| The QEMU x86 emulator |
| --------------------- |
| |
| INSTALLATION |
| ------------ |
| |
| Type |
| |
| ./configure |
| make |
| |
| to build qemu, qemu-CPU and libqemu.a (CPU is the name of the various |
| supported target CPUs). |
| |
| Type |
| |
| make install |
| |
| to install QEMU in /usr/local |
| |
| Tested tool versions |
| -------------------- |
| |
| In order to compile QEMU succesfully, it is very important that you |
| have the right tools. The most important one is gcc. I cannot guaranty |
| that QEMU works if you do not use a tested gcc version. Look at |
| 'configure' and 'Makefile' if you want to make a different gcc |
| version work. |

| |
| [1] On Alpha, QEMU needs the gcc 'visibility' attribute only available |
| for gcc version >= 3.3. |
| [2] Linux >= 2.4.20 is necessary for precise exception support |
| (untested). |
| [3] 2.4.9-ac10-rmk2-np1-cerf2 |
| |
| [4] gcc 2.95.x generates invalid code when using too many register |
| variables. You must use gcc 3.x on PowerPC. |
