DragonFly BSD Description

The latest release of DragonFly, version 6.2.2, introduces several enhancements, including hardware compatibility for type-2 hypervisors utilizing NVMM, an upgraded amdgpu driver, and the experimental feature of remote-mounting HAMMER2 volumes, alongside a variety of other updates. As a member of the BSD family of operating systems, DragonFly shares its roots with Linux and other BSD variants, adhering to the foundational principles and APIs of UNIX while also diverging in terms of development direction from FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD. This divergence allows DragonFly to pursue unique innovations, such as its sophisticated HAMMER filesystem, which offers high performance, built-in mirroring, and historical access capabilities. Additionally, one of the standout features is the implementation of virtual kernels, enabling the execution of a complete kernel as a user process, which facilitates resource management, kernel development, and debugging in an accelerated environment. These features collectively position DragonFly as a distinctive option within its operating system category, appealing to users seeking alternatives beyond conventional solutions.
