Next Steps

Phase 9: QEMU Runtime Verification

The next phase is to verify the implementation under QEMU. This will involve:

1. Boot tests — Verify the hypervisor boots correctly
2. Syscall tests — Verify POSIX syscalls work correctly
3. Memory tests — Verify memory allocation and deallocation
4. Device tests — Verify device emulation works correctly
5. Performance tests — Verify performance meets requirements
