QEMU 4.1 Released With Many ARM, MIPS & x86 Additions

[schmidtbag]

I have a question. Is it possible to simulate a camera on QEMU?

What do you mean by simulate? You can passthrough a camera to the guest (which will disconnect it from the host). Otherwise, you need a virtual driver for a camera. I'm not sure if one exists.

thanks Michael,
For the info, as always!



Means exactly that
You can develop in quemu VM guest,
And pass-trough the rendering to a HOST process, also can be presented in HOST hardware graphics card.

Indeed is seems a very nice release!
the majority of improvements I noticed,
Were in ARM( fpu, etc ) and MIPS( specifically MSA SIMD, litle endian and also big endian ), but there are a ton of improvements,
including the ability to build quemu via kconfig,
Rendering pass-trough to Host processes, etc..

Very nice indeed!

Dof a this mean not need to use nasty PCI passtrought, VirtualGL for OpenGL or Wine-based Direct3D emulation? Can it reach native or near-native 2D and 3D rendering so able to run high end software such as videogames?
