GXemul is an experimental instruction-level machine emulator. Several
|
|
emulation modes are available. In some modes, processors and
|
|
surrounding hardware components are emulated well enough to let
|
|
unmodified operating systems (e.g. NetBSD) run as if they were running
|
|
on a real machine.
|
|
|
|
The emulator is written in C, does not depend on third-party
|
|
libraries, and should compile and run on most 64-bit and 32-bit
|
|
Unix-like systems, with few or no modifications.
|
|
|
|
Devices and processors are not simulated with 100% accuracy. They are
|
|
only "faked" well enough to allow guest operating systems to run
|
|
without complaining too much. Still, the emulator could be of interest
|
|
for academic research and experiments, such as when learning how to
|
|
write operating system code.
