The aforementioned support for Intel SGX (Software Guard Extensions) in the virtual machine.In addition, some corrections will also arrive with respect to previous versions, and many others improvements: From there, new candidates have been released every week until it is ready and marked as QEMU 6.2.0 stable, which should be mid-December if there are no delays or issues in development.
These are big words, and great news for users who use this software for emulation.Ī few days ago it was launched QEMU 6.2-rc0, that is, the first candidate for a final version (Release Candidate) and that can already be tested to verify all these updates and if it works correctly. It will also come with support enhancements for Apple Silicon (M1, M1 Pro, M1 Max), as well as the new and emerging ISA RISC-V. QEMU 6.2 is on the way with support for Intel's SGX in virtual machines, which is interesting for security. Now comes version 6.2, and it has very important advances. For its operation, it uses the dynamic translation of binaries, in addition to having virtualization capabilities to be able to run systems and software from other platforms (x86, ARM, SPARC, RISC-V, PPC,…). As you know, QEMU is a great open source project that acts as an emulator for different architectures.
