=== BSD-USER 4 LINUX Contact: Maksym Sobolyev <[email protected]> Links: link:https://github.com/sobomax/qemu-bsd-user-l4b[Project Page] URL: link:https://github.com/sobomax/qemu-bsd-user-l4b[] + link:https://github.com/sobomax/qemu_l4b[Tooling] URL: link:https://github.com/sobomax/qemu_l4b[] The `bsd-user-4-linux` project ports BSD user-mode emulation for QEMU to Linux. The primary goal is to enable unmodified FreeBSD binaries to run on modern Linux systems. Additionally, the project aims to provide multi-platform container images with a functional FreeBSD environment and ready-to-use GitHub Actions templates. Current Status: * The initial port successfully runs `make -jN buildworld`. * Most command-line tools are working as expected (`sh`, `bash`, `find`, `grep`, `git`, `clang`, etc). * A link:https://github.com/sobomax/qemu-bsd-user-l4b/actions[GitHub Actions pipeline] builds x86_64 emulation images for: ** linux/386 ** linux/amd64 ** linux/arm/v5 ** linux/arm64/v8 Next Steps: * Implement container integration. How You Can Help: * Test with your preferred toolchain, report issues, or contribute fixes. * Build and test non-x86_64 emulation images (e.g., FreeBSD/arm64 on Linux/x86_64). The code works on BSD but needs testing on Linux. * Support us on link:https://patreon.com/sippylabs[Patreon]. Sponsor: Sippy Software, Inc.
