            Bug ID: 299378
           Summary: Nested virtualization support in bhyve
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bhyve
          Assignee: virtualization@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: forums@px.in.ua

I know that currently bhyve doesn't support nested virtualization, and would
like to ask for adding it.

Use case: Windows 10/11 guests which want to run stuff on build-in HyperV, WSL2
in the first place. Without nested virtualization those guests are limited to
WSL1, which doesn't receive much fixes these days, and doesn't support latest
Linux distros like Ubuntu 26.04 LTS.
