It looks more like JEOS take N. A linux distribution for running just on virtio devices, and the authors have done work on a qemu replacement with less attack surface (though I can't find the source for that on clearlinux.org).

See one of the comments below - for reference kvmtool is part of the kernel source tree, you'll find patches and sources in the linux-container package.

Sadly it hasn't been merged, and Linus has effectively said it never will be. So it'll likely get split out into its own repository independent of the kernel source at some point.

It would be easier to use if it was standalone rather than a whole linux tree to clone.

Yea I completely agree with you on this one. That didn't cross my mind, but when I read your comment the light when off in my head for JEOS.
