Maybe it can be useful. Perhaps you could also use it to improve QEMU documentation, for example clarifying qemu-tech.texi and adding comments to poorly commented source files? On page 30, the architecture list is slightly misleading. For example, i386 directory contains support for both x86_32 and x86_64, likewise MIPS, SPARC and PPC. p. 31: GCC was used only during QEMU build even with dyngen. A C file containing the ops was compiled with GCC, this was processed by dyngen tool to extract the host machine instructions for each op. p. 36 Figure 7.6: the ops are corrupted. There are a few typos, for example QEMU is not written using correct case in the chapter heading, which repeats on the top of every page...
