Has anyone tried turning on nested virt yet? Since the new container CLI spins each container in its own lightweight Linux VM via Virtualization.framework, I’m wondering whether the framework will pass the virtualization extensions through so we can modprobe kvm inside the guest.

Apple’s docs say nested virtualization is only available on M3-class Macs and newer (VZGenericPlatformConfiguration.isNestedVirtualizationSupported) developer.apple.com, but I don’t see an obvious flag in the container tooling to enable it. Would love to hear if anyone’s managed to get KVM (or even qemu-kvm) running inside one of these VMs.
