The June 2026 Haiku activity report covers commits hrev59754–hrev59820. The headline item is the long-awaited merge of NVMM (NetBSD Virtual Machine Monitor) into the Haiku tree, bringing hardware-accelerated QEMU virtualization closer to reality — though it remains disabled by default due to guest OS crashes during boot. Other notable work includes: a critical I/O scheduler fix that could cause disk corruption on SSDs with 4K block sizes; a deadlock fix in VM memory functions (mprotect areas); an EFI bootloader bug where a key x86 control register was only initialized on the boot CPU; Bluetooth isochronous transfer support (needed for audio); 30-bit RGB pixel format support; Apple ARM platform improvements; and a confirmed beta6 release timeline targeting mid-August with a branch cut by end of the week.
