Corellium: How we ported Linux to the M1
Thursday January 21, 2021. 07:37 PM , from LWN.net
The Corellium blog is carrying a description of how the Linux
port to the Apple M1 processor was done. 'Many components of the M1 are shared with Apple mobile SoCs, which gave us a good running start. But when writing Linux drivers, it became very apparent how non-standard Apple SoCs really are. Our virtual environment is extremely flexible in terms of models it can accommodate; but on the Linux side, the 64-bit ARM world has largely settled on a well-defined set of building blocks and firmware interfaces - nearly none of which were used on the M1.'
