QEMU 2.0 发布了,下载地址: http://wiki.qemu.org/download/qemu-2.0.0.tar.bz2
QEMU是一套由Fabrice Bellard所编写的模拟处理器的自由软件。它与Bochs,PearPC近似,但其具有某些后两者所不具备的特性,如高速度及跨平台的特性。经由kqemu这个开源的加速器,QEMU能模拟至接近真实电脑的速度。QEMU有两种主要运作模倾:
-
User mode模拟模式,亦即是使用者模式。QEMU 能启动那些为不同中央处理器编译的Linux程序。而Wine及 Dosemu是其主要目标。
-
System mode模拟模式,亦即是系统模式。QEMU能模拟整个电脑系统,包括中央处理器及其他周边设备。它使得为系统源代码进行测试及除错工作变得容易。其亦能用来在一部主机上虚拟数部不同虚拟电脑。

值得关注的改进有:
* Initial support for KVM on AArch64 systems (some features such as migration are not yet implemented) * Support for all 64-bit mode ARMV8 user-accessible instructions except for the optional CRC and crypto extensions * Support for new 32-bit mode ARMv8 instructions in TCG * Support for the allwinner-a10-based board "-M cubieboard" * Support for POWER Altivec 2.07 and VSX instructions when running under TCG * Support for boot order in pSeries emulation * The Q35 x86 machine-type now supports CPU hotplug. * On the PIIX x86 machine-type, PCI hotplug now supports devices behind a bridge (for bridges not added by hotplug; hot-plugged bridges can still use the PCI Standard Hot-Plug Controller) * Support for the Hyper-V reference time counter via the "hv-time" suboption of "-cpu". This can improve performance of Windows guests substantially for applications that do many floating-point or SIMD operations. (Requires KVM and Linux 3.14). * ACPI tables generated by QEMU can now be used by OVMF (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UEFI/OVMF) firmware. OVMF starting with SVN r15420 is needed. In particular hotplug, pvpanic device and other ACPI based features now work for OVMF * PCI passthrough of devices with a ROM now work on Xen * support for suspend-to-RAM in the XHCI USB controller * GTK UI is now supported on Windows hosts * New management interfaces for CPU and virtio-rng hotplug * Improved reliability for live migration when using qcow2 images * Live snapshot merging * Experimental support in virtio-blk for M:N threading model: if you specify x-dataplane=on, you can also create I/O threads with "-object iothread" and point virtio-blk devices to the desired iothread with the "x-iothread" property. Properties of the running iothreads can be queried with the QMP command "query-iothreads". * Network block drivers (curl, iscsi, rbd, ssh, glusterfs) can be built as shared library modules with "--enable-modules" configure option. * QEMU is now able to operate even if the underlying storage requires the buffer size to be a 4K multiple. This is the case for 4K-native disks (with cache=none or when accessed through iscsi:// URLs) and some raw devices * QEMU can access NFSv3 shares directly from userspace using libnfs. * Improvements to the TCG optimizer make it produce faster code * Tracing QEMU via LTTng 2.x is now supported
