A Docker container that boots the iPhone's iOS xnu kernel (arm64) under QEMU with KVM acceleration, exposing SSH and GDB ports for kernel debugging. It lets researchers run and debug the iOS kernel on any Linux-capable host.
Use cases
- run iOS kernel in a docker container
- debug the iOS xnu kernel with gdb
- emulate an iPhone on linux with qemu
- kernel security research on iOS arm64
- boot xnu-qemu-arm64 with KVM
- ssh into an emulated iOS system
When to choose
- you need to step through the iOS kernel in GDB on Linux
- you want a reproducible, containerized iOS kernel research environment
- you're doing arm64 kernel or security research without physical devices
When to avoid
- you want to run iOS apps with a graphical UI - display support is incomplete
- you need a maintained, actively updated tool - last release was 2022
- you lack KVM or can't run privileged containers
- you want a full iOS device emulator rather than kernel-level access
