Subject: [Qemu-devel] UMEQ: an alternative to QEMU user-mode
Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2015 14:17:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5502E375.1010606@st.com> (raw)

Hello,

during the last Linaro Connect in Hong Kong I presented (see [1] and 
[2]) a project called UMEQ, for User Mode Emulation Quest.

The goal of this project is to run AArch64 binaries on a x86_64 host in 
user mode. Exactly like QEMU user-mode.
But, as I presented, QEMU user-mode is often crashing with applications 
that use signals and/or threads while UMEQ is working correctly.

For instance we can run (thanks to UMEQ) complexe AArch64 programs like 
vlc, okular, battle for wesnoth, gdb, ... on an x86_64 host.

As promised during the connect, the code is now available at 
https://github.com/mickael-guene/umeq

Feel free to compile it, test it, read the sources and ask questions to 
his author mickael Guene.


Best regards
