Framework Native/Universal build for Apple Silicon (x86_64 & arm64)

Open Ishaanahuja7 opened this issue 2 years ago • 28 comments

Summary

Support Universal build for macOS (x86_64 and arm64). If Universal cannot be done, then provide arm64 installer pkg file in addition to x86_64.

I did a complete dev environment setup of metasploit-framework described here on my M1 Max and it was successful. I don't know if there is a script for running tests to check everything but seems to be working with initial testing of like msfvenom, msfconsole session from macOS -> Windows 10, and msfdb.

Motivation

Running over Rosetta is really slow even on an M1 Max. Providing Universal or arm64 binaries would definitely speed up the framework.
