“QEMU is a generic and machine emulator and
virtualization application. It can be used as a machine emulator
with dynamic binary translation or a “virtualizer” on
x86-compatible processors.“QEMU can perform user emulation in order to launch Linux
processes and system emulation to launch an operating system and
can be used to run virtual desktops.“In announcing the release to the QEMU developer’s mailing list,
Anthony Liguori said in six months the developers have added more
than 80,000 lines of code and some 40,000 lines of code were
removed.”
