SlimVM is a lightweight VMX-based platform for gVisor that accelerates sentry system calls by eliminating unnecessary user/kernel context switches. In a traditional gVisor + KVM setup, every guest syscall triggers a full VM exit to userspace, then re-enters the kernel via a regular syscall: gr0 -> hr0 (vm_exit) -> hr3 (ioctl return) -> hr0 (re-invoke syscall) SlimVM eliminates this overhead. When the guest executes a VMCALL, the VM exits into VMX root mode where SlimVM directly invokes the host kernel's syscall handler, then immediately resumes the guest: gr0 -> hr0 (vmcall + direct function call) SlimVM requires a companion kernel module that provides the /dev/slimvm device interface. See https://github.com/antgroup/slimvm for the kernel module and full documentation. A sentry->host getpid microbenchmark (Xeon 6982P-C, host kernel 5.10.134) shows the effect: │ ns/op │ vs base │ base 82.5 1.0x slimvm 420.9 5.1x kvm 3566.1 43.2x slimvm is ~8.5x faster than the kvm platform on this path. See the issue for details.
