1. 옵션 설명
usage: qemu [options] [disk_image]

disk_image is a raw hard disk image for IDE hard disk 0. Some targets do not need a disk image.
disk_image는 IDE하드디스크0번에 해당하는 row디스크 이미지 입니다. 때에따라 생략 되기도 합니다.

Standard options:
‘-h’
    Display help and exit
    도움말및 종료 표시

‘-version’
    Display version information and exit
    버전정보및 종료 표시

‘-M machine’
    Select the emulated machine (-M ? for list)
    에뮬레이트할 장치 선택

‘-cpu model’
    Select CPU model (-cpu ? for list and additional feature selection)
    CPU모델 선택

‘-smp n[,cores=cores][,threads=threads][,sockets=sockets][,maxcpus=maxcpus]’
    Simulate an SMP system with n CPUs. On the PC target, up to 255 CPUs are supported. On Sparc32 target, Linux limits the number of usable CPUs to 4. For the PC target, the number of cores per socket, the number of threads per cores and the total number of sockets can be specified. Missing values will be computed. If any on the three values is given, the total number of CPUs n can be omitted. maxcpus specifies the maximum number of hotpluggable CPUs.

‘-numa opts’
    Simulate a multi node NUMA system. If mem and cpus are omitted, resources are split equally.

‘-fda file’
‘-fdb file’
    Use file as floppy disk 0/1 image (see section Disk Images). You can use the host floppy by using ‘/dev/fd0’ as filename (see section Using host drives).

‘-hda file’
‘-hdb file’
‘-hdc file’
‘-hdd file’
    Use file as hard disk 0, 1, 2 or 3 image (see section Disk Images).
    하드디스크 이미지 파일 사용.

‘-cdrom file’
    Use file as CD-ROM image (you cannot use ‘-hdc’ and ‘-cdrom’ at the same time). You can use the host CD-ROM by using ‘/dev/cdrom’ as filename (see section Using host drives).
    CD-ROM이미지 파일 사용

‘-drive option[,option[,option[,...]]]’
    Define a new drive. Valid options are:

    ‘file=file’
        This option defines which disk image (see section 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").

    ‘if=interface’
        This option defines on which type on interface the drive is connected. Available types are: ide, scsi, sd, mtd, floppy, pflash, virtio.

    ‘bus=bus,unit=unit’
        These options define where is connected the drive by defining the bus number and the unit id.

    ‘index=index’
        This option defines where is connected the drive by using an index in the list of available connectors of a given interface type.

    ‘media=media’
        This option defines the type of the media: disk or cdrom.

    ‘cyls=c,heads=h,secs=s[,trans=t]’
        These options have the same definition as they have in ‘-hdachs’.

    ‘snapshot=snapshot’
        snapshot is "on" or "off" and allows to enable snapshot for given drive (see ‘-snapshot’).

    ‘cache=cache’
        cache is "none", "writeback", or "writethrough" and controls how the host cache is used to access block data.

    ‘aio=aio’
        aio is "threads", or "native" and selects between pthread based disk I/O and native Linux AIO.

    ‘format=format’
        Specify which disk format will be used rather than detecting the format. Can be used to specifiy format=raw to avoid interpreting an untrusted format header.

    ‘serial=serial’
        This option specifies the serial number to assign to the device.

    ‘addr=addr’
        Specify the controller’s PCI address (if=virtio only).

    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 ‘-snapshot’ option, writeback caching is used by default.

    The host page cache can be avoided entirely with ‘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 ‘cache=writethrough’, most notably, qcow2. If performance is more important than correctness, ‘cache=writeback’ should be used with qcow2.

    Instead of ‘-cdrom’ you can use:
        

    qemu -drive file=file,index=2,media=cdrom

    Instead of ‘-hda’, ‘-hdb’, ‘-hdc’, ‘-hdd’, you can use:
        

    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

    You can connect a CDROM to the slave of ide0:
        

    qemu -drive file=file,if=ide,index=1,media=cdrom

    If you don’t specify the "file=" argument, you define an empty drive:
        

    qemu -drive if=ide,index=1,media=cdrom

    You can connect a SCSI disk with unit ID 6 on the bus #0:
        

    qemu -drive file=file,if=scsi,bus=0,unit=6

    Instead of ‘-fda’, ‘-fdb’, you can use:
        

    qemu -drive file=file,index=0,if=floppy
    qemu -drive file=file,index=1,if=floppy

    By default, interface is "ide" and index is automatically incremented:
        

    qemu -drive file=a -drive file=b"

    is interpreted like:
        

    qemu -hda a -hdb b

‘-mtdblock file’
    Use file as on-board Flash memory image.

‘-sd file’
    Use file as SecureDigital card image.

‘-pflash file’
    Use file as a parallel flash image.

‘-boot [order=drives][,once=drives][,menu=on|off]’
    Specify boot order drives as a string of drive letters. Valid drive letters depend on the target achitecture. The x86 PC uses: a, b (floppy 1 and 2), c (first hard disk), d (first CD-ROM), n-p (Etherboot from network adapter 1-4), hard disk boot is the default. To apply a particular boot order only on the first startup, specify it via ‘once’.

    Interactive boot menus/prompts can be enabled via ‘menu=on’ as far as firmware/BIOS supports them. The default is non-interactive boot.
        

    # try to boot from network first, then from hard disk
    qemu -boot order=nc
    # boot from CD-ROM first, switch back to default order after reboot
    qemu -boot once=d

    Note: The legacy format ’-boot drives’ is still supported but its use is discouraged as it may be removed from future versions.
‘-snapshot’

    Write to temporary files instead of disk image files. In this case, the raw disk image you use is not written back. You can however force the write back by pressing <C-a s> (see section Disk Images).
‘-m megs’

    Set virtual RAM size to megs megabytes. Default is 128 MiB. Optionally, a suffix of “M” or “G” can be used to signify a value in megabytes or gigabytes respectively.
‘-k language’

    Use keyboard layout language (for example fr for French). This option is only needed where it is not easy to get raw PC keycodes (e.g. on Macs, with some X11 servers or with a VNC display). You don’t normally need to use it on PC/Linux or PC/Windows hosts.

    The available layouts are:
        

    ar  de-ch  es  fo     fr-ca  hu  ja  mk     no  pt-br  sv
    da  en-gb  et  fr     fr-ch  is  lt  nl     pl  ru     th
    de  en-us  fi  fr-be  hr     it  lv  nl-be  pt  sl     tr

    The default is en-us.
‘-audio-help’

    Will show the audio subsystem help: list of drivers, tunable parameters.
‘-soundhw card1[,card2,...] or -soundhw all’

    Enable audio and selected sound hardware. Use ? to print all available sound hardware.
        

    qemu -soundhw sb16,adlib disk.img
    qemu -soundhw es1370 disk.img
    qemu -soundhw ac97 disk.img
    qemu -soundhw all disk.img
    qemu -soundhw ?

    Note that Linux’s i810_audio OSS kernel (for AC97) module might require manually specifying clocking.
        

    modprobe i810_audio clocking=48000

USB options:

‘-usb’

    Enable the USB driver (will be the default soon)
‘-usbdevice devname’

    Add the USB device devname. See section Connecting USB devices.

    ‘mouse’

        Virtual Mouse. This will override the PS/2 mouse emulation when activated.
    ‘tablet’

        Pointer device that uses absolute coordinates (like a touchscreen). This means qemu is able to report the mouse position without having to grab the mouse. Also overrides the PS/2 mouse emulation when activated.
    ‘disk:[format=format]:file’

        Mass storage device based on file. The optional format argument will be used rather than detecting the format. Can be used to specifiy format=raw to avoid interpreting an untrusted format header.
    ‘host:bus.addr’

        Pass through the host device identified by bus.addr (Linux only).
    ‘host:vendor_id:product_id’

        Pass through the host device identified by vendor_id:product_id (Linux only).
    ‘serial:[vendorid=vendor_id][,productid=product_id]:dev’

        Serial converter to host character device dev, see -serial for the available devices.
    ‘braille’

        Braille device. This will use BrlAPI to display the braille output on a real or fake device.
    ‘net:options’

        Network adapter that supports CDC ethernet and RNDIS protocols.

‘-device driver[,option[,...]]’

    Add device driver. Depending on the device type, option (typically key=value) may be useful.
‘-name name’

    Sets the name of the guest. This name will be displayed in the SDL window caption. The name will also be used for the VNC server. Also optionally set the top visible process name in Linux.
‘-uuid uuid’

    Set system UUID.

Display options:

‘-nographic’

    Normally, QEMU uses SDL to display the VGA output. With this option, you can totally disable graphical output so that QEMU is a simple command line application. The emulated serial port is redirected on the console. Therefore, you can still use QEMU to debug a Linux kernel with a serial console.
‘-curses’

    Normally, QEMU uses SDL to display the VGA output. With this option, QEMU can display the VGA output when in text mode using a curses/ncurses interface. Nothing is displayed in graphical mode.
‘-no-frame’

    Do not use decorations for SDL windows and start them using the whole available screen space. This makes the using QEMU in a dedicated desktop workspace more convenient.
‘-alt-grab’

    Use Ctrl-Alt-Shift to grab mouse (instead of Ctrl-Alt).
‘-ctrl-grab’

    Use Right-Ctrl to grab mouse (instead of Ctrl-Alt).
‘-no-quit’

    Disable SDL window close capability.
‘-sdl’

    Enable SDL.
‘-portrait’

    Rotate graphical output 90 deg left (only PXA LCD).
‘-vga type’

    Select type of VGA card to emulate. Valid values for type are

    ‘cirrus’

        Cirrus Logic GD5446 Video card. All Windows versions starting from Windows 95 should recognize and use this graphic card. For optimal performances, use 16 bit color depth in the guest and the host OS. (This one is the default)
    ‘std’

        Standard VGA card with Bochs VBE extensions. If your guest OS supports the VESA 2.0 VBE extensions (e.g. Windows XP) and if you want to use high resolution modes (>= 1280x1024x16) then you should use this option.
    ‘vmware’

        VMWare SVGA-II compatible adapter. Use it if you have sufficiently recent XFree86/XOrg server or Windows guest with a driver for this card.
    ‘none’

        Disable VGA card.

‘-full-screen’

    Start in full screen.
‘-vnc display[,option[,option[,...]]]’

    Normally, QEMU uses SDL to display the VGA output. With this option, you can have QEMU listen on VNC display display and redirect the VGA display over the VNC session. It is very useful to enable the usb tablet device when using this option (option ‘-usbdevice tablet’). When using the VNC display, you must use the ‘-k’ parameter to set the keyboard layout if you are not using en-us. Valid syntax for the display is

    ‘host:d’

        TCP connections will only be allowed from host on display d. By convention the TCP port is 5900+d. Optionally, host can be omitted in which case the server will accept connections from any host.
    ‘unix:path’

        Connections will be allowed over UNIX domain sockets where path is the location of a unix socket to listen for connections on.
    ‘none’

        VNC is initialized but not started. The monitor change command can be used to later start the VNC server.

    Following the display value there may be one or more option flags separated by commas. Valid options are

    ‘reverse’

        Connect to a listening VNC client via a “reverse” connection. The client is specified by the display. For reverse network connections (host:d,reverse), the d argument is a TCP port number, not a display number.
    ‘password’

        Require that password based authentication is used for client connections. The password must be set separately using the change command in the QEMU Monitor
    ‘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 ‘x509’ or ‘x509verify’ options.
    ‘x509=/path/to/certificate/dir’

        Valid if ‘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 VNC security section for details on generating certificates.
    ‘x509verify=/path/to/certificate/dir’

        Valid if ‘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 VNC security section for details on generating certificates.
    ‘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 VNC security section for details on using SASL authentication.
    ‘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 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 bob or bob@EXAMPLE.COM. When the ‘acl’ flag is set, the initial access list will be empty, with a 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 acl monitor command.

i386 target only:

‘-win2k-hack’

    Use it when installing Windows 2000 to avoid a disk full bug. After Windows 2000 is installed, you no longer need this option (this option slows down the IDE transfers).
‘-no-fd-bootchk’

    Disable boot signature checking for floppy disks in Bochs BIOS. It may be needed to boot from old floppy disks.
‘-no-acpi’

    Disable ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) support. Use it if your guest OS complains about ACPI problems (PC target machine only).
‘-no-hpet’

    Disable HPET support.
‘-balloon none’

    Disable balloon device.
‘-balloon virtio[,addr=addr]’

    Enable virtio balloon device (default), optionally with PCI address addr.
‘-acpitable [sig=str][,rev=n][,oem_id=str][,oem_table_id=str][,oem_rev=n] [,asl_compiler_id=str][,asl_compiler_rev=n][,data=file1[:file2]...]’

    Add ACPI table with specified header fields and context from specified files.
‘-smbios file=binary’

    Load SMBIOS entry from binary file.
‘-smbios type=0[,vendor=str][,version=str][,date=str][,release=%d.%d]’

    Specify SMBIOS type 0 fields
‘-smbios type=1[,manufacturer=str][,product=str][,version=str][,serial=str][,uuid=uuid][,sku=str][,family=str]’

    Specify SMBIOS type 1 fields

Network options:

‘-net nic[,vlan=n][,macaddr=mac][,model=type][,name=name][,addr=addr][,vectors=v]’

    Create a new Network Interface Card and connect it to VLAN n (n = 0 is the default). The NIC is an e1000 by default on the PC target. Optionally, the MAC address can be changed to mac, the device address set to addr (PCI cards only), and a name can be assigned for use in monitor commands. Optionally, for PCI cards, you can specify the number v of MSI-X vectors that the card should have; this option currently only affects virtio cards; set v = 0 to disable MSI-X. If no ‘-net’ option is specified, a single NIC is created. Qemu can emulate several different models of network card. Valid values for type are virtio, i82551, i82557b, i82559er, ne2k_pci, ne2k_isa, pcnet, rtl8139, e1000, smc91c111, lance and mcf_fec. Not all devices are supported on all targets. Use -net nic,model=? for a list of available devices for your target.
‘-net user[,option][,option][,...]’

    Use the user mode network stack which requires no administrator privilege to run. Valid options are:

    ‘vlan=n’

        Connect user mode stack to VLAN n (n = 0 is the default).
    ‘name=name’

        Assign symbolic name for use in monitor commands.
    ‘net=addr[/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.
    ‘host=addr’

        Specify the guest-visible address of the host. Default is the 2nd IP in the guest network, i.e. x.x.x.2.
    ‘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.
    ‘hostname=name’

        Specifies the client hostname reported by the builtin DHCP server.
    ‘dhcpstart=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.
    ‘dns=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.
    ‘tftp=dir’

        When using the user mode network stack, activate a built-in TFTP server. The files in 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 bin of the Unix TFTP client).
    ‘bootfile=file’

        When using the user mode network stack, broadcast file as the BOOTP filename. In conjunction with ‘tftp’, this can be used to network boot a guest from a local directory.

        Example (using pxelinux):
            

        qemu -hda linux.img -boot n -net user,tftp=/path/to/tftp/files,bootfile=/pxelinux.0

    ‘smb=dir[,smbserver=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 ‘dir’ transparently. The IP address of the SMB server can be set to 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:
            

        10.0.2.4 smbserver

        must be added in the file ‘C:\WINDOWS\LMHOSTS’ (for windows 9x/Me) or ‘C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\LMHOSTS’ (Windows NT/2000).

        Then ‘dir’ can be accessed in ‘\\smbserver\qemu’.

        Note that a SAMBA server must be installed on the host OS in ‘/usr/sbin/smbd’. QEMU was tested successfully with smbd versions from Red Hat 9, Fedora Core 3 and OpenSUSE 11.x.
    ‘hostfwd=[tcp|udp]:[hostaddr]:hostport-[guestaddr]:guestport’

        Redirect incoming TCP or UDP connections to the host port hostport to the guest IP address guestaddr on guest port guestport. If guestaddr is not specified, its value is x.x.x.15 (default first address given by the built-in DHCP server). By specifying 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:
            

        # 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

        To redirect telnet connections from host port 5555 to telnet port on the guest, use the following:
            

        # on the host
        qemu -net user,hostfwd=tcp:5555::23 [...]
        telnet localhost 5555

        Then when you use on the host telnet localhost 5555, you connect to the guest telnet server.
    ‘guestfwd=[tcp]:server:port-dev’

        Forward guest TCP connections to the IP address server on port port to the character device dev. This option can be given multiple times.

    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.
‘-net tap[,vlan=n][,name=name][,fd=h][,ifname=name][,script=file][,downscript=dfile]’

    Connect the host TAP network interface name to VLAN n, use the network script file to configure it and the network script dfile to deconfigure it. If name is not provided, the OS automatically provides one. ‘fd’=h can be used to specify the handle of an already opened host TAP interface. The default network configure script is ‘/etc/qemu-ifup’ and the default network deconfigure script is ‘/etc/qemu-ifdown’. Use ‘script=no’ or ‘downscript=no’ to disable script execution. Example:
        

    qemu linux.img -net nic -net tap

    More complicated example (two NICs, each one connected to a TAP device)
        

    qemu linux.img -net nic,vlan=0 -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0 \
    -net nic,vlan=1 -net tap,vlan=1,ifname=tap1

‘-net socket[,vlan=n][,name=name][,fd=h][,listen=[host]:port][,connect=host:port]’

    Connect the VLAN n to a remote VLAN in another QEMU virtual machine using a TCP socket connection. If ‘listen’ is specified, QEMU waits for incoming connections on port (host is optional). ‘connect’ is used to connect to another QEMU instance using the ‘listen’ option. ‘fd’=h specifies an already opened TCP socket.

    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

‘-net socket[,vlan=n][,name=name][,fd=h][,mcast=maddr:port]’

    Create a VLAN n shared with another QEMU virtual machines using a UDP multicast socket, effectively making a bus for every QEMU with same multicast address maddr and port. NOTES:

       1. Several QEMU can be running on different hosts and share same bus (assuming correct multicast setup for these hosts).
       2. mcast support is compatible with User Mode Linux (argument ‘ethN=mcast’), see http://user-mode-linux.sf.net.
       3. Use ‘fd=h’ to specify an already opened UDP multicast socket.

    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 \
    -net socket,mcast=230.0.0.1:1234

    Example (User Mode Linux compat.):
        

    # launch QEMU instance (note mcast address selected
    # is UML's default)
    qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \
    -net socket,mcast=239.192.168.1:1102
    # launch UML
    /path/to/linux ubd0=/path/to/root_fs eth0=mcast

‘-net vde[,vlan=n][,name=name][,sock=socketpath][,port=n][,group=groupname][,mode=octalmode]’

    Connect VLAN n to PORT n of a vde switch running on host and listening for incoming connections on socketpath. Use GROUP groupname and MODE 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:
        

    # launch vde switch
    vde_switch -F -sock /tmp/myswitch
    # launch QEMU instance
    qemu linux.img -net nic -net vde,sock=/tmp/myswitch

‘-net dump[,vlan=n][,file=file][,len=len]’

    Dump network traffic on VLAN n to file file (‘qemu-vlan0.pcap’ by default). At most 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.
‘-net none’

    Indicate that no network devices should be configured. It is used to override the default configuration (‘-net nic -net user’) which is activated if no ‘-net’ options are provided.

Character device options:

The general form of a character device option is:

‘-chardev backend ,id=id [,options]’

    Backend is one of: ‘null’, ‘socket’, ‘udp’, ‘msmouse’, ‘vc’, ‘file’, ‘pipe’, ‘console’, ‘serial’, ‘pty’, ‘stdio’, ‘braille’, ‘tty’, ‘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.

    Options to each backend are described below.
‘-chardev null ,id=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.
‘-chardev socket ,id=id [TCP options or 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 ‘path’ is specified. Behaviour is undefined if TCP options are specified for a unix socket.

    ‘server’ specifies that the socket shall be a listening socket.

    ‘nowait’ specifies that QEMU should not block waiting for a client to connect to a listening socket.

    ‘telnet’ specifies that traffic on the socket should interpret telnet escape sequences.

    TCP and unix socket options are given below:

    ‘TCP options: port=host [,host=host] [,to=to] [,ipv4] [,ipv6] [,nodelay]’

        ‘host’ for a listening socket specifies the local address to be bound. For a connecting socket species the remote host to connect to. ‘host’ is optional for listening sockets. If not specified it defaults to 0.0.0.0.

        ‘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. ‘port’ can be given as either a port number or a service name. ‘port’ is required.

        ‘to’ is only relevant to listening sockets. If it is specified, and ‘port’ cannot be bound, QEMU will attempt to bind to subsequent ports up to and including ‘to’ until it succeeds. ‘to’ must be specified as a port number.

        ‘ipv4’ and ‘ipv6’ specify that either IPv4 or IPv6 must be used. If neither is specified the socket may use either protocol.

        ‘nodelay’ disables the Nagle algorithm.
    ‘unix options: path=path’

        ‘path’ specifies the local path of the unix socket. ‘path’ is required.

‘-chardev udp ,id=id [,host=host] ,port=port [,localaddr=localaddr] [,localport=localport] [,ipv4] [,ipv6]’

    Sends all traffic from the guest to a remote host over UDP.

    ‘host’ specifies the remote host to connect to. If not specified it defaults to localhost.

    ‘port’ specifies the port on the remote host to connect to. ‘port’ is required.

    ‘localaddr’ specifies the local address to bind to. If not specified it defaults to 0.0.0.0.

    ‘localport’ specifies the local port to bind to. If not specified any available local port will be used.

    ‘ipv4’ and ‘ipv6’ specify that either IPv4 or IPv6 must be used. If neither is specified the device may use either protocol.
‘-chardev msmouse ,id=id’

    Forward QEMU’s emulated msmouse events to the guest. ‘msmouse’ does not take any options.
‘-chardev vc ,id=id [[,width=width] [,height=height]] [[,cols=cols] [,rows=rows]]’

    Connect to a QEMU text console. ‘vc’ may optionally be given a specific size.

    ‘width’ and ‘height’ specify the width and height respectively of the console, in pixels.

    ‘cols’ and ‘rows’ specify that the console be sized to fit a text console with the given dimensions.
‘-chardev file ,id=id ,path=path’

    Log all traffic received from the guest to a file.

    ‘path’ specifies the path of the file to be opened. This file will be created if it does not already exist, and overwritten if it does. ‘path’ is required.
‘-chardev pipe ,id=id ,path=path’

    Create a two-way connection to the guest. The behaviour differs slightly between Windows hosts and other hosts:

    On Windows, a single duplex pipe will be created at ‘\\.pipe\‘path’’.

    On other hosts, 2 pipes will be created called ‘‘path’.in’ and ‘‘path’.out’. Data written to ‘‘path’.in’ will be received by the guest. Data written by the guest can be read from ‘‘path’.out’. QEMU will not create these fifos, and requires them to be present.

    ‘path’ forms part of the pipe path as described above. ‘path’ is required.
‘-chardev console ,id=id’

    Send traffic from the guest to QEMU’s standard output. ‘console’ does not take any options.

    ‘console’ is only available on Windows hosts.
‘-chardev serial ,id=id ,path=‘path’’

    Send traffic from the guest to a serial device on the host.

    ‘serial’ is only available on Windows hosts.

    ‘path’ specifies the name of the serial device to open.
‘-chardev pty ,id=id’

    Create a new pseudo-terminal on the host and connect to it. ‘pty’ does not take any options.

    ‘pty’ is not available on Windows hosts.
‘-chardev stdio ,id=id’

    Connect to standard input and standard output of the qemu process. ‘stdio’ does not take any options. ‘stdio’ is not available on Windows hosts.
‘-chardev braille ,id=id’

    Connect to a local BrlAPI server. ‘braille’ does not take any options.
‘-chardev tty ,id=id ,path=path’

    Connect to a local tty device.

    ‘tty’ is only available on Linux, Sun, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD hosts.

    ‘path’ specifies the path to the tty. ‘path’ is required.
‘-chardev parport ,id=id ,path=path’

    ‘parport’ is only available on Linux, FreeBSD and DragonFlyBSD hosts.

    Connect to a local parallel port.

    ‘path’ specifies the path to the parallel port device. ‘path’ is required.

Bluetooth(R) options:

‘-bt hci[...]’

    Defines the function of the corresponding Bluetooth HCI. -bt options are matched with the HCIs present in the chosen machine type. For example when emulating a machine with only one HCI built into it, only the first -bt hci[...] option is valid and defines the HCI’s logic. The Transport Layer is decided by the machine type. Currently the machines n800 and n810 have one HCI and all other machines have none.

    The following three types are recognized:

    ‘-bt hci,null’

        (default) The corresponding Bluetooth HCI assumes no internal logic and will not respond to any HCI commands or emit events.
    ‘-bt hci,host[:id]’

        (bluez only) The corresponding HCI passes commands / events to / from the physical HCI identified by the name id (default: hci0) on the computer running QEMU. Only available on bluez capable systems like Linux.
    ‘-bt hci[,vlan=n]’

        Add a virtual, standard HCI that will participate in the Bluetooth scatternet n (default 0). Similarly to ‘-net’ VLANs, devices inside a bluetooth network n can only communicate with other devices in the same network (scatternet).

‘-bt vhci[,vlan=n]’

    (Linux-host only) Create a HCI in scatternet n (default 0) attached to the host bluetooth stack instead of to the emulated target. This allows the host and target machines to participate in a common scatternet and communicate. Requires the Linux vhci driver installed. Can be used as following:
        

    qemu [...OPTIONS...] -bt hci,vlan=5 -bt vhci,vlan=5

‘-bt device:dev[,vlan=n]’

    Emulate a bluetooth device dev and place it in network n (default 0). QEMU can only emulate one type of bluetooth devices currently:

    ‘keyboard’

        Virtual wireless keyboard implementing the HIDP bluetooth profile.

Linux/Multiboot boot specific:

When using these options, you can use a given Linux or Multiboot kernel without installing it in the disk image. It can be useful for easier testing of various kernels.

‘-kernel bzImage’

    Use bzImage as kernel image. The kernel can be either a Linux kernel or in multiboot format.
‘-append cmdline’

    Use cmdline as kernel command line
‘-initrd file’

    Use file as initial ram disk.
‘-initrd "file1 arg=foo,file2"’

    This syntax is only available with multiboot.

    Use file1 and file2 as modules and pass arg=foo as parameter to the first module.

Debug/Expert options:

‘-serial dev’

    Redirect the virtual serial port to host character device dev. The default device is vc in graphical mode and stdio in non graphical mode.

    This option can be used several times to simulate up to 4 serial ports.

    Use -serial none to disable all serial ports.

    Available character devices are:

    ‘vc[:WxH]’

        Virtual console. Optionally, a width and height can be given in pixel with
            

        vc:800x600

        It is also possible to specify width or height in characters:
            

        vc:80Cx24C

    ‘pty’

        [Linux only] Pseudo TTY (a new PTY is automatically allocated)
    ‘none’

        No device is allocated.
    ‘null’

        void device
    ‘/dev/XXX’

        [Linux only] Use host tty, e.g. ‘/dev/ttyS0’. The host serial port parameters are set according to the emulated ones.
    ‘/dev/parportN’

        [Linux only, parallel port only] Use host parallel port N. Currently SPP and EPP parallel port features can be used.
    ‘file:filename’

        Write output to filename. No character can be read.
    ‘stdio’

        [Unix only] standard input/output
    ‘pipe:filename’

        name pipe filename
    ‘COMn’

        [Windows only] Use host serial port n
    ‘udp:[remote_host]:remote_port[@[src_ip]:src_port]’

        This implements UDP Net Console. When remote_host or src_ip are not specified they default to 0.0.0.0. When not using a specified src_port a random port is automatically chosen.

        If you just want a simple readonly console you can use netcat or nc, by starting qemu with: -serial udp::4555 and nc as: 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 -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.

        Qemu Options:

            -serial udp::4555@:4556
        netcat options:

            -u -P 4555 -L 0.0.0.0:4556 -t -p 5555 -I -T
        telnet options:

            localhost 5555

    ‘tcp:[host]:port[,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 host at the port. If you use the server option QEMU will wait for a client socket application to connect to the port before continuing, unless the nowait option was specified. The nodelay option disables the Nagle buffering algorithm. If host is omitted, 0.0.0.0 is assumed. Only one TCP connection at a time is accepted. You can use telnet to connect to the corresponding character device.

        Example to send tcp console to 192.168.0.2 port 4444

            -serial tcp:192.168.0.2:4444
        Example to listen and wait on port 4444 for connection

            -serial tcp::4444,server
        Example to not wait and listen on ip 192.168.0.100 port 4444

            -serial tcp:192.168.0.100:4444,server,nowait

    ‘telnet:host:port[,server][,nowait][,nodelay]’

        The telnet protocol is used instead of raw tcp sockets. The options work the same as if you had specified -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.
    ‘unix:path[,server][,nowait]’

        A unix domain socket is used instead of a tcp socket. The option works the same as if you had specified -serial tcp except the unix domain socket path is used for connections.
    ‘mon:dev_string’

        This is a special option to allow the monitor to be multiplexed onto another serial port. The monitor is accessed with key sequence of <Control-a> and then pressing <c>. See monitor access Keys in the -nographic section for more keys. dev_string should be any one of the serial devices specified above. An example to multiplex the monitor onto a telnet server listening on port 4444 would be:

        -serial mon:telnet::4444,server,nowait

    ‘braille’

        Braille device. This will use BrlAPI to display the braille output on a real or fake device.
    ‘msmouse’

        Three button serial mouse. Configure the guest to use Microsoft protocol.

‘-parallel dev’

    Redirect the virtual parallel port to host device dev (same devices as the serial port). On Linux hosts, ‘/dev/parportN’ can be used to use hardware devices connected on the corresponding host parallel port.

    This option can be used several times to simulate up to 3 parallel ports.

    Use -parallel none to disable all parallel ports.
‘-monitor dev’

    Redirect the monitor to host device dev (same devices as the serial port). The default device is vc in graphical mode and stdio in non graphical mode.
‘-mon chardev=[name][,mode=readline|control][,default]’

    Setup monitor on chardev name.
‘-pidfile file’

    Store the QEMU process PID in file. It is useful if you launch QEMU from a script.
‘-singlestep’

    Run the emulation in single step mode.
‘-S’

    Do not start CPU at startup (you must type ’c’ in the monitor).
‘-gdb dev’

    Wait for gdb connection on device dev (see section GDB usage). Typical connections will likely be TCP-based, but also UDP, pseudo TTY, or even stdio are reasonable use case. The latter is allowing to start qemu from within gdb and establish the connection via a pipe:
        

    (gdb) target remote | exec qemu -gdb stdio ...

‘-s’

    Shorthand for -gdb tcp::1234, i.e. open a gdbserver on TCP port 1234 (see section GDB usage).
‘-d’

    Output log in /tmp/qemu.log
‘-hdachs c,h,s,[,t]’

    Force hard disk 0 physical geometry (1 <= c <= 16383, 1 <= h <= 16, 1 <= s <= 63) and optionally force the BIOS translation mode (t=none, lba or auto). Usually QEMU can guess all those parameters. This option is useful for old MS-DOS disk images.
‘-L path’

    Set the directory for the BIOS, VGA BIOS and keymaps.
‘-bios file’

    Set the filename for the BIOS.
‘-enable-kvm’

    Enable KVM full virtualization support. This option is only available if KVM support is enabled when compiling.
‘-no-reboot’

    Exit instead of rebooting.
‘-no-shutdown’

    Don’t exit QEMU on guest shutdown, but instead only stop the emulation. This allows for instance switching to monitor to commit changes to the disk image.
‘-loadvm file’

    Start right away with a saved state (loadvm in monitor)
‘-daemonize’

    Daemonize the QEMU process after initialization. QEMU will not detach from standard IO until it is ready to receive connections on any of its devices. This option is a useful way for external programs to launch QEMU without having to cope with initialization race conditions.
‘-option-rom file’

    Load the contents of file as an option ROM. This option is useful to load things like EtherBoot.
‘-clock method’

    Force the use of the given methods for timer alarm. To see what timers are available use -clock ?.
‘-rtc [base=utc|localtime|date][,clock=host|vm][,driftfix=none|slew]’

    Specify ‘base’ as utc or localtime to let the RTC start at the current UTC or local time, respectively. localtime is required for correct date in MS-DOS or Windows. To start at a specific point in time, provide date in the format 2006-06-17T16:01:21 or 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 ‘clock’ to vm instead.

    Enable ‘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.
‘-icount [N|auto]’

    Enable virtual instruction counter. The virtual cpu will execute one instruction every 2^N ns of virtual time. If auto is specified then the virtual cpu speed will be automatically adjusted to keep virtual time within a few seconds of real time.

    Note that while this option can give deterministic behavior, it does not provide cycle accurate emulation. Modern CPUs contain superscalar out of order cores with complex cache hierarchies. The number of instructions executed often has little or no correlation with actual performance.
‘-watchdog 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 model is the model of hardware watchdog to emulate. Choices for model are: ib700 (iBASE 700) which is a very simple ISA watchdog with a single timer, or 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 -watchdog ? to list available hardware models. Only one watchdog can be enabled for a guest.
‘-watchdog-action action’

    The action controls what QEMU will do when the watchdog timer expires. The default is reset (forcefully reset the guest). Other possible actions are: shutdown (attempt to gracefully shutdown the guest), poweroff (forcefully poweroff the guest), pause (pause the guest), debug (print a debug message and continue), or none (do nothing).

    Note that the 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 -watchdog-action shutdown is not recommended for production use.

    Examples:

    -watchdog i6300esb -watchdog-action pause
    -watchdog ib700

‘-echr numeric_ascii_value’

    Change the escape character used for switching to the monitor when using monitor and serial sharing. The default is 0x01 when using the -nographic option. 0x01 is equal to pressing Control-a. You can select a different character from the ascii control keys where 1 through 26 map to Control-a through Control-z. For instance you could use the either of the following to change the escape character to Control-t.

    -echr 0x14
    -echr 20

‘-virtioconsole c’

    Set virtio console.
‘-nodefaults’

    Don’t create default devices.
‘-chroot dir’

    Immediately before starting guest execution, chroot to the specified directory. Especially useful in combination with -runas.
‘-runas user’

    Immediately before starting guest execution, drop root privileges, switching to the specified user.
‘-readconfig file’

    Read device configuration from file.
‘-writeconfig file’

    Write device configuration to file.

‘system_powerdown’

    Power down the system (if supported).
‘sum addr size’

    Compute the checksum of a memory region.
‘usb_add devname’

    Add the USB device devname. For details of available devices see Connecting USB devices
‘usb_del devname’

    Remove the USB device devname from the QEMU virtual USB hub. devname has the syntax bus.addr. Use the monitor command info usb to see the devices you can remove.

‘acl_show aclname’

    List all the matching rules in the access control list, and the default policy. There are currently two named access control lists, vnc.x509dname and vnc.username matching on the x509 client certificate distinguished name, and SASL username respectively.
‘acl_policy aclname allow|deny’

    Set the default access control list policy, used in the event that none of the explicit rules match. The default policy at startup is always deny.
‘acl_allow aclname match allow|deny [index]’

    Add a match rule to the access control list, allowing or denying access. The match will normally be an exact username or x509 distinguished name, but can optionally include wildcard globs. eg *@EXAMPLE.COM to allow all users in the EXAMPLE.COM kerberos realm. The match will normally be appended to the end of the ACL, but can be inserted earlier in the list if the optional index parameter is supplied.
‘acl_remove aclname match’

    Remove the specified match rule from the access control list.
‘acl_remove aclname match’

    Remove all matches from the access control list, and set the default policy back to deny.
‘mce cpu bank status mcgstatus addr misc’

    Inject an MCE on the given CPU (x86 only).
‘getfd fdname’
