Having looked into this a bit, it appears to be more like 9vx than QEMU
 (uses segmenting capabilities), that is, unless I've forgotten how 9vx is
set up.
I believe some X11 stuff also uses segment registers, as well as TLS on
Linux.

I
"get it". Especially that they're shooting for Native Arm.  It' be
cool on mobiles for sure.
