fastppcx86 - an x86-64 userspace emulator for power8 and up.
« on: August 04, 2026, 09:56:57 pm »
I don't know how to program, I just understand the concepts of hardware emulation. I forked this from FEX-Emu a few months ago. Myself and another contributor used a mixture of local llms running on our power hardware and claude code. All work was done on Arch Power maintained by kth5. There is a lot of work to do as I only have a power8 machine, my co-contributor has a power9 workstation.

I don't know if this is the appropriate forum for this post.

Sure seems appropriate to me. I'll have to try it out.
