fastppcx86 - an x86-64 userspace emulator for power8 and up.

[daedalao]

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.

Edit: This requires a 4k page size. I don't have 64k setup at the moment.

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

I linked the wrong repo originally, apologies.

Edit:

This video was tested with the currently available git repo:

Currently working on 64k page size support. It's in it's infancy and things may be broken. With native wine (pp64le wine) it works to launch Cyberpunk 2077, Witcher 3, rimworld.
