  Description     : secure and fast microVMs for serverless computing

Firecracker is an open source virtualization technology that enables the
creation and management of secure, multi-tenant containers and serverless
services by running lightweight virtual machines (microVMs) on top of KVM.

It provides a minimal device model, fast startup times, low memory overhead,
and jailer isolation for untrusted workloads.

This package includes:
  - firecracker: minimal KVM-based virtual machine monitor
  - jailer: chroot, namespace, and cgroup containment wrapper
  - seccompiler: multi-threaded seccomp BPF filter compiler
  - snapshot-editor: VM state and memory snapshot inspection/editing tool
  - rebase-snap: snapshot memory diff rebasing utility
  - cpu-template-helper: CPU template and fingerprint management utility
     .
The package will be maintained under Salsa at:

  https://salsa.debian.org/ysk/firecracker

I need a sponsor for Debian Rust Team to package this project.
