= Proposed Self Contained Change: 64bit ARM emulation on x86 =
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Virt_64bit_ARM_on_x86
Change owner(s): Cole Robinson crobi...@redhat.com
Allow running 64bit ARM (AArch64) VMs on x86 hosts using standard the standard
qemu and libvirt stack, as well as end user tools like virt-manager and virt-
install.
== Detailed Description ==
Work is quickly under way in upstream qemu to enable full AArch64 system
emulation with qemu-system-aarch64. This 'Change' will track landing that work
in Fedora 21, in addition to the higher level bits in libvirt and virt-manager
to ensure it's all usable with standard tools.
To be clear, this stuff is still in progress in upstream qemu and I'm not
really involved with the development, so it's very much 'wait and see' to
determine if the actual emulation bits will make it in time for Fedora 21.
== Scope ==
* Proposal owners:
1. Wait and see if the qemu bits will land in time for Fedora 21.
2. Once that takes shape, figure out the remaining work to get libvirt/virt-
manager to support it (shouldn't be anything too drastic)
3. Document it all
