Windows 98 runs surprisingly well in QEMU, but it requires some care in setting it up. It’s a great way to run old 90s Windows and DOS software on your iPad (and Mac too, though you have other options available… Continue reading →| the sporks space
While I was looking for a way to spoof a VM environment, I ran into the Qemu program, which I think it is good enough for my purposes.

For the QEMU 2.12 release we added support for a model of the Raspberry Pi 3 board (thanks to everybody involved in developing and upstreaming that code). The model is sufficient to boot a Debian image, so I wanted to write up how to do that. Things to know before you start Before I start, […]| translatedcode
For the next entry in this occasional series of posts about tricks for debugging QEMU I want to talk about savevm snapshots. QEMU’s savevm snapshot feature is designed as a user feature, but it’s surprisingly handy as a developer tool too. Suppose you have a guest image which misbehaves when you run a particular userspace […]| translatedcode
Over the years I’ve picked up a few tricks for tracking down problems in QEMU, and it seemed worth writing them up. First on the list is a tool I’ve found relatively recently: rr, from the folks at Mozilla. rr is a record-and-replay tool for C and C++: you run your program under the recorder […]| translatedcode
In my last post I mentioned that we were nearly done with support for emulating an entire AArch64 system in QEMU. Those last few pieces of code have now landed upstream, and Alex Bennée has written a great guide to how to build QEMU and a test image so you can give it a spin.| translatedcode
The QEMU Project released version 2.0.0 of QEMU last week; this seems like a good time to summarise our progress with ARMv8 QEMU work. One of the major new ARM related features in this release is support for emulating AArch64 processes in QEMU’s “linux-user” mode; in Linaro we’ve been working on this over the last […]| translatedcode
This week the QEMU support patches for KVM on ARM were accepted into upstream. Since the kernel KVM on ARM patchset was accepted for the 3.9 kernel, this means that there is now enough support in purely upstream kernel and QEMU for basic working KVM on ARMv7 cores with the Virtualization Extensions (specifically, Cortex-A15). There […]| translatedcode

In my day job sometimes I need to edit documents using tools that are only available on Windows. As such, I have a virtual machine with Windows 10 running on VirtualBox. Recently I upgraded to Debian 13 and I took the opportunity to migrate to a libvirt-based solution. I explain here the steps that I followed.| Think In Geek

I’ve been using virtio-serial for communications between Linux hypervisors and guest virtual machines for ages. Lots of other people do it to — the qemu guest agent for example is implemented like this. In fact, I think that’s where I got my original thoughts on the matter from. However, virtio-serial is actually fairly terrible to write against as a programming model, because you’re left to do all the multiplexing of various requests down the channel and surely there’s something be...| Made by Mikal

I’m migrating some self-hosted virtual machines to Trisquel, and noticed that Trisquel does not offer cloud-images similar to the Debian Cloud and Ubuntu Cloud images. Thus my earlier approach based on virt-install --cloud-init and cloud-localds does not work with Trisquel.

Docker can build multi-platform images that use a manifest index (fat manifest list) by using the Docker buildx command with backing containerd runtime and QEMU for cross-platform emulation. Using a manifest index for multi-platform images simplifies application level orchestration by using the same name and version for all architectures. For example: # same image name ...

If you want to use Docker to build cross-platform images, the first step is to enable QEMU to run images targeted at others architectures via emulation. I assume you have installed Docker CE and its containerd runtime as described here, and are running on a x86_64 host. Test current ability to emulate other architectures # ...

If you want to run virtual machines on Linux, chances are you’re going to use libvirt. I make use of it all the time, especially for testing these blog posts in a clean environment. libvirt provides a common interface around various underlying tools for virtual machine management. It not only offers features for guest management but for networking and storage management as well. It’s standard XML schema also makes for a powerful and versatile configuration format.
