1 # q35 - VirtIO guest (serial console)
2 # =========================================================
3 #
4 # Usage:
5 #
6 # $ qemu-system-x86_64 \
7 # -nodefaults \
8 # -readconfig q35-virtio-serial.cfg \
9 # -display none -serial mon:stdio
10 #
11 # You will probably need to tweak the lines marked as
12 # CHANGE ME before being able to use this configuration!
13 #
14 # The guest will have a selection of VirtIO devices
15 # tailored towards optimal performance with modern guests,
16 # and will be accessed through the serial console.
17 #
18 # ---------------------------------------------------------
19 #
20 # Using -nodefaults is required to have full control over
21 # the virtual hardware: when it's specified, QEMU will
22 # populate the board with only the builtin peripherals
23 # plus a small selection of core PCI devices and
24 # controllers; the user will then have to explicitly add
25 # further devices.
26 #
27 # The core PCI devices show up in the guest as:
28 #
29 # 00:00.0 Host bridge
30 # 00:1f.0 ISA bridge / LPC
31 # 00:1f.2 SATA (AHCI) controller
32 # 00:1f.3 SMBus controller
33 #
34 # This configuration file adds a number of other useful
35 # devices, more specifically:
36 #
37 # 00.1c.* PCI bridge (PCI Express Root Ports)
38 # 01:00.0 SCSI storage controller
39 # 02:00.0 Ethernet controller
40 #
41 # More information about these devices is available below.
42 #
43 # We use '-display none' to prevent QEMU from creating a
44 # graphical display window, which would serve no use in
45 # this specific configuration, and '-serial mon:stdio' to
46 # multiplex the guest's serial console and the QEMU monitor
47 # to the host's stdio; use 'Ctrl+A h' to learn how to
48 # switch between the two and more.

50
51 # Machine options
52 # =========================================================
53 #
54 # We use the q35 machine type and enable KVM acceleration
55 # for better performance.
56 #
57 # Using less than 1 GiB of memory is probably not going to
58 # yield good performance in the guest, and might even lead
59 # to obscure boot issues in some cases.
