+
+https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230613172054.3959700-1-quic_eberman@quicinc.com/
+
+Above patches provide a kernel driver that interacts with Gunyah hypervisor and
+assists a VMM (like Qemu) in creation and management of a VM. Apply below patch
+to Linux kernel, as the 'gunyah' accelerator in Qemu depends on it.

+repository) into the docker image.
+
+Follow the instructions under **SVM booting Linux** to prepare a virtual disk

+CrosVM, ignore the CrosVM related steps, and instead copy these files to

+'~/utils/bldextfs.sh' script to build root image.

+        -kernel ./Image
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+Below features are not yet supported.
+
+* SMP (PSCI support needs to be added)
+* virtio-pci (support for which in Qemu seems to rely heavily on KVM, which
+  needs to be made multi-hypervisor friendly).
