  1. Friends don't let friends expose #usb devices to their #qemu guests, especially when #virtio is right there. The usb sub-system is one of our older ones and is currently Orphaned will all the security implications that entails. We don't need more #llm driven vulnerability scanning - we need maintainers who know the problem domain taking the reigns.

  6. This previous weekend I wrote and Submitted Rust bindings for virtio drivers in the Linux kernel mailing list including a WIP sample driver for virtio-rtc device lore.kernel.org/all/20260505-r

  11. as far as I understand

    #Xen: What is the minimal hardware we need to emulate to get a VM? We might need to customise/change the operating system.

    qemu(+kvm): Let's emulate the full PC with mainboard and all chipsets and everything. Damn that is slow. Lets reinvent optimised virtual hardware in the #VirtIO project.

  15. Getting started with a cool new project: building my own minimalist Linux OS for x86_64 using Buildroot! 🛠️

    Just finished the full cross-compilation with the pc_x86_64_bios_defconfig. The resulting tiny system is up and running in QEMU.

    Excited to spend the next few days exploring Buildroot's potential, from custom kernels to package management. Time to dig into the embedded world! 🚀

  25. @joeress another one where it was useful was generating a cut down test case for #latex. I was diagnosing a problem with the #virtio specs caused by a regression in htlatex and #gemini was able to generate a nice concise reproducer much faster than I could have.

    We got a bunch of security reports for #qemu recently: gitlab.com/sculizhenghao. Fortunately these were not slop reports and having test cases with the reports was very useful.

  30. So I was curious about VirtioFS today and decided to satisfy that curiosity with the Help of Gemini DeepResearch. The Resulting document was an interesting read. It looks like the Tool manages not to Hallucinate as it has direct sources. The Part that VirtioFS is basically FUSE was new to me. When I finished reading it I thought, maybe some people might like this read aswell.

  35. So … while this is obviously nice for virtualized gaming, what about video decode/encode acceleration?

    Is there a way to give a #Linux guest access to the host #GPU's video codec acceleration without GPU passthrough?

    Just like it's possible to pass /dev/dri into a container, can I do a similar thing with a #QEMU / #KVM virtual machine?
