Summary : Machine emulator and virtualizer for "extra" architectures
Description :
QEMU provides full machine emulation and cross architecture usage. It closely
integrates with KVM and Xen virtualization, allowing for excellent performance.
Many options are available for defining the emulated environment, including
traditional devices, direct host device access, and interfaces specific to
virtualization.
This package provides some lesser used emulations, including alpha, m68k,
mips, sparc, and xtensa. (The term "extra" is juxtapositioned against more
popular QEMU packages which are dedicated to a single architecture.)
