-@section Features
-
-QEMU user space emulation has the following notable features:
-
-@table @strong
-@item System call translation:
-QEMU includes a generic system call translator.  This means that
-the parameters of the system calls can be converted to fix
-endianness and 32/64-bit mismatches between hosts and targets.
-IOCTLs can be converted too.
-
-@item POSIX signal handling:
-QEMU can redirect to the running program all signals coming from
-the host (such as @code{SIGALRM}), as well as synthesize signals from
-virtual CPU exceptions (for example @code{SIGFPE} when the program
-executes a division by zero).
-
-QEMU relies on the host kernel to emulate most signal system
-calls, for example to emulate the signal mask.  On Linux, QEMU
-supports both normal and real-time signals.
-
-@item Threading:
-On Linux, QEMU can emulate the @code{clone} syscall and create a real
-host thread (with a separate virtual CPU) for each emulated thread.
-Note that not all targets currently emulate atomic operations correctly.
-x86 and ARM use a global lock in order to preserve their semantics.
-@end table
-
-QEMU was conceived so that ultimately it can emulate itself. Although
-it is not very useful, it is an important test to show the power of the
-emulator.

-
-@node Quick Start
-@subsection Quick Start
-
-In order to launch a Linux process, QEMU needs the process executable
-itself and all the target (x86) dynamic libraries used by it.
-
-@itemize
-
-@item On x86, you can just try to launch any process by using the native
-libraries:
-
-@example
-qemu-i386 -L / /bin/ls
-@end example
-
-@code{-L /} tells that the x86 dynamic linker must be searched with a
-@file{/} prefix.
-
-@item Since QEMU is also a linux process, you can launch QEMU with
-QEMU (NOTE: you can only do that if you compiled QEMU from the sources):
-
-@example
-qemu-i386 -L / qemu-i386 -L / /bin/ls
-@end example
-
-@item On non x86 CPUs, you need first to download at least an x86 glibc
-(@file{qemu-runtime-i386-XXX-.tar.gz} on the QEMU web page). Ensure that
-@code{LD_LIBRARY_PATH} is not set:
-
-@example
-unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
-@end example
-
-Then you can launch the precompiled @file{ls} x86 executable:
-
-@example
-qemu-i386 tests/i386/ls
-@end example
-You can look at @file{scripts/qemu-binfmt-conf.sh} so that
-QEMU is automatically launched by the Linux kernel when you try to
-launch x86 executables. It requires the @code{binfmt_misc} module in the
-Linux kernel.
-
-@item The x86 version of QEMU is also included. You can try weird things such as:
-@example
-qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/qemu-i386 \
-          /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/ls-i386
-@end example
-
-@end itemize
-
-@node Wine launch
-@subsection Wine launch
-
-@itemize
-
-@item Ensure that you have a working QEMU with the x86 glibc
-distribution (see previous section). In order to verify it, you must be
-able to do:
-
-@example
-qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/ls-i386
-@end example
-
-@item Download the binary x86 Wine install
-(@file{qemu-XXX-i386-wine.tar.gz} on the QEMU web page).
-
-@item Configure Wine on your account. Look at the provided script
-@file{/usr/local/qemu-i386/@/bin/wine-conf.sh}. Your previous
-@code{$@{HOME@}/.wine} directory is saved to @code{$@{HOME@}/.wine.org}.
-
-@item Then you can try the example @file{putty.exe}:
-
-@example
-qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/wine/bin/wine \
-          /usr/local/qemu-i386/wine/c/Program\ Files/putty.exe

-@end example
-
-@table @option
-@item -h
-Print the help
-@item -L path
-Set the x86 elf interpreter prefix (default=/usr/local/qemu-i386)
-@item -s size
-Set the x86 stack size in bytes (default=524288)
-@item -cpu model
-Select CPU model (-cpu help for list and additional feature selection)
-@item -E @var{var}=@var{value}
-Set environment @var{var} to @var{value}.
-@item -U @var{var}
-Remove @var{var} from the environment.
-@item -B offset
-Offset guest address by the specified number of bytes.  This is useful when
-the address region required by guest applications is reserved on the host.
-This option is currently only supported on some hosts.
-@item -R size
-Pre-allocate a guest virtual address space of the given size (in bytes).
-"G", "M", and "k" suffixes may be used when specifying the size.
-@end table
-
-Debug options:
-
-@table @option
-@item -d item1,...
-Activate logging of the specified items (use '-d help' for a list of log items)
-@item -p pagesize
-Act as if the host page size was 'pagesize' bytes
-@item -g port
-Wait gdb connection to port
-@item -singlestep
-Run the emulation in single step mode.
-@end table
-
-Environment variables:
-
-@table @env
-@item QEMU_STRACE
-Print system calls and arguments similar to the 'strace' program
-(NOTE: the actual 'strace' program will not work because the user
-space emulator hasn't implemented ptrace).  At the moment this is
-incomplete.  All system calls that don't have a specific argument
-format are printed with information for six arguments.  Many
-flag-style arguments don't have decoders and will show up as numbers.
