# qubes-mirage-skeleton



A demonstration unikernel that can run as a QubesOS VM. 

It acts as a qrexec agent, receiving commands sent from dom0.

It uses the [mirage-qubes][] library to implement the Qubes protocols.



Note: since the release of mirage 3.0 a lot of the explicit setup done in this codebase is

done automatically by `mirage configure -t qubes`. This repo remains for educational purposes.



The example code queries QubesDB to get the network configuration, resolves "google.com" using its network VM's DNS service and then fetches "http://google.com".

It also responds provides a qrexec command, which can be invoked from dom0 (or other domains, if you allow it).



To build (ensure you have mirage 3.0.0 or later):



    $ opam install mirage

    # NB: We specifically target xen to show explicitly the QubesOS setup independently from the mirage automatic configuration

    $ mirage configure -t xen   

    $ make



You can use this with the [test-mirage][] scripts to deploy the unikernel (`qubes_skeleton.xen`) from your development AppVM. e.g.



    $ test-mirage qubes_skeleton.xen mirage-test

You can invoke commands from dom0. e.g.



    [tal@dom0 bin]$ qvm-run -p mirage-test echo

    Hi user! Please enter a string:

    Hello

    You wrote "Hello". Bye.
