By using dynamic translation, -it achieves very good performance. QEMU can also integrate with the Xen -and KVM hypervisors to provide emulated hardware while allowing the -hypervisor to manage the CPU. With hypervisor support, QEMU can achieve -near native performance for CPUs. When QEMU emulates CPUs directly it is -capable of running operating systems made for one machine (e.g. an ARMv7 -board) on a different machine (e.g. an x86_64 PC board). - -QEMU is also capable of providing userspace API virtualization for Linux -and BSD kernel interfaces. This allows binaries compiled against one -architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux PPC64 ABI) to be run on a host using a -different architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux x86_64 ABI). This does not -involve any hardware emulation, simply CPU and syscall emulation. - -QEMU aims to fit into a variety of use cases. It can be invoked directly -by users wishing to have full control over its behaviour and settings. -It also aims to facilitate integration into higher level management -layers, by providing a stable command line interface and monitor API. -It is commonly invoked indirectly via the libvirt library when using -open source applications such as oVirt, OpenStack and virt-manager. - -QEMU as a whole is released under the GNU General Public License, -version 2. For full licensing details, consult the LICENSE file. - - -Building -======== - -QEMU is multi-platform software intended to be buildable on all modern -Linux platforms, OS-X, Win32 (via the Mingw64 toolchain) and a variety -of other UNIX targets. The simple steps to build QEMU are: - - mkdir build - cd build - ../configure - make - -Complete details of the process for building and configuring QEMU for -all supported host platforms can be found in the qemu-tech.html file. -Additional information can also be found online via the QEMU website: - - http://qemu-project.org/Hosts/Linux - http://qemu-project.org/Hosts/W32 - - -Submitting patches -================== - -The QEMU source code is maintained under the GIT version control system. - - git clone git://git.qemu-project.org/qemu.git - -When submitting patches, the preferred approach is to use 'git -format-patch' and/or 'git send-email' to format & send the mail to the -qemu-devel@nongnu.org mailing list. All patches submitted must contain -a 'Signed-off-by' line from the author. Patches should follow the -guidelines set out in the HACKING and CODING_STYLE files. - -Additional information on submitting patches can be found online via -the QEMU website - - http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch - http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/TrivialPatches - - -Bug reporting -============= - -The QEMU project uses Launchpad as its primary upstream bug tracker. Bugs -found when running code built from QEMU git or upstream released sources -should be reported via: - - https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/ - -If using QEMU via an operating system vendor pre-built binary package, it -is preferable to report bugs to the vendor's own bug tracker first. If -the bug is also known to affect latest upstream code, it can also be -reported via launchpad. - -For additional information on bug reporting consult: - - http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/ReportABug - - -Contact -======= - -The QEMU community can be contacted in a number of ways, with the two -main methods being email and IRC - - - qemu-devel@nongnu.org - http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel - - #qemu on irc.oftc.net - -Information on additional methods of contacting the community can be -found online via the QEMU website: - - http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/StartHere - --- End |
