A very rough survey: - The main() function is in "vl.c" - The target CPU emulation code is in the "target-xxx" directories - The host backends for the CPU emulation is in the "tcg" directory (TCG means Tiny Code Generator) - Other hardware emulation can be found in the "hw" directory - Host networking code is in the "net" folder - Guest firmware (BIOS) code can be found in the "pc-bios" folder That's at least the folders I have been in touch with since I started working on QEMU. I hope that helps at least a little bit. Thomas
