When HAXM was proposed for deprecation & removal from QEMU, the suggestion was that users should switch to Windows' native replacement WHPX, which QEMU already has support for. What is the rationale for wanting to introduce a 3rd party hypervisor solution like AEHD, for the Android emulator, rather than just sticking with the standard WHPX hypervisor available for Windows ? IIUC, the Android emulator can already support WHPX according to these pages: https://developer.android.com/studio/run/emulator-acceleration https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/android/emulator/hardware-acceleration?view=net-maui-7.0 With regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
