HI @dbwiddis,
Yes, each workflow runs in a clean VM. This is done for both security reasons and for economic reasons, i.e. to give you the ability to have 1/2 a Mac Mini without incurring the cost of a full one 😄. A bit more technical details: this is handled by Apple’s Virtualization Framework
Same for AppleSMC. The Apple SMC is involved in controlling several low-level functions of the computer, including power management, thermal management, and system hardware interfacing. In a standard physical Mac, the SMC is a physical component. However, in a virtualized environment, hardware components like the SMC are not directly exposed to the virtualized operating system. Instead, the virtualization software simulates or abstracts most hardware components, and it's common that specific, proprietary components like Apple's SMC are not simulated in the VM environment. Here is more info on the topic. Please let us know if you run into any issues. Best Regards, |
@radeva @kgantchev thanks for the details and thanks for providing this service! |
Thank you for using FlyCI! 💯 |
While looking into macOS 13 runner capabilities mentioned in #2428 (comment) I see that M1 runners are available. We should add at least one run on this arch.
