Explicit GPU pointers, instead of opaque structures from the programmer's view, only became part of core in Vulkan 1.2 (VK_KHR_buffer_device_address). And for Metal, getting the GPU address of a buffer only became exposed in Metal 3.0,

Those aren't an issue really. macOS VMs eschew most apple extensions anyway (no AMX there for example). The big roadblock that we've hit is that arm64 macOS has no software rasteriser for rendering the GUI. The result is that unle

Note that UVFS is currently not exposed to third parties. For your own 3rd-party file systems, you'll still have to use a kernel extension for now. (or local NFS mount).

For Chrome OS not the problem a lot of the time, they drop support for devices using commodity SoCs that are still supported elsewhere... it's a quite hardcoded expiry date. And they don't even drop support for all machines using

Btw, Qualcomm and MediaTek do _not_ block kernel source releases by OEMs in any way. You will still want to get the source tree from the OEM even for new devices though. While the GKI means that kernels are the same across recent devices, k

qemu-user is indeed hopelessly unsuitable for any kind of heavy use. Use anything else. :) But that doesn't answer the question of "does Rosetta deal with it properly?".

The shared drive is just a licensing trick. They do an ioctl over /proc/self/exe as the licensing mechanism. (and that's routed over with virtio-fs to the host)
