Linux The Xen virtual machine monitor was recently merged into the upcoming 2.6.23 Linux kernel in a series of patches from Jeremy Fitzhardinge. The project was originally started as a research project at the University of Cambridge, and has been repeatedly discussed as a merge candidate for the mainline Linux kernel.

The only advantage of this integration is that mainstream Linux kernels can now be run on top of Xen dom0 without having to integrate patches from Xen. Xen itself (dom0) is not in Linux code base yet.
