We don't know yet whether M1 will be able to support a hypervisor, so it's just too soon to say. I know it's not the HN culture, but I encourage everyone to take a deep breath and be patient for the actual hardware to arrive.
- wmf 6y agoSo you didn't even read this thread before posting.
- otterley 6y agoI did. But it doesn't matter: not a single consumer outside Apple (and maybe some reviewers under embargo) has a production M1 in their hands today. Nor is there a public datasheet for the processor yet that I could find. Kindly check your attitude at the door.

- saagarjha 6y agoIt will; it's based on the A14 chip which adds EL2 support.
- aseipp 6y agoThe Apple documentation for Hypervisor.framework now explicitly includes references to Apple Silicon, and even ignoring that, they showed Debian running in Parallels back at WWDC during the announcement. They literally had a giant interstitial during the talk that was titled "Virtualization," complete with a cute little logo/icon and a demo, in classic Apple style.
- otterley 6y agoThat's great data! Thanks!
- olliej 6y agoIt absolutely will - this post is referencing a July post which means it's the DTK. Apple explicitly said that the DTK does not support hypervisors, and that final consumer hardware would. People posting garbage reports like this to HN annoys the hell out of me.
