Reply-To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org List-Id: qemu-devel.nongnu.org List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org Hello Everyone I'm a part of a school group, and we are looking at adding Intel VT support to QEMU for a class project. We would be implementing support for VT guests, so that other VMMs that rely on VT could be run/debugged using QEMU. We are not familiar with QEMU code (yet!), so we are looking for some feedback from all of you experts. 1. Has this been attempted before, or is there any existing code for this? I saw some posts about a year ago that perhaps someone started on it, but nothing after that. 2. What would be required to implement this? Any suggestions on where to start looking would be appreciated. Obviously, the Intel VT docs are going to be necessary. Are there other things that you recommend we look at before we start? Thanks, Jason Martens
