  and its "oh, you want multi-arch, do you?" friend. While prosecuting this <https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/339567> I learned that https://hub.docker.com/layers/multiarch/qemu-user-static/7.2... actually mutates the binfmt_misc in buildx's context in order to exec the static copy of qemu in it https://github.com/multiarch/qemu-user-static/blob/v7.2.0-1/...

  and, that the buildx plugin itself has some qemu magick in it, which got addressed in a minor version bump but I couldn't track down the relevant GitHub issue this second (I've flushed it from my mind, only recalling that there were a lot of actors in that tire fire)

  QEMU is a popular open-source emulator that can emulate a variety of CPU architectures, including ARM, PowerPC, and MIPS. multiarch/qemu-user-static is a Docker image that allows you to emulate different CPU architectures on your host machine using QEMU.

  Next, you need to enable Qemu support for your Docker host instance. Qemu is a generic machine emulator and virtualiser. In simple terms, it allows your machine with one type of processor to emulate other types of processor, allowing your machine to execute scripts on different processor architectures.

• Containers Vs VMs

  Another great tool for cross arch development is qemu-static-user. It allows you to run your nonnative architecture docker images on host using a qemu container for translation and only requires about one command to get working. It’s life saving for me when I need to test but setting up a full VM or native server is too time consuming.

  I'm just gonna leave these 2 here since I think they take a lot less effort to setup than the gcc-cross stuff and should be able to help you do stuff a lot faster: https://wiki.debian.org/QemuUserEmulation https://github.com/multiarch/qemu-user-static

  multiarch/qemu-user-static is required for emulating ARM32 and Aarch64 instructions on x86_64 Linux.

• Running Intel Binaries inside ARM Linux VMs with Rosetta on Apple silicon.
  1 project | /r/programming | 7 Jun 2022

  This is MacOS's user mode x86 emulator ported to Linux. They intend for Linux VMs to use it as the interpreter for x86 binaries, including in containers. Basically a faster replacement for qemu-user-static .
