[Qemu-devel] Investigating QEMU source with eye towards integration of JIT into bochs

[John R. Hogerhuis]

I am taking a look at the QEMU source code with an eye towards what
would be necessary to integrate the JIT engine into bochs.

In the process of my investigation I will be generating some notes...
one possibility is that I could generate some external programmer
documentation for the QEMU project.

Would this be of help? What in particular is needed? Preferred format?

I am interested in the integration of QEMU into Bochs as it would allow 
easier testing of the QEMU cpu core by comparing it with the bochs 
emulator in cosimulation mode. An important problem is that QEMU does 
not have a target CPU cycle counter, but I will add it soon.

About the documentation, you can patch the QEMU library include file 
using the javadoc format and/or make a new documentation in texinfo 
format (see qemu-doc.texi).

Don't hesitate to ask for details or features.
