Editing QEMU (section)

===x86===
QEMU can emulate the [[i386]] and [[X86-64|x86_64]] architectures. Besides the [[central processing unit]] (CPU) (which is also configurable and can emulate a number of Intel CPU models including as of 3 March 2018 [[Sandy Bridge (microarchitecture)|Sandy Bridge]],<ref name="AJMso3">{{cite web |title=[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 3/3] add SandyBridge CPU model |url=http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-02/msg03765.html |website=lists.gnu.org}}</ref> [[Ivy Bridge (microarchitecture)|Ivy Bridge]],<ref name="oINGA3">{{cite web |title=Qemu-Changelog-2.3 x86 |url=https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.3#x86 |website=wiki.qemu.org}}</ref> [[Haswell (microarchitecture)|Haswell]],<ref name="auto3">{{cite web |title=QEMU-changelog-2.6, x86 KVM |url=https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.6#KVM_2 |website=wiki.qemu.org}}</ref> [[Broadwell (microarchitecture)|Broadwell]]<ref name="dxjGF3">{{cite web |title=QEMU-changelog-2.1, x86 KVM |url=https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.1#x86 |website=wiki.qemu.org}}</ref><ref name="NsTB33">{{cite web |title=QEMU-changelog-2.5, x86 CPU Models and Features |url=https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.5#CPU_models_and_features |website=wiki.qemu.org}}</ref> and [[Skylake (microarchitecture)|Skylake]]<ref name="auto3" />), the following devices are emulated:

The [[BIOS]] implementation used by QEMU starting from version 0.12 is [[SeaBIOS]]. The VGA BIOS implementation of SeaBIOS is also used starting from version 2.0.0. The [[UEFI]] firmware for QEMU is OVMF.<ref name="urozO3">{{Cite web |title=UEFI/OVMF - Ubuntu Wiki |url=https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UEFI/OVMF}}</ref>
