What would be run by the docker-machine in bhyve?

What does MacOS run in its hypervisor by the docker-machine? Some linux
flavor? It does not have a native docker server, does it?

I agree.

But I thought, perhaps with the Linux binary compatibility, we could
avoid running a Linux in bhyve?

Or can we convince Docker to start supporting jails (just a dream)?
