Currently the commandline to create a virtual-filesystem pass-through between
the guest and the host is as follows:
#qemu -fsdev fstype,id=ID,path=path/to/share \
-device virtio-9p-pci,fsdev=ID,mount_tag=tag \
This patch provides a syntactic short-cut to achieve the same as follows:
#qemu -virtfs fstype,path=path/to/share,mount_tag=tag
This will be internally expanded as:
#qemu -fsdev fstype,id=tag,path=path/to/share, \
-device virtio-9p-pci,fsdev=tag,mount_tag=tag \

@item -drive @var{option}[,@var{option}[,@var{option}[,...]]]

@findex -drive
|
|
|
|
Define a new drive. Valid options are:
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
@item file=@var{file}
|
|
This option defines which disk image (@pxref{disk_images}) to use with
|
|
this drive. If the filename contains comma, you must double it
|
|
(for instance, "file=my,,file" to use file "my,file").
|
|
@item if=@var{interface}
|
|
This option defines on which type on interface the drive is connected.
|
|
Available types are: ide, scsi, sd, mtd, floppy, pflash, virtio.
|
|
@item bus=@var{bus},unit=@var{unit}
|
|
These options define where is connected the drive by defining the bus number and
|
|
the unit id.
|
|
@item index=@var{index}
|
|
This option defines where is connected the drive by using an index in the list
|
|
of available connectors of a given interface type.
|
|
@item media=@var{media}
|
|
This option defines the type of the media: disk or cdrom.
|
|
@item cyls=@var{c},heads=@var{h},secs=@var{s}[,trans=@var{t}]
|
|
These options have the same definition as they have in @option{-hdachs}.
|
|
@item snapshot=@var{snapshot}
|
|
@var{snapshot} is "on" or "off" and allows to enable snapshot for given drive (see @option{-snapshot}).
|
|
@item cache=@var{cache}
|
|
@var{cache} is "none", "writeback", or "writethrough" and controls how the host cache is used to access block data.
|
|
@item aio=@var{aio}
|
|
@var{aio} is "threads", or "native" and selects between pthread based disk I/O and native Linux AIO.
|
|
@item format=@var{format}
|
|
Specify which disk @var{format} will be used rather than detecting
|
|
the format. Can be used to specifiy format=raw to avoid interpreting
|
|
an untrusted format header.
|
|
@item serial=@var{serial}
|
|
This option specifies the serial number to assign to the device.
|
|
@item addr=@var{addr}
|
|
Specify the controller's PCI address (if=virtio only).
|
|
@end table
|
|
|
|
By default, writethrough caching is used for all block device. This means that
|
|
the host page cache will be used to read and write data but write notification
|
|
will be sent to the guest only when the data has been reported as written by
|
|
the storage subsystem.
|
|
|
|
Writeback caching will report data writes as completed as soon as the data is
|
|
present in the host page cache. This is safe as long as you trust your host.
|
|
If your host crashes or loses power, then the guest may experience data
|
|
corruption. When using the @option{-snapshot} option, writeback caching is
|
|
used by default.
|
|
|
|
The host page cache can be avoided entirely with @option{cache=none}. This will
|
|
attempt to do disk IO directly to the guests memory. QEMU may still perform
|
|
an internal copy of the data.
|
|
|
|
Some block drivers perform badly with @option{cache=writethrough}, most notably,
|
|
qcow2. If performance is more important than correctness,
|
|
@option{cache=writeback} should be used with qcow2.
|
|
|
|
Instead of @option{-cdrom} you can use:
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu -drive file=file,index=2,media=cdrom
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Instead of @option{-hda}, @option{-hdb}, @option{-hdc}, @option{-hdd}, you can
|
|
use:
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu -drive file=file,index=0,media=disk
|
|
qemu -drive file=file,index=1,media=disk
|
|
qemu -drive file=file,index=2,media=disk
|
|
qemu -drive file=file,index=3,media=disk
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
You can connect a CDROM to the slave of ide0:
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu -drive file=file,if=ide,index=1,media=cdrom
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
If you don't specify the "file=" argument, you define an empty drive:
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu -drive if=ide,index=1,media=cdrom
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
You can connect a SCSI disk with unit ID 6 on the bus #0:
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu -drive file=file,if=scsi,bus=0,unit=6
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Instead of @option{-fda}, @option{-fdb}, you can use:
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu -drive file=file,index=0,if=floppy
|
|
qemu -drive file=file,index=1,if=floppy
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
By default, @var{interface} is "ide" and @var{index} is automatically
|
|
incremented:
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu -drive file=a -drive file=b"
|
|
@end example

is interpreted like:

qemu -hda a -hdb b

Normally, QEMU uses SDL to display the VGA output. With this option,

|
|
display over the VNC session. It is very useful to enable the usb
|
|
tablet device when using this option (option @option{-usbdevice
|
|
tablet}). When using the VNC display, you must use the @option{-k}
|
|
parameter to set the keyboard layout if you are not using en-us. Valid
|
|
syntax for the @var{display} is
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
|
|
@item @var{host}:@var{d}
|
|
|
|
TCP connections will only be allowed from @var{host} on display @var{d}.
|
|
By convention the TCP port is 5900+@var{d}. Optionally, @var{host} can
|
|
be omitted in which case the server will accept connections from any host.
|
|
|
|
@item unix:@var{path}

Connections will be allowed over UNIX domain sockets where @var{path} is the

location of a unix socket to listen for connections on.

@table @option
|
|
|
|
@item reverse
|
|
|
|
Connect to a listening VNC client via a ``reverse'' connection. The
|
|
client is specified by the @var{display}. For reverse network
|
|
connections (@var{host}:@var{d},@code{reverse}), the @var{d} argument
|
|
is a TCP port number, not a display number.
|
|
|
|
@item password
|
|
|
|
Require that password based authentication is used for client connections.
|
|
The password must be set separately using the @code{change} command in the
|
|
@ref{pcsys_monitor}
|
|
|
|
@item tls
|
|
|
|
Require that client use TLS when communicating with the VNC server. This
|
|
uses anonymous TLS credentials so is susceptible to a man-in-the-middle
|
|
attack. It is recommended that this option be combined with either the
|
|
@option{x509} or @option{x509verify} options.
|
|
|
|
@item x509=@var{/path/to/certificate/dir}
|
|
|
|
Valid if @option{tls} is specified. Require that x509 credentials are used
|
|
for negotiating the TLS session. The server will send its x509 certificate
|
|
to the client. It is recommended that a password be set on the VNC server
|
|
to provide authentication of the client when this is used. The path following
|
|
this option specifies where the x509 certificates are to be loaded from.
|
|
See the @ref{vnc_security} section for details on generating certificates.
|
|
|
|
@item x509verify=@var{/path/to/certificate/dir}
|
|
|
|
Valid if @option{tls} is specified. Require that x509 credentials are used
|
|
for negotiating the TLS session. The server will send its x509 certificate
|
|
to the client, and request that the client send its own x509 certificate.
|
|
The server will validate the client's certificate against the CA certificate,
|
|
and reject clients when validation fails. If the certificate authority is
|
|
trusted, this is a sufficient authentication mechanism. You may still wish
|
|
to set a password on the VNC server as a second authentication layer. The
|
|
path following this option specifies where the x509 certificates are to
|
|
be loaded from. See the @ref{vnc_security} section for details on generating
|
|
certificates.
|
|
|
|
@item sasl
|
|
|
|
Require that the client use SASL to authenticate with the VNC server.
|
|
The exact choice of authentication method used is controlled from the
|
|
system / user's SASL configuration file for the 'qemu' service. This
|
|
is typically found in /etc/sasl2/qemu.conf. If running QEMU as an
|
|
unprivileged user, an environment variable SASL_CONF_PATH can be used
|
|
to make it search alternate locations for the service config.
|
|
While some SASL auth methods can also provide data encryption (eg GSSAPI),
|
|
it is recommended that SASL always be combined with the 'tls' and
|
|
'x509' settings to enable use of SSL and server certificates. This
|
|
ensures a data encryption preventing compromise of authentication
|
|
credentials. See the @ref{vnc_security} section for details on using
|
|
SASL authentication.
|
|
|
|
@item acl
|
|
|
|
Turn on access control lists for checking of the x509 client certificate
|
|
and SASL party. For x509 certs, the ACL check is made against the
|
|
certificate's distinguished name. This is something that looks like
|
|
@code{C=GB,O=ACME,L=Boston,CN=bob}. For SASL party, the ACL check is
|
|
made against the username, which depending on the SASL plugin, may
|
|
include a realm component, eg @code{bob} or @code{bob@@EXAMPLE.COM}.
|
|
When the @option{acl} flag is set, the initial access list will be
|
|
empty, with a @code{deny} policy. Thus no one will be allowed to
|
|
use the VNC server until the ACLs have been loaded. This can be
|
|
achieved using the @code{acl} monitor command.

|
|
@findex -net
|
|
Create a new Network Interface Card and connect it to VLAN @var{n} (@var{n}
|
|
= 0 is the default). The NIC is an e1000 by default on the PC
|
|
target. Optionally, the MAC address can be changed to @var{mac}, the
|
|
device address set to @var{addr} (PCI cards only),
|
|
and a @var{name} can be assigned for use in monitor commands.
|
|
Optionally, for PCI cards, you can specify the number @var{v} of MSI-X vectors
|
|
that the card should have; this option currently only affects virtio cards; set
|
|
@var{v} = 0 to disable MSI-X. If no @option{-net} option is specified, a single
|
|
NIC is created. Qemu can emulate several different models of network card.
|
|
Valid values for @var{type} are
|
|
@code{virtio}, @code{i82551}, @code{i82557b}, @code{i82559er},
|
|
@code{ne2k_pci}, @code{ne2k_isa}, @code{pcnet}, @code{rtl8139},
|
|
@code{e1000}, @code{smc91c111}, @code{lance} and @code{mcf_fec}.
|
|
Not all devices are supported on all targets. Use -net nic,model=?
|
|
for a list of available devices for your target.
|
|
|
|
@item -net user[,@var{option}][,@var{option}][,...]
|
|
Use the user mode network stack which requires no administrator
|
|
privilege to run. Valid options are:
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
@item vlan=@var{n}
|
|
Connect user mode stack to VLAN @var{n} (@var{n} = 0 is the default).
|
|
|
|
@item name=@var{name}
|
|
Assign symbolic name for use in monitor commands.
|
|
|
|
@item net=@var{addr}[/@var{mask}]
|
|
Set IP network address the guest will see. Optionally specify the netmask,
|
|
either in the form a.b.c.d or as number of valid top-most bits. Default is
|
|
10.0.2.0/8.
|
|
|
|
@item host=@var{addr}
|
|
Specify the guest-visible address of the host. Default is the 2nd IP in the
|
|
guest network, i.e. x.x.x.2.
|
|
|
|
@item restrict=y|yes|n|no
|
|
If this options is enabled, the guest will be isolated, i.e. it will not be
|
|
able to contact the host and no guest IP packets will be routed over the host
|
|
to the outside. This option does not affect explicitly set forwarding rule.
|
|
|
|
@item hostname=@var{name}
|
|
Specifies the client hostname reported by the builtin DHCP server.
|
|
|
|
@item dhcpstart=@var{addr}
|
|
Specify the first of the 16 IPs the built-in DHCP server can assign. Default
|
|
is the 16th to 31st IP in the guest network, i.e. x.x.x.16 to x.x.x.31.
|
|
|
|
@item dns=@var{addr}
|
|
Specify the guest-visible address of the virtual nameserver. The address must
|
|
be different from the host address. Default is the 3rd IP in the guest network,
|
|
i.e. x.x.x.3.
|
|
|
|
@item tftp=@var{dir}
|
|
When using the user mode network stack, activate a built-in TFTP
|
|
server. The files in @var{dir} will be exposed as the root of a TFTP server.
|
|
The TFTP client on the guest must be configured in binary mode (use the command
|
|
@code{bin} of the Unix TFTP client).
|
|
|
|
@item bootfile=@var{file}
|
|
When using the user mode network stack, broadcast @var{file} as the BOOTP
|
|
filename. In conjunction with @option{tftp}, this can be used to network boot
|
|
a guest from a local directory.
|
|
|
|
Example (using pxelinux):
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu -hda linux.img -boot n -net user,tftp=/path/to/tftp/files,bootfile=/pxelinux.0
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item smb=@var{dir}[,smbserver=@var{addr}]
|
|
When using the user mode network stack, activate a built-in SMB
|
|
server so that Windows OSes can access to the host files in @file{@var{dir}}
|
|
transparently. The IP address of the SMB server can be set to @var{addr}. By
|
|
default the 4th IP in the guest network is used, i.e. x.x.x.4.
|
|
|
|
In the guest Windows OS, the line:
|
|
@example
|
|
10.0.2.4 smbserver
|
|
@end example
|
|
must be added in the file @file{C:\WINDOWS\LMHOSTS} (for windows 9x/Me)
|
|
or @file{C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\LMHOSTS} (Windows NT/2000).
|
|
|
|
Then @file{@var{dir}} can be accessed in @file{\\smbserver\qemu}.
|
|
|
|
Note that a SAMBA server must be installed on the host OS in
|
|
@file{/usr/sbin/smbd}. QEMU was tested successfully with smbd versions from
|
|
Red Hat 9, Fedora Core 3 and OpenSUSE 11.x.
|
|
|
|
@item hostfwd=[tcp|udp]:[@var{hostaddr}]:@var{hostport}-[@var{guestaddr}]:@var{guestport}
|
|
Redirect incoming TCP or UDP connections to the host port @var{hostport} to
|
|
the guest IP address @var{guestaddr} on guest port @var{guestport}. If
|
|
@var{guestaddr} is not specified, its value is x.x.x.15 (default first address
|
|
given by the built-in DHCP server). By specifying @var{hostaddr}, the rule can
|
|
be bound to a specific host interface. If no connection type is set, TCP is
|
|
used. This option can be given multiple times.
|
|
|
|
For example, to redirect host X11 connection from screen 1 to guest
|
|
screen 0, use the following:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
# on the host
|
|
qemu -net user,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:6001-:6000 [...]
|
|
# this host xterm should open in the guest X11 server
|
|
xterm -display :1
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
To redirect telnet connections from host port 5555 to telnet port on
|
|
the guest, use the following:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
# on the host
|
|
qemu -net user,hostfwd=tcp::5555-:23 [...]
|
|
telnet localhost 5555
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Then when you use on the host @code{telnet localhost 5555}, you
|
|
connect to the guest telnet server.
|
|
|
|
@item guestfwd=[tcp]:@var{server}:@var{port}-@var{dev}
|
|
Forward guest TCP connections to the IP address @var{server} on port @var{port}
|
|
to the character device @var{dev}. This option can be given multiple times.
|
|
|
|
@end table
|
|
|
|
Note: Legacy stand-alone options -tftp, -bootp, -smb and -redir are still
|
|
processed and applied to -net user. Mixing them with the new configuration
|
|
syntax gives undefined results. Their use for new applications is discouraged
|
|
as they will be removed from future versions.
|
|
|
|
@item -net tap[,vlan=@var{n}][,name=@var{name}][,fd=@var{h}][,ifname=@var{name}] [,script=@var{file}][,downscript=@var{dfile}]
|
|
Connect the host TAP network interface @var{name} to VLAN @var{n}, use
|
|
the network script @var{file} to configure it and the network script
|
|
@var{dfile} to deconfigure it. If @var{name} is not provided, the OS
|
|
automatically provides one. @option{fd}=@var{h} can be used to specify
|
|
the handle of an already opened host TAP interface. The default network
|
|
configure script is @file{/etc/qemu-ifup} and the default network
|
|
deconfigure script is @file{/etc/qemu-ifdown}. Use @option{script=no}
|
|
or @option{downscript=no} to disable script execution. Example:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu linux.img -net nic -net tap
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
More complicated example (two NICs, each one connected to a TAP device)
|
|
@example
|
|
qemu linux.img -net nic,vlan=0 -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0 \
|
|
-net nic,vlan=1 -net tap,vlan=1,ifname=tap1
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item -net socket[,vlan=@var{n}][,name=@var{name}][,fd=@var{h}] [,listen=[@var{host}]:@var{port}][,connect=@var{host}:@var{port}]
|
|
|
|
Connect the VLAN @var{n} to a remote VLAN in another QEMU virtual
|
|
machine using a TCP socket connection. If @option{listen} is
|
|
specified, QEMU waits for incoming connections on @var{port}
|
|
(@var{host} is optional). @option{connect} is used to connect to
|
|
another QEMU instance using the @option{listen} option. @option{fd}=@var{h}
|
|
specifies an already opened TCP socket.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
@example
|
|
# launch a first QEMU instance
|
|
qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \
|
|
-net socket,listen=:1234
|
|
# connect the VLAN 0 of this instance to the VLAN 0
|
|
# of the first instance
|
|
qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:57 \
|
|
-net socket,connect=127.0.0.1:1234
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item -net socket[,vlan=@var{n}][,name=@var{name}][,fd=@var{h}] [,mcast=@var{maddr}:@var{port}]
|
|
|
|
Create a VLAN @var{n} shared with another QEMU virtual
|
|
machines using a UDP multicast socket, effectively making a bus for
|
|
every QEMU with same multicast address @var{maddr} and @var{port}.
|
|
NOTES:
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item
|
|
Several QEMU can be running on different hosts and share same bus (assuming
|
|
correct multicast setup for these hosts).
|
|
@item
|
|
mcast support is compatible with User Mode Linux (argument @option{eth@var{N}=mcast}), see
|
|
@url{http://user-mode-linux.sf.net}.
|
|
@item
|
|
Use @option{fd=h} to specify an already opened UDP multicast socket.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
@example
|
|
# launch one QEMU instance
|
|
qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \
|
|
-net socket,mcast=230.0.0.1:1234
|
|
# launch another QEMU instance on same "bus"
|
|
qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:57 \
|
|
-net socket,mcast=230.0.0.1:1234
|
|
# launch yet another QEMU instance on same "bus"
|
|
qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:58 \
|

@end example
|
|
|
|
@item -net vde[,vlan=@var{n}][,name=@var{name}][,sock=@var{socketpath}] [,port=@var{n}][,group=@var{groupname}][,mode=@var{octalmode}]
|
|
Connect VLAN @var{n} to PORT @var{n} of a vde switch running on host and
|
|
listening for incoming connections on @var{socketpath}. Use GROUP @var{groupname}
|
|
and MODE @var{octalmode} to change default ownership and permissions for
|
|
communication port. This option is available only if QEMU has been compiled
|
|
with vde support enabled.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
@example
|
|
# launch vde switch
|
|
vde_switch -F -sock /tmp/myswitch
|
|
# launch QEMU instance
|
|
qemu linux.img -net nic -net vde,sock=/tmp/myswitch
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item -net dump[,vlan=@var{n}][,file=@var{file}][,len=@var{len}]
|
|
Dump network traffic on VLAN @var{n} to file @var{file} (@file{qemu-vlan0.pcap} by default).
|
|
At most @var{len} bytes (64k by default) per packet are stored. The file format is
|
|
libpcap, so it can be analyzed with tools such as tcpdump or Wireshark.
|
|
|
|
@item -net none
|
|
Indicate that no network devices should be configured. It is used to
|
|
override the default configuration (@option{-net nic -net user}) which
|
|
is activated if no @option{-net} options are provided.

The general form of a character device option is:
|
|
@table @option
|
|
|
|
@item -chardev @var{backend} ,id=@var{id} [,mux=on|off] [,@var{options}]
|
|
@findex -chardev
|
|
Backend is one of:
|
|
@option{null},
|
|
@option{socket},
|
|
@option{udp},
|
|
@option{msmouse},
|
|
@option{vc},
|
|
@option{file},
|
|
@option{pipe},
|
|
@option{console},
|
|
@option{serial},
|
|
@option{pty},
|
|
@option{stdio},
|
|
@option{braille},
|
|
@option{tty},
|
|
@option{parport}.
|
|
The specific backend will determine the applicable options.
|
|
|
|
All devices must have an id, which can be any string up to 127 characters long.
|
|
It is used to uniquely identify this device in other command line directives.
|
|
|
|
A character device may be used in multiplexing mode by multiple front-ends.
|
|
The key sequence of @key{Control-a} and @key{c} will rotate the input focus
|
|
between attached front-ends. Specify @option{mux=on} to enable this mode.
|
|
|
|
Options to each backend are described below.
|
|
|
|
@item -chardev null ,id=@var{id}
|
|
A void device. This device will not emit any data, and will drop any data it
|
|
receives. The null backend does not take any options.
|
|
|
|
@item -chardev socket ,id=@var{id} [@var{TCP options} or @var{unix options}] [,server] [,nowait] [,telnet]
|
|
|
|
Create a two-way stream socket, which can be either a TCP or a unix socket. A
|
|
unix socket will be created if @option{path} is specified. Behaviour is
|
|
undefined if TCP options are specified for a unix socket.
|
|
|
|
@option{server} specifies that the socket shall be a listening socket.
|
|
|
|
@option{nowait} specifies that QEMU should not block waiting for a client to
|
|
connect to a listening socket.
|
|
|
|
@option{telnet} specifies that traffic on the socket should interpret telnet
|
|
escape sequences.
|
|
|
|
TCP and unix socket options are given below:
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
|
|
@item TCP options: port=@var{port} [,host=@var{host}] [,to=@var{to}] [,ipv4] [,ipv6] [,nodelay]
|
|
|
|
@option{host} for a listening socket specifies the local address to be bound.
|
|
For a connecting socket species the remote host to connect to. @option{host} is
|
|
optional for listening sockets. If not specified it defaults to @code{0.0.0.0}.
|
|
|
|
@option{port} for a listening socket specifies the local port to be bound. For a
|
|
connecting socket specifies the port on the remote host to connect to.
|
|
@option{port} can be given as either a port number or a service name.
|
|
@option{port} is required.
|
|

|
@item udp:[@var{remote_host}]:@var{remote_port}[@@[@var{src_ip}]:@var{src_port}]
|
|
This implements UDP Net Console.
|
|
When @var{remote_host} or @var{src_ip} are not specified
|
|
they default to @code{0.0.0.0}.
|
|
When not using a specified @var{src_port} a random port is automatically chosen.
|
|
|
|
If you just want a simple readonly console you can use @code{netcat} or
|
|
@code{nc}, by starting qemu with: @code{-serial udp::4555} and nc as:
|
|
@code{nc -u -l -p 4555}. Any time qemu writes something to that port it
|
|
will appear in the netconsole session.
|
|
|
|
If you plan to send characters back via netconsole or you want to stop
|
|
and start qemu a lot of times, you should have qemu use the same
|
|
source port each time by using something like @code{-serial
|
|
udp::4555@@:4556} to qemu. Another approach is to use a patched
|
|
version of netcat which can listen to a TCP port and send and receive
|
|
characters via udp. If you have a patched version of netcat which
|
|
activates telnet remote echo and single char transfer, then you can
|
|
use the following options to step up a netcat redirector to allow
|
|
telnet on port 5555 to access the qemu port.
|

@item tcp:[@var{host}]:@var{port}[,@var{server}][,nowait][,nodelay]
|
|
The TCP Net Console has two modes of operation. It can send the serial
|
|
I/O to a location or wait for a connection from a location. By default
|
|
the TCP Net Console is sent to @var{host} at the @var{port}. If you use
|
|
the @var{server} option QEMU will wait for a client socket application
|
|
to connect to the port before continuing, unless the @code{nowait}
|
|
option was specified. The @code{nodelay} option disables the Nagle buffering
|
|
algorithm. If @var{host} is omitted, 0.0.0.0 is assumed. Only
|
|
one TCP connection at a time is accepted. You can use @code{telnet} to
|
|
connect to the corresponding character device.

@item telnet:@var{host}:@var{port}[,server][,nowait][,nodelay]
|
|
The telnet protocol is used instead of raw tcp sockets. The options
|
|
work the same as if you had specified @code{-serial tcp}. The
|
|
difference is that the port acts like a telnet server or client using
|
|
telnet option negotiation. This will also allow you to send the
|
|
MAGIC_SYSRQ sequence if you use a telnet that supports sending the break
|
|
sequence. Typically in unix telnet you do it with Control-] and then
|
|
type "send break" followed by pressing the enter key.
|
|
|
|
@item unix:@var{path}[,server][,nowait]
|
|
A unix domain socket is used instead of a tcp socket. The option works the
|
|
same as if you had specified @code{-serial tcp} except the unix domain socket
|
|
@var{path} is used for connections.
|
|
|
|
@item mon:@var{dev_string}
|
|
This is a special option to allow the monitor to be multiplexed onto

@key{Control-a} and then pressing @key{c}. See monitor access
|
|
@ref{pcsys_keys} in the -nographic section for more keys.
|

@var{dev_string} should be any one of the serial devices specified

|
@findex -rtc
|
|
Specify @option{base} as @code{utc} or @code{localtime} to let the RTC start at the current
|
|
UTC or local time, respectively. @code{localtime} is required for correct date in
|
|
MS-DOS or Windows. To start at a specific point in time, provide @var{date} in the
|
|
format @code{2006-06-17T16:01:21} or @code{2006-06-17}. The default base is UTC.
|
|
|
|
By default the RTC is driven by the host system time. This allows to use the
|
|
RTC as accurate reference clock inside the guest, specifically if the host
|
|
time is smoothly following an accurate external reference clock, e.g. via NTP.
|
|
If you want to isolate the guest time from the host, even prevent it from
|
|
progressing during suspension, you can set @option{clock} to @code{vm} instead.
|
|
|
|
Enable @option{driftfix} (i386 targets only) if you experience time drift problems,
|
|
specifically with Windows' ACPI HAL. This option will try to figure out how
|
|
many timer interrupts were not processed by the Windows guest and will
|
|
re-inject them.

Note that while this option can give deterministic behavior, it does not

provide cycle accurate emulation. Modern CPUs contain superscalar out of

@item -watchdog @var{model}

|

Create a virtual hardware watchdog device. Once enabled (by a guest
|
|
action), the watchdog must be periodically polled by an agent inside
|
|
the guest or else the guest will be restarted.
|
|
|
|
The @var{model} is the model of hardware watchdog to emulate. Choices
|
|
for model are: @code{ib700} (iBASE 700) which is a very simple ISA
|
|
watchdog with a single timer, or @code{i6300esb} (Intel 6300ESB I/O
|
|
controller hub) which is a much more featureful PCI-based dual-timer
|
|
watchdog. Choose a model for which your guest has drivers.
|
|
|
|
Use @code{-watchdog ?} to list available hardware models. Only one
|
|
watchdog can be enabled for a guest.

|
@item -watchdog-action @var{action}
|
|
|
|
The @var{action} controls what QEMU will do when the watchdog timer
|
|
expires.
|
|
The default is
|
|
@code{reset} (forcefully reset the guest).
|
|
Other possible actions are:
|
|
@code{shutdown} (attempt to gracefully shutdown the guest),
|
|
@code{poweroff} (forcefully poweroff the guest),
|
|
@code{pause} (pause the guest),
|
|
@code{debug} (print a debug message and continue), or
|
|
@code{none} (do nothing).
|
|
|
|
Note that the @code{shutdown} action requires that the guest responds
|
|
to ACPI signals, which it may not be able to do in the sort of
|
|
situations where the watchdog would have expired, and thus
|
|
@code{-watchdog-action shutdown} is not recommended for production use.
