  It’s “FEX”, Valve have apparently been testing it with Proton.

  The Asahi Linux team have their own packaging/tooling around it, but theirs is slower at runtime because they have to run the games inside a VM as well.

    Their stack is so brutal. It’s incredible how they overcame it all.

    ARM instruction set, wrong page size, GPU without documentation for which they reverse engineered a Vulkan and OpenGL driver.
