QEMU is a generic and open source processor emulator
|
|
|
|
|
which achieves a good emulation speed by using dynamic translation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
QEMU has two operating modes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Full system emulation. In this mode, QEMU emulates
|
|
|
|
|
a full system (for example a PC), including a processor and

|
|
|
Operating Systems without rebooting the PC or to debug system code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* User mode emulation (Linux host only). In this mode,
|
|
|
|
|
QEMU can launch Linux processes compiled for one CPU on another CPU.
