The proper way to refer to the project is "Cloud Hypervisor" without the
hyphen in the middle. On the other hand, if one refers to the binary
name, it is "cloud-hypervisor".

present in the guest in order to run correctly.

Now that the project relies on Ubuntu images, the documentation related
to the creation of a custom image has been updated. It's important to
note this procedure could be applied to any other distribution, given
that the package manager's commands would be slightly different.

A new ClearLinux image has been uploaded to the Azure storage account.
It is based off of the ClearLinux cloudguest image 31310 version, with
three extra bundles added to it.
First bundle is curl, which adds the curl binary to the image, second
bundle is iperf, adding the iperf binary to the image, and third bundle
is sysadmin-basic to include utility like netcat.
The image is 2G in size.

Having the virtual IOMMU created with --iommu is one thing, but we also
need a way to decide if a virtio-blk device should be attached to this
virtual IOMMU or not. That's why we introduce an extra option "iommu"
with the value "on" or "off". By default, the device is not attached,
which means "iommu=off".
One side effect of this new option is that we had to introduce a new
option for the disk path, simply called "path=".

This is a quick guide on how to create a custom Clear Linux image based
on the official tooling provided by Clear Linux. If for any reason, the
image we are using is missing some interesting bundles that are packaged
by Clear Linux, this documentation will be the guide on how to proceed.
