Re: [Qemu-discuss] /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 Vs. /usr/bin/kvm emulator
Hello All, Can anyone please explain what is the difference between working with /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 and /usr/bin/kvm emulators? I have some doubts regarding what is the best emulator type I should supply in the virsh XML (under ) to get maximum performance of my VM. Thank you, Yan

Assuming you're using a modern Linux, they probably are the same thing. do "--version" outputs of both have any difference? Fam
Re: [Qemu-discuss] /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 Vs. /usr/bin/kvm emulator
/usr/bin/kvm is probably just a script executing /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 with kvm enabled: #!/bin/sh exec qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm "$@" The /usr/bin/kvm 'executable' is from the time qemu-kvm was a fork of qemu, see http://wiki.qemu.org/KVM . All KVM features are merged in the QEMU project. Met vriendelijke groet / Kind regards, Bram Klein Gunnewiek | Shock Media B.V.
