Fedora 42 On 64-bit ARM Might Make It Seamless To Run x86/x86_64 Programs
As one of the early feature proposals for Fedora 42, there is a proposal being considered to make for a nice out-of-the-box experience running x86/x86_64 game/application binaries atop Fedora 42 AArch64 hosts.
To ensure wide compatibility, FEX is also able to leverage a distribution-shipped root filesystem tree (RootFS) to provide core system libraries that the emulated binaries might need. To address this, we will leverage krun to run FEX inside a microVM with a 4k page-size kernel, thus providing a compatible environment with minimal overhead."
