This is unfortunate as we can not let the community use this feature, = neither can we keep testing WHPX to avoid code bitrot. Can you meanwhile provide Azure CI builds using WHPX enabled? Regards, Phil. -- = You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1879672 Title: QEMU installer with WHPX support Status in QEMU: New Bug description: People often ask the community to add WHPX support to the QEMU installer = for Windows, but it is impossible due to the license limitations of the WHPX SDK. The WinHvEmulation.h and WinHvPlatform.h header files needed are "All rights reserved". However these headers only contain struct definitions and integer constan= ts, no functional code in macros or inline functions. See: https://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg645815.html It is questionable whether the headers alone can be considered copyrighta= ble material.
