Hello,
now that VirtualBox able to run as a host on arm64 (e.g. the Apple M3
processors) I was wondering if there are any plans to port the vboxguest
driver to that platform? I added ARM64 to the Kconfig files (see below) on
vboxguest and vboxsf, and also for vboxvideo, and it compiled just like
that and at least vboxsf appears to work just fine.
I don't know how to test vboxvideo yet (the module loads just fine), but
if we at least enable to option in the Kconfig file at least people would
be able to test it :-)
Comments?
Thanks,
Christian.
