But sharp-eyed observers have spotted some changes that will make Macs, including those powered by Apple’s own Arm-compatible silicon, more adept at running guest operating systems. Evidence of Apple’s additions can be found here, in a brief mention of virtualization stating that macOS 12 supports the Virtio specification and can therefore create standard interfaces for many device types — including network, socket, serial port, storage, entropy, and memory-balloon devices.
