docs/system: convert Texinfo documentation to rST
Apart from targets.rst, which was written by hand, this is an automated conversion obtained with the following command: makeinfo --force -o - --docbook \ -D 'qemu_system_x86 QEMU_SYSTEM_X86_MACRO' \ -D 'qemu_system QEMU_SYSTEM_MACRO' \ $texi | pandoc -f docbook -t rst+smart | perl -e ' $/=undef; $_ = <>; s/^- − /- /gm; s/QEMU_SYSTEM_MACRO/|qemu_system|/g; s/QEMU_SYSTEM_X86_MACRO/|qemu_system_x86|/g; s/(?=::\n\n +\|qemu)/.. parsed-literal/g; s/:\n\n::$/::/gm; print' > $rst In addition, the following changes were made manually: - target-i386.rst and target-mips.rst: replace CPU model documentation with an include directive - monitor.rst: replace the command section with a comment - images.rst: add toctree - target-arm.rst: Replace use of :math: (which Sphinx complains about) with :sup:, and hide it behind |I2C| and |I2C| substitutions. Content that is not @included remains exclusive to qemu-doc.texi.

+x86 (PC) System emulator
+------------------------

+
+Peripherals
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The QEMU PC System emulator simulates the following peripherals:
+
+- i440FX host PCI bridge and PIIX3 PCI to ISA bridge
+
+- Cirrus CLGD 5446 PCI VGA card or dummy VGA card with Bochs VESA
+ extensions (hardware level, including all non standard modes).
+
+- PS/2 mouse and keyboard
+
+- 2 PCI IDE interfaces with hard disk and CD-ROM support
+
+- Floppy disk
+
+- PCI and ISA network adapters
+
+- Serial ports
+
+- IPMI BMC, either and internal or external one
+
+- Creative SoundBlaster 16 sound card
+
+- ENSONIQ AudioPCI ES1370 sound card
+
+- Intel 82801AA AC97 Audio compatible sound card
+
+- Intel HD Audio Controller and HDA codec
+
+- Adlib (OPL2) - Yamaha YM3812 compatible chip
+
+- Gravis Ultrasound GF1 sound card
+
+- CS4231A compatible sound card
+
+- PCI UHCI, OHCI, EHCI or XHCI USB controller and a virtual USB-1.1
+ hub.
+
+SMP is supported with up to 255 CPUs.
+
+QEMU uses the PC BIOS from the Seabios project and the Plex86/Bochs LGPL
+VGA BIOS.
+
+QEMU uses YM3812 emulation by Tatsuyuki Satoh.
+
+QEMU uses GUS emulation (GUSEMU32 http://www.deinmeister.de/gusemu/) by
+Tibor \"TS\" Schütz.
+
+Note that, by default, GUS shares IRQ(7) with parallel ports and so QEMU
+must be told to not have parallel ports to have working GUS.
+
+.. parsed-literal::
+
+ |qemu_system_x86| dos.img -soundhw gus -parallel none
+
+Alternatively:
+
+.. parsed-literal::
+
+ |qemu_system_x86| dos.img -device gus,irq=5
+
+Or some other unclaimed IRQ.
+
+CS4231A is the chip used in Windows Sound System and GUSMAX products

+
+OS requirements
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+On x86_64 hosts, the default set of CPU features enabled by the KVM
+accelerator require the host to be running Linux v4.5 or newer. Red Hat
+Enterprise Linux 7 is also supported, since the required
+functionality was backported.
