08/25/2022, 6:29 PManyone know if there’s been any work by anyone to enable virtiofs on lima?

08/26/2022, 8:10 AMIt’s more of a Qemu limitation than Lima.
However, there is an ongoing discussion on utilising macOS native virtualisation framework as an alternative to Qemu.
Even if that happens, Qemu would still be the recommended default due to it being FOSS.

08/26/2022, 4:07 PMI think it is possible to make it work in Linux, but I am not sure if there is a working prototype for Mac yet ? So it is a Docker-only feature for now I think
Red Hat was working on it (as in: virtiofsd darwin) for Podman Desktop, but (as usual?) they were going to rewrite everything in Rust first

08/26/2022, 5:42 PMyeah, i read the virtio docs for qemu and it seems like it should just be a matter of running the daemon (assuming it runs on macos at all) and running qemu with the correct options

is that not correct and qemu would need to use the virtualization framework instead of the hypervisor framework?
i was fairly certain docker desktop was using qemu with virtiofs so I’d be surprised if you couldn’t use qemu

I think that’s only for cross architecture emulation.
