[Qemu-devel] QEMU as an emulator

[Pharaoh .]

Hi

I am new here. QEMU can bve used as a machine emulator and a
visualizer. When we use QEMU as an emulator then does it mean using
this we can run code for say ARM on a x86 based machine and QEMU will
take care of the transalation?

I am writing some drivers for ARM but I dont have any ARM based board
with me so can I develop and test those driver using QEMU and they
will work seamlessly when I test them on the actual setup?

Does QEMU take care i.e. translate very machine dependent code across platforms?


Whether or not I am should go ahead with my development plans depends
on the answers to the above questions.
