I am new on embedded programming. Now I am a bit confused about ARM Cortex M1 series.
I need to know, can I run Linux on ARM Cortex-M1 based fpga system.
When I search the web I couldn't find any toolchain or buildroot for development.
Can anyone enlighten me that Cortex M1 has Linux support? If not would you offer any other cpu core for Linux with low power consumption?
I highly recommend not to use Linux on Cortex-M1. It's a microcontroller, not a microprocessor. You cannot run mainline Linux since lack of MMU. Furthermore, since Cortex-M1 is a FPGA-based microcontroller, would you implement all peripherals and port to Linux??
There is a variant of the Linux kernel for processors without MMU called uCLinux, but it will be somewhat limited.
Try using Xilinx Zynq FPGA, which has Cortex-A as a CPU.

Is there like some sort of Linux layer for macOS? I've seen some projects that can only run on Linux because they require the Linux kernel to work. Something like Cygwin maybe.
Thanks
I haven't come across any Linux-on-macOS system other than full virtualisation with software such as VMWare Fusion, Parallels, VirtualBox, or xhyve.
macOS does implement (most of) POSIX; it also shares some of the BSDs' APIs such as kqueue/kevent, plus of course a bunch of custom user-kernel APIs, some of them inherited from Mach. There's also an X11 implementation. (although the results are rarely particularly attractive) A lot of Linux kernel APIs do have macOS equivalents, even if they're not identical. You should be able to port many (most?) projects which currently only work on Linux to the Mac; the amount of effort involved will of course vary. It'll usually be easier if it already works on a BSD.
You'll need to be more specific to get a more specific answer.

I got my new Dell Laptop recently which I noticed has the Intel® HD Graphics family GPU; so I was wondering does the latest series of Intel® HD Graphics family support CUDA?
I would appreciate any tips!
Thanks in advance ...
Short answer is no, you can not directly run CUDA app on CPU. However, you may be interested in project gpuOcelot which:
is a modular dynamic compilation framework for heterogeneous system,
providing various backend targets for CUDA programs and analysis
modules for the PTX virtual instruction set. Ocelot currently allows
CUDA programs to be executed on NVIDIA GPUs, AMD GPUs, and x86-CPUs at
full speed without recompilation.

Which OS family does Fedora belongs?
Fedora Wiki Page : Unix-Like.
Fedora Project Page : Linux-based.
Question - Difference between Unix-Like and Linux-Based?
P.S : A neophyte in Unix vs Linux Architecture.
Unix like - having a similar interface like unix.
Linux based - derived from the linux original implementation.
Linux is an operating system kernel that is designed like Unix's kernel.
Fedora is Linux based operating system, this linux based operating system kernel designed like unix.

I am planning to build a custom hardware /Derivative from designs of Open source hardwares like Beagle bone black.
How to Customize Linux for custom design from open hardwares like Beaglebone?
We start with doing the circuit schematic --> route and do the pcb--> test hardware -->
then where to start the software with for this custom board?
How are new or extra peripherals added to the custom hardware be
mapped to its Linux OS/bootloader?
How does linux for example know i am using a extra usb host or pin
supported peripheral in my custom design in place of few gpio pins on processor as in case of original design?
Thanks

I understand that a KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a Linux virtualization solution for machines with special hardware.
What I don't understand what this allows. What problems can you solve with a KVM? Where, when and why is it used?
From here:-
KVM is a type of hypervisor that enables, emulates and provides for
the creation of virtual machines on operating systems. These machines
are built on top of the Linux kernel, using operating systems such as
Linux, Ubuntu and Fedora. KVM can be installed on all x86 processors
and provide separate instruction set extensions for Intel and AMD
processors.
