# gVisor
[gVisor](https://github.com/google/gvisor) is a user-space kernel, written in
Go, that implements a substantial portion of the Linux system surface.
`gVisor` uses `linux` OS, but the special `gvisor` VM type. There is nothing
special regarding `gVisor` besides that. Here is an example manager config:
```
{
"name": "gvisor",
"target": "linux/amd64",
"http": ":12345",
"workdir": "/workdir",
"image": "/usr/local/bin/runsc",
"syzkaller": "/gopath/src/github.com/google/syzkaller",
"cover": false,
"procs": 8,
"type": "gvisor",
"vm": {
"count": 5,
"runsc_args": "-platform=kvm"
}
}
```
