在Xen上可以运行的最小OS，该miniOS直接用汇编程序编写，实现了Xen的hypercall的调用。下面是它的实现代码：

# helloworld.s

.section __xen_guest
.ascii "GUEST_OS=MyOS"
.ascii ",XEN_VER=xen-3.0"
.ascii ",HYPERCALL_PAGE=0x2"
.ascii ",LOADER=generic"
.ascii ",PT_MODE_WRITABLE"
.byte 0
.text# text section为可执行的程序代码(executable program code)
.globl _start# Guest OS的入口为_start
_start:
cld#cld(Clear Decimal Flag) 设置ALU为二进制模式
#设置hypercall 参数
movl $18, %eax # __Hypervisor_console_io
movl $0, %ebx # CONSOLEIO_write
movl $hello_message_len, %ecx # buffer length
movl $hello_message, %edx # buffer virtual address
int $0x82#使用int $0x82执行hypercall

#调用关机和关闭电源hypercall
movl $6, %eax # __Hypervisor_sched_op_compat
movl $2, %ebx # SCHEDOP_shutdown
movl $0, %ecx # SHUTDOWN_poweroff
int $0x82
hang:
jmp hang # shouldn't get here
.data# 数据段(data section)
hello_message: .ascii "This is the hello world program./n"
hello_message_len = . -hello_message#hello消息的长度，.表示当前offset

编译时使用的Makefile为

helloworld: helloworld.s
as -o helloworld.o -a=helloworld.l helloworld.s
ld -Ttext 0x100000 -o helloworld.elf helloworld.o

该虚拟机的配置文件为

kernel = "helloworld.elf"

memory = 32

name = "HelloWorld"

on_crash = 'destroy'#当domain crash时指定guest的行动(behaviour)
