Description:

QEMU is a FAST! processor emulator. By using dynamic translation it
achieves a reasonnable speed while being easy to port on new host
CPUs. QEMU has two operating modes:

* User mode emulation. In this mode, QEMU can launch Linux processes
compiled for one CPU on another CPU. Linux system calls are
converted because of endianness and 32/64 bit mismatches. Wine
(Windows emulation) and DOSEMU (DOS emulation) are the main targets
for QEMU.

* Full system emulation. In this mode, QEMU emulates a full system,
including a processor and various peripherials. Currently, it is
only used to launch an x86 Linux kernel on an x86 Linux system. It
enables easier testing and debugging of system code. It can also be
used to provide virtual hosting of several virtual PC on a single
server.

This QEMU package provides support for KQEMU, the QEMU Accelerator
module.

This QEMU package provides support for KVM (Kernel-based Virtual
Machine), a full virtualization solution for Linux on x86 hardware
containing virtualization extensions (AMD-v or Intel VT).
