Hello, I would like to be able to run QEMU guest with some extent of determinism. I.e., if QEMU starts from a snapshot - assuming that there are no keyboard, mouse, and network inputs - I'd like to always get the same instruction sequence for the whole system. AFAICS, there already were attempts to implement such a functionality, like this: https://compas.cs.stonybrook.edu/downloads/qemu-deterministic/
Does the above patch look relevant with regards to the current QEMU architecture? On the other hand, perhaps the most recent version already contains something like that - out of the box? Since I'm not quite familiar with QEMU internals, I'd appreciate any pointer. (Please note that I mean here a "live" deterministic run, rather that deterministic replay that was discussed before: https://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-discuss@nongnu.org/msg01723.html) Thanks.
