Thanks to all who responded, makes perfect sense now.

The only thing you need on the host is to have the linux kernel module loaded. (You don't need to have any Linux packages installed there.) The default setting in /usr/local/etc/poudriere.conf is to have NOLINUX=yes commented out, i.e.,
Linux support in Poudriere is enabled unless you explicitly disable it.
The easiest way to load the linux kernel module on the host for use with
Poudriere is to add it to the "kld_list" setting in /etc/rc.conf, e.g.,
    kld_list="linux"

I do have NOLINUX=yes commented out, as is a default.

No, it doesn't require linuxulator to be configured, but require

Poudriere load linux.ko, but doesn't load linux64. Try this patch:

Great, that seems to do the trick! (actually, I just loaded the linux64
kmodule, did not try to apply the patch). Thanks!

Looks like the poudriere/common.sh needs this patch.
