Revision as of 20:59, 20 March 2013
Development
- Savannah project page
- QEMU patches from the mailing list
- IRC channel: #qemu on irc.oftc.net
Unofficial QEMU binaries
- Precompiled Windows versions (≥ 0.13.0), provided by Eric Lassauge
- Precompiled Windows versions (≥ 0.9.1), provided by TAKEDA Toshiya
- Older precompiled Windows versions (≤ 0.9.0), provided by Kazu
- RPMs for Fedora and RHEL
- Slackware packages
Alternate QEMU repositories
- Openmoko (Neo1973) target
- Malc's GIT repository including audio improvements, an x86 interpreter (useful for MSDOS demos heavily using self modifying code), full A/V capture
- Android emulation - see also http://gsoc11-qemu-android.blogspot.de/
- AR7 routers, TCG interpreter (maintained by Stefan Weil)
- Motorola 680x0 (not coldfire — maintained by Laurent Vivier)
- Z80 target (works, but needs flags optimisation)
- PA-RISC target — early stages (needs linux-user rework for stack growing up)
- Mamona project - link down
- MeeGo QEMU
- kqemu archive includes patches for the former acceleration module
- qemu-linaro - mostly tracks upstream; includes OMAP3 support
Historical ports
- Q repository (Mac OS X port of v0.9.1)
- OpenSolaris project (OpenSolaris port of ~v0.9.1)
GUI Front Ends

Other management tools/systems
- libvirt provides an API for managing QEMU/KVM (and other hypervisors) exposed in C, Perl, Python, OCaml, Ruby, and Java, with bridges to AMQP/QMF and DMTF CIM.
- virt-install, virt-clone, virt-convert a set of command line tools for provisioning new VMs from install media, existing VMs and appliances, respectively. See also 'virsh' command line shell with libvirt.
- virt-manager, Virtual Machine Manager. A graphical desktop management app using libvirt. Can manage a single local host, or securely multiple remote hosts. Support QEMU, KVM, Xen and more
- Ganeti, a cluster virtual server management software tool built on top of existing virtualization technologies such as Xen or KVM and other Open Source software.
BIOSes and firmware used by QEMU
- The PC BIOS from the Bochs IA-32 Emulator Project
- The LGPL VGA BIOS project
- The OpenBIOS project, an open source Open Firmware implementation
- The OpenHackWare Open Firmware implementation
- Etherboot images from ROM-o-matic
- The EFI BIOS comes from the TianoCore Project. The QEMU port is available here
- OVMF provides UEFI support for IA32 (x86) and X64 (x86-64) guests.
Projects using the QEMU code
- The Xen virtual machine monitor
- KVM, Kernel-based Virtual Machine for Linux
- VirtualBox, an open source x86 virtualizer.
- SerialICE, a system software debugger
- MARSSx86, a cycle accurate accurate x86 simulator that uses QEMU
