122 |
@item -drive @var{option}[,@var{option}[,@var{option}[,...]]] |
123 |
@findex -drive |
124 |
|
125 |
Define a new drive. Valid options are: |
126 |
|
127 |
@table @option |
128 |
@item file=@var{file} |
129 |
This option defines which disk image (@pxref{disk_images}) to use with |
130 |
this drive. If the filename contains comma, you must double it |
131 |
(for instance, "file=my,,file" to use file "my,file"). |
132 |
@item if=@var{interface} |
133 |
This option defines on which type on interface the drive is connected. |
134 |
Available types are: ide, scsi, sd, mtd, floppy, pflash, virtio. |
135 |
@item bus=@var{bus},unit=@var{unit} |
136 |
These options define where is connected the drive by defining the bus number and |
137 |
the unit id. |
138 |
@item index=@var{index} |
139 |
This option defines where is connected the drive by using an index in the list |
140 |
of available connectors of a given interface type. |
141 |
@item media=@var{media} |
142 |
This option defines the type of the media: disk or cdrom. |
143 |
@item cyls=@var{c},heads=@var{h},secs=@var{s}[,trans=@var{t}] |
144 |
These options have the same definition as they have in @option{-hdachs}. |
145 |
@item snapshot=@var{snapshot} |
146 |
@var{snapshot} is "on" or "off" and allows to enable snapshot for given drive (see @option{-snapshot}). |
147 |
@item cache=@var{cache} |
148 |
@var{cache} is "none", "writeback", or "writethrough" and controls how the host cache is used to access block data. |
149 |
@item aio=@var{aio} |
150 |
@var{aio} is "threads", or "native" and selects between pthread based disk I/O and native Linux AIO. |
151 |
@item format=@var{format} |
152 |
Specify which disk @var{format} will be used rather than detecting |
153 |
the format. Can be used to specifiy format=raw to avoid interpreting |
154 |
an untrusted format header. |
155 |
@item serial=@var{serial} |
156 |
This option specifies the serial number to assign to the device. |
157 |
@item addr=@var{addr} |
158 |
Specify the controller's PCI address (if=virtio only). |
159 |
@end table |
160 |
|
161 |
By default, writethrough caching is used for all block device. This means that |
162 |
the host page cache will be used to read and write data but write notification |
163 |
will be sent to the guest only when the data has been reported as written by |
164 |
the storage subsystem. |
165 |
|
166 |
Writeback caching will report data writes as completed as soon as the data is |
167 |
present in the host page cache. This is safe as long as you trust your host. |
168 |
If your host crashes or loses power, then the guest may experience data |
169 |
corruption. When using the @option{-snapshot} option, writeback caching is |
170 |
used by default. |
171 |
|
172 |
The host page cache can be avoided entirely with @option{cache=none}. This will |
173 |
attempt to do disk IO directly to the guests memory. QEMU may still perform |
174 |
an internal copy of the data. |
175 |
|
176 |
Some block drivers perform badly with @option{cache=writethrough}, most notably, |
177 |
qcow2. If performance is more important than correctness, |
178 |
@option{cache=writeback} should be used with qcow2. |
179 |
|
180 |
Instead of @option{-cdrom} you can use: |
181 |
@example |
182 |
qemu -drive file=file,index=2,media=cdrom |
183 |
@end example |
184 |
|
185 |
Instead of @option{-hda}, @option{-hdb}, @option{-hdc}, @option{-hdd}, you can |
186 |
use: |
187 |
@example |
188 |
qemu -drive file=file,index=0,media=disk |
189 |
qemu -drive file=file,index=1,media=disk |
190 |
qemu -drive file=file,index=2,media=disk |
191 |
qemu -drive file=file,index=3,media=disk |
192 |
@end example |
193 |
|
194 |
You can connect a CDROM to the slave of ide0: |
195 |
@example |
196 |
qemu -drive file=file,if=ide,index=1,media=cdrom |
197 |
@end example |
198 |
|
199 |
If you don't specify the "file=" argument, you define an empty drive: |
200 |
@example |
201 |
qemu -drive if=ide,index=1,media=cdrom |
202 |
@end example |
203 |
|
204 |
You can connect a SCSI disk with unit ID 6 on the bus #0: |
205 |
@example |
206 |
qemu -drive file=file,if=scsi,bus=0,unit=6 |
207 |
@end example |
208 |
|
209 |
Instead of @option{-fda}, @option{-fdb}, you can use: |
210 |
@example |
211 |
qemu -drive file=file,index=0,if=floppy |
212 |
qemu -drive file=file,index=1,if=floppy |
213 |
@end example |
214 |
|
215 |
By default, @var{interface} is "ide" and @var{index} is automatically |
216 |
incremented: |
217 |
@example |
218 |
qemu -drive file=a -drive file=b" |
219 |
@end example |
220 |
is interpreted like: |
221 |
@example |
222 |
qemu -hda a -hdb b |
223 |
@end example |

Normally, QEMU uses SDL to display the VGA output. With this option, |
641 |
you can have QEMU listen on VNC display @var{display} and redirect the VGA |
642 |
display over the VNC session. It is very useful to enable the usb |
643 |
tablet device when using this option (option @option{-usbdevice |
644 |
tablet}). When using the VNC display, you must use the @option{-k} |
645 |

Connect to a listening VNC client via a ``reverse'' connection. The |
676 |
client is specified by the @var{display}. For reverse network |
677 |
connections (@var{host}:@var{d},@code{reverse}), the @var{d} argument |
678 |
is a TCP port number, not a display number. |
679 |

Require that password based authentication is used for client connections. |
683 |

685 |
|
686 |
@item tls |
687 |
|
688 |
Require that client use TLS when communicating with the VNC server. This |
689 |
uses anonymous TLS credentials so is susceptible to a man-in-the-middle |
690 |
attack. It is recommended that this option be combined with either the |
691 |
@option{x509} or @option{x509verify} options. |
692 |
|
693 |
@item x509=@var{/path/to/certificate/dir} |
694 |
|
695 |
Valid if @option{tls} is specified. Require that x509 credentials are used |
696 |
for negotiating the TLS session. The server will send its x509 certificate |
697 |
to the client. It is recommended that a password be set on the VNC server |
698 |
to provide authentication of the client when this is used. The path following |
699 |
this option specifies where the x509 certificates are to be loaded from. |
700 |
See the @ref{vnc_security} section for details on generating certificates. |
701 |
|
702 |
@item x509verify=@var{/path/to/certificate/dir} |
703 |
|
704 |
Valid if @option{tls} is specified. Require that x509 credentials are used |
705 |
for negotiating the TLS session. The server will send its x509 certificate |
706 |
to the client, and request that the client send its own x509 certificate. |
707 |
The server will validate the client's certificate against the CA certificate, |
708 |
and reject clients when validation fails. If the certificate authority is |
709 |
trusted, this is a sufficient authentication mechanism. You may still wish |
710 |
to set a password on the VNC server as a second authentication layer. The |
711 |
path following this option specifies where the x509 certificates are to |
712 |
be loaded from. See the @ref{vnc_security} section for details on generating |
713 |
certificates. |
714 |
|
715 |
@item sasl |
716 |
|
717 |
Require that the client use SASL to authenticate with the VNC server. |
718 |
The exact choice of authentication method used is controlled from the |
719 |
system / user's SASL configuration file for the 'qemu' service. This |
720 |
is typically found in /etc/sasl2/qemu.conf. If running QEMU as an |
721 |
unprivileged user, an environment variable SASL_CONF_PATH can be used |
722 |
to make it search alternate locations for the service config. |
723 |
While some SASL auth methods can also provide data encryption (eg GSSAPI), |
724 |
it is recommended that SASL always be combined with the 'tls' and |
725 |
'x509' settings to enable use of SSL and server certificates. This |
726 |
ensures a data encryption preventing compromise of authentication |
727 |
credentials. See the @ref{vnc_security} section for details on using |
728 |
SASL authentication. |
729 |
|
730 |
@item acl |
731 |
|
732 |
Turn on access control lists for checking of the x509 client certificate |
733 |
and SASL party. For x509 certs, the ACL check is made against the |
734 |
certificate's distinguished name. This is something that looks like |
735 |
@code{C=GB,O=ACME,L=Boston,CN=bob}. For SASL party, the ACL check is |
736 |
made against the username, which depending on the SASL plugin, may |
737 |
include a realm component, eg @code{bob} or @code{bob@@EXAMPLE.COM}. |
738 |
When the @option{acl} flag is set, the initial access list will be |
739 |
empty, with a @code{deny} policy. Thus no one will be allowed to |
740 |
use the VNC server until the ACLs have been loaded. This can be |
741 |
achieved using the @code{acl} monitor command. |

936 |
@findex -net |
937 |
Create a new Network Interface Card and connect it to VLAN @var{n} (@var{n} |
938 |
= 0 is the default). The NIC is an e1000 by default on the PC |
939 |
target. Optionally, the MAC address can be changed to @var{mac}, the |
940 |
device address set to @var{addr} (PCI cards only), |
941 |
and a @var{name} can be assigned for use in monitor commands. |
942 |
Optionally, for PCI cards, you can specify the number @var{v} of MSI-X vectors |
943 |
that the card should have; this option currently only affects virtio cards; set |
944 |
@var{v} = 0 to disable MSI-X. If no @option{-net} option is specified, a single |
945 |
NIC is created. Qemu can emulate several different models of network card. |
946 |
Valid values for @var{type} are |
947 |
@code{virtio}, @code{i82551}, @code{i82557b}, @code{i82559er}, |
948 |
@code{ne2k_pci}, @code{ne2k_isa}, @code{pcnet}, @code{rtl8139}, |
949 |
@code{e1000}, @code{smc91c111}, @code{lance} and @code{mcf_fec}. |
950 |
Not all devices are supported on all targets. Use -net nic,model=? |
951 |
for a list of available devices for your target. |
952 |
|
953 |
@item -net user[,@var{option}][,@var{option}][,...] |
954 |
Use the user mode network stack which requires no administrator |
955 |
privilege to run. Valid options are: |
956 |
|
957 |
@table @option |
958 |
@item vlan=@var{n} |
959 |
Connect user mode stack to VLAN @var{n} (@var{n} = 0 is the default). |
960 |
|
961 |
@item name=@var{name} |
962 |
Assign symbolic name for use in monitor commands. |
963 |
|
964 |
@item net=@var{addr}[/@var{mask}] |
965 |
Set IP network address the guest will see. Optionally specify the netmask, |
966 |
either in the form a.b.c.d or as number of valid top-most bits. Default is |
967 |
10.0.2.0/8. |
968 |
|
969 |
@item host=@var{addr} |
970 |
Specify the guest-visible address of the host. Default is the 2nd IP in the |
971 |
guest network, i.e. x.x.x.2. |
972 |
|
973 |
@item restrict=y|yes|n|no |
974 |
If this options is enabled, the guest will be isolated, i.e. it will not be |
975 |
able to contact the host and no guest IP packets will be routed over the host |
976 |
to the outside. This option does not affect explicitly set forwarding rule. |
977 |
|
978 |
@item hostname=@var{name} |
979 |
Specifies the client hostname reported by the builtin DHCP server. |
980 |
|
981 |
@item dhcpstart=@var{addr} |
982 |
Specify the first of the 16 IPs the built-in DHCP server can assign. Default |
983 |
is the 16th to 31st IP in the guest network, i.e. x.x.x.16 to x.x.x.31. |
984 |
|
985 |
@item dns=@var{addr} |
986 |
Specify the guest-visible address of the virtual nameserver. The address must |
987 |
be different from the host address. Default is the 3rd IP in the guest network, |
988 |
i.e. x.x.x.3. |
989 |
|
990 |
@item tftp=@var{dir} |
991 |
When using the user mode network stack, activate a built-in TFTP |
992 |
server. The files in @var{dir} will be exposed as the root of a TFTP server. |
993 |
The TFTP client on the guest must be configured in binary mode (use the command |
994 |
@code{bin} of the Unix TFTP client). |
995 |
|
996 |
@item bootfile=@var{file} |
997 |
When using the user mode network stack, broadcast @var{file} as the BOOTP |
998 |
filename. In conjunction with @option{tftp}, this can be used to network boot |
999 |
a guest from a local directory. |
1000 |
|
1001 |
Example (using pxelinux): |
1002 |
@example |
1003 |
qemu -hda linux.img -boot n -net user,tftp=/path/to/tftp/files,bootfile=/pxelinux.0 |
1004 |
@end example |
1005 |
|
1006 |
@item smb=@var{dir}[,smbserver=@var{addr}] |
1007 |
When using the user mode network stack, activate a built-in SMB |
1008 |
server so that Windows OSes can access to the host files in @file{@var{dir}} |
1009 |
transparently. The IP address of the SMB server can be set to @var{addr}. By |
1010 |
default the 4th IP in the guest network is used, i.e. x.x.x.4. |
1011 |
|
1012 |
In the guest Windows OS, the line: |
1013 |
@example |
1014 |
10.0.2.4 smbserver |
1015 |
@end example |
1016 |
must be added in the file @file{C:\WINDOWS\LMHOSTS} (for windows 9x/Me) |
1017 |
or @file{C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\LMHOSTS} (Windows NT/2000). |
1018 |
|
1019 |
Then @file{@var{dir}} can be accessed in @file{\\smbserver\qemu}. |
1020 |
|
1021 |
Note that a SAMBA server must be installed on the host OS in |
1022 |
@file{/usr/sbin/smbd}. QEMU was tested successfully with smbd versions from |
1023 |
Red Hat 9, Fedora Core 3 and OpenSUSE 11.x. |
1024 |
|
1025 |
@item hostfwd=[tcp|udp]:[@var{hostaddr}]:@var{hostport}-[@var{guestaddr}]:@var{guestport} |
1026 |
Redirect incoming TCP or UDP connections to the host port @var{hostport} to |
1027 |
the guest IP address @var{guestaddr} on guest port @var{guestport}. If |
1028 |
@var{guestaddr} is not specified, its value is x.x.x.15 (default first address |
1029 |
given by the built-in DHCP server). By specifying @var{hostaddr}, the rule can |
1030 |
be bound to a specific host interface. If no connection type is set, TCP is |
1031 |
used. This option can be given multiple times. |
1032 |
|
1033 |
For example, to redirect host X11 connection from screen 1 to guest |
1034 |
screen 0, use the following: |
1035 |
|
1036 |
@example |
1037 |
# on the host |
1038 |
qemu -net user,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:6001-:6000 [...] |
1039 |
# this host xterm should open in the guest X11 server |
1040 |
xterm -display :1 |
1041 |
@end example |
1042 |
|
1043 |
To redirect telnet connections from host port 5555 to telnet port on |
1044 |
the guest, use the following: |
1045 |
|
1046 |
@example |
1047 |
# on the host |
1048 |
qemu -net user,hostfwd=tcp::5555-:23 [...] |
1049 |
telnet localhost 5555 |
1050 |
@end example |
1051 |
|
1052 |
Then when you use on the host @code{telnet localhost 5555}, you |
1053 |
connect to the guest telnet server. |
1054 |
|
1055 |
@item guestfwd=[tcp]:@var{server}:@var{port}-@var{dev} |
1056 |
Forward guest TCP connections to the IP address @var{server} on port @var{port} |
1057 |
to the character device @var{dev}. This option can be given multiple times. |
1058 |
|
1059 |
@end table |
1060 |
|
1061 |
Note: Legacy stand-alone options -tftp, -bootp, -smb and -redir are still |
1062 |
processed and applied to -net user. Mixing them with the new configuration |
1063 |
syntax gives undefined results. Their use for new applications is discouraged |
1064 |
as they will be removed from future versions. |
1065 |
|
1066 |
@item -net tap[,vlan=@var{n}][,name=@var{name}][,fd=@var{h}][,ifname=@var{name}][,script=@var{file}][,downscript=@var{dfile}] |
1067 |
Connect the host TAP network interface @var{name} to VLAN @var{n}, use |
1068 |
the network script @var{file} to configure it and the network script |
1069 |
@var{dfile} to deconfigure it. If @var{name} is not provided, the OS |
1070 |
automatically provides one. @option{fd}=@var{h} can be used to specify |
1071 |
the handle of an already opened host TAP interface. The default network |
1072 |
configure script is @file{/etc/qemu-ifup} and the default network |
1073 |
deconfigure script is @file{/etc/qemu-ifdown}. Use @option{script=no} |
1074 |
or @option{downscript=no} to disable script execution. Example: |
1075 |
|
1076 |
@example |
1077 |
qemu linux.img -net nic -net tap |
1078 |
@end example |
1079 |
|
1080 |
More complicated example (two NICs, each one connected to a TAP device) |
1081 |
@example |
1082 |
qemu linux.img -net nic,vlan=0 -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0 \ |
1083 |
-net nic,vlan=1 -net tap,vlan=1,ifname=tap1 |
1084 |
@end example |
1085 |

@item -net socket[,vlan=@var{n}][,name=@var{name}][,fd=@var{h}][,listen=[@var{host}]:@var{port}][,connect=@var{host}:@var{port}] |
1087 |
|
1088 |
Connect the VLAN @var{n} to a remote VLAN in another QEMU virtual |
1089 |
machine using a TCP socket connection. If @option{listen} is |
1090 |
specified, QEMU waits for incoming connections on @var{port} |
1091 |
(@var{host} is optional). @option{connect} is used to connect to |
1092 |
another QEMU instance using the @option{listen} option. @option{fd}=@var{h} |
1093 |
specifies an already opened TCP socket. |
1094 |
|
1095 |
Example: |
1096 |
@example |
1097 |
# launch a first QEMU instance |
1098 |
qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \ |
1099 |
-net socket,listen=:1234 |
1100 |
# connect the VLAN 0 of this instance to the VLAN 0 |
1101 |
# of the first instance |
1102 |
qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:57 \ |
1103 |
-net socket,connect=127.0.0.1:1234 |
1104 |
@end example |
1105 |
|
1106 |
@item -net socket[,vlan=@var{n}][,name=@var{name}][,fd=@var{h}][,mcast=@var{maddr}:@var{port}] |
1107 |
|
1108 |
Create a VLAN @var{n} shared with another QEMU virtual |
1109 |
machines using a UDP multicast socket, effectively making a bus for |
1110 |
every QEMU with same multicast address @var{maddr} and @var{port}. |
1111 |
NOTES: |
1112 |
@enumerate |
1113 |
@item |
1114 |
Several QEMU can be running on different hosts and share same bus (assuming |
1115 |
correct multicast setup for these hosts). |
1116 |
@item |
1117 |
mcast support is compatible with User Mode Linux (argument @option{eth@var{N}=mcast}), see |
1118 |
@url{http://user-mode-linux.sf.net}. |
1119 |
@item |
1120 |
Use @option{fd=h} to specify an already opened UDP multicast socket. |
1121 |
@end enumerate |
1122 |
|
1123 |
Example: |
1124 |
@example |
1125 |
# launch one QEMU instance |

1137 |
@example |
1138 |
# launch QEMU instance (note mcast address selected |
1139 |
# is UML's default) |
1140 |
qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \ |

@item -net vde[,vlan=@var{n}][,name=@var{name}][,sock=@var{socketpath}][,port=@var{n}][,group=@var{groupname}][,mode=@var{octalmode}] |
1147 |
Connect VLAN @var{n} to PORT @var{n} of a vde switch running on host and |
1148 |
listening for incoming connections on @var{socketpath}. Use GROUP @var{groupname} |
1149 |
and MODE @var{octalmode} to change default ownership and permissions for |
1150 |
communication port. This option is available only if QEMU has been compiled |
1151 |
with vde support enabled. |
1152 |
|
1153 |
Example: |
1154 |
@example |
1155 |
# launch vde switch |
1156 |
vde_switch -F -sock /tmp/myswitch |
1157 |
# launch QEMU instance |
1158 |
qemu linux.img -net nic -net vde,sock=/tmp/myswitch |
1159 |
@end example |
1160 |
|
1161 |
@item -net dump[,vlan=@var{n}][,file=@var{file}][,len=@var{len}] |
1162 |
Dump network traffic on VLAN @var{n} to file @var{file} (@file{qemu-vlan0.pcap} by default). |
1163 |
At most @var{len} bytes (64k by default) per packet are stored. The file format is |
1164 |
libpcap, so it can be analyzed with tools such as tcpdump or Wireshark. |
1165 |
|
1166 |
@item -net none |
1167 |
Indicate that no network devices should be configured. It is used to |
1168 |
override the default configuration (@option{-net nic -net user}) which |
1169 |
is activated if no @option{-net} options are provided. |

The general form of a character device option is: |
1211 |
@table @option |
1212 |
|
1213 |
@item -chardev @var{backend} ,id=@var{id} [,@var{options}] |
1214 |
@findex -chardev |
1215 |
Backend is one of: |
1216 |
@option{null}, |
1217 |
@option{socket}, |
1218 |
@option{udp}, |
1219 |
@option{msmouse}, |
1220 |
@option{vc}, |
1221 |
@option{file}, |
1222 |
@option{pipe}, |
1223 |
@option{console}, |
1224 |
@option{serial}, |
1225 |
@option{pty}, |
1226 |
@option{stdio}, |
1227 |
@option{braille}, |
1228 |
@option{tty}, |
1229 |
@option{parport}. |
1230 |
The specific backend will determine the applicable options. |
1231 |
|
1232 |
All devices must have an id, which can be any string up to 127 characters long. |
1233 |
It is used to uniquely identify this device in other command line directives. |
1234 |
|
1235 |
Options to each backend are described below. |
1236 |
|
1237 |
@item -chardev null ,id=@var{id} |
1238 |
A void device. This device will not emit any data, and will drop any data it |
1239 |
receives. The null backend does not take any options. |
1240 |
|
1241 |
@item -chardev socket ,id=@var{id} [@var{TCP options} or @var{unix options}] [,server] [,nowait] [,telnet] |
1242 |
|
1243 |
Create a two-way stream socket, which can be either a TCP or a unix socket. A |
1244 |
unix socket will be created if @option{path} is specified. Behaviour is |
1245 |
undefined if TCP options are specified for a unix socket. |
1246 |
|
1247 |
@option{server} specifies that the socket shall be a listening socket. |
1248 |
|
1249 |
@option{nowait} specifies that QEMU should not block waiting for a client to |
1250 |
connect to a listening socket. |
1251 |
|
1252 |
@option{telnet} specifies that traffic on the socket should interpret telnet |
1253 |
escape sequences. |
1254 |
|
1255 |
TCP and unix socket options are given below: |
1256 |
|
1257 |
@table @option |
1258 |
|
1259 |
@item TCP options: port=@var{host} [,host=@var{host}] [,to=@var{to}] [,ipv4] [,ipv6] [,nodelay] |
1260 |
|
1261 |
@option{host} for a listening socket specifies the local address to be bound. |
1262 |
For a connecting socket species the remote host to connect to. @option{host} is |
1263 |
optional for listening sockets. If not specified it defaults to @code{0.0.0.0}. |
1264 |
|
1265 |
@option{port} for a listening socket specifies the local port to be bound. For a |
1266 |
connecting socket specifies the port on the remote host to connect to. |
1267 |
@option{port} can be given as either a port number or a service name. |
1268 |
@option{port} is required. |
1269 |
|
1270 |
@option{to} is only relevant to listening sockets. If it is specified, and |
1271 |
@option{port} cannot be bound, QEMU will attempt to bind to subsequent ports up |
1272 |
to and including @option{to} until it succeeds. @option{to} must be specified |
1273 |
as a port number. |
1274 |
|
1275 |
@option{ipv4} and @option{ipv6} specify that either IPv4 or IPv6 must be used. |
1276 |
If neither is specified the socket may use either protocol. |
1277 |
|
1278 |
@option{nodelay} disables the Nagle algorithm. |
1279 |
|
1280 |
@item unix options: path=@var{path} |
1281 |
|
1282 |
@option{path} specifies the local path of the unix socket. @option{path} is |

|
1289 |
Sends all traffic from the guest to a remote host over UDP. |
1290 |

1292 |
defaults to @code{localhost}. |
1293 |
|
1294 |
@option{port} specifies the port on the remote host to connect to. @option{port} |
1295 |
is required. |
1296 |
|
1297 |
@option{localaddr} specifies the local address to bind to. If not specified it |
1298 |
defaults to @code{0.0.0.0}. |
1299 |
|
1300 |
@option{localport} specifies the local port to bind to. If not specified any |
1301 |
available local port will be used. |
1302 |
|
1303 |
@option{ipv4} and @option{ipv6} specify that either IPv4 or IPv6 must be used. |
1304 |
If neither is specified the device may use either protocol. |
1305 |
|
1306 |
@item -chardev msmouse ,id=@var{id} |
1307 |
|
1308 |
Forward QEMU's emulated msmouse events to the guest. @option{msmouse} does not |
1309 |
take any options. |
1310 |
|
1311 |

1323 |
|
1324 |
Log all traffic received from the guest to a file. |
1325 |
|
1326 |
@option{path} specifies the path of the file to be opened. This file will be |
1327 |
created if it does not already exist, and overwritten if it does. @option{path} |
1328 |
is required. |
1329 |
|
1330 |
@item -chardev pipe ,id=@var{id} ,path=@var{path} |
1331 |
|
1332 |
Create a two-way connection to the guest. The behaviour differs slightly between |
1333 |
Windows hosts and other hosts: |
1334 |
|
1335 |
On Windows, a single duplex pipe will be created at |
1336 |
@file{\\.pipe\@option{path}}. |
1337 |
|
1338 |
On other hosts, 2 pipes will be created called @file{@option{path}.in} and |
1339 |
@file{@option{path}.out}. Data written to @file{@option{path}.in} will be |
1340 |
received by the guest. Data written by the guest can be read from |
1341 |
@file{@option{path}.out}. QEMU will not create these fifos, and requires them to |
1342 |
be present. |
1343 |
|
1344 |
@option{path} forms part of the pipe path as described above. @option{path} is |
1345 |
required. |

1362 |
|
1363 |
@item -chardev pty ,id=@var{id} |
1364 |
|
1365 |
Create a new pseudo-terminal on the host and connect to it. @option{pty} does |
1366 |
not take any options. |
1367 |
|
1368 |
@option{pty} is not available on Windows hosts. |
1369 |
|
1370 |
@item -chardev stdio ,id=@var{id} |
1371 |

to the host bluetooth stack instead of to the emulated target. This |
1451 |
allows the host and target machines to participate in a common scatternet |

No device is allocated. |
1556 |
@item null |
1557 |
void device |
1558 |
@item /dev/XXX |
1559 |
[Linux only] Use host tty, e.g. @file{/dev/ttyS0}. The host serial port |
1560 |
parameters are set according to the emulated ones. |
1561 |
@item /dev/parport@var{N} |
1562 |
[Linux only, parallel port only] Use host parallel port |
1563 |
@var{N}. Currently SPP and EPP parallel port features can be used. |
1564 |
@item file:@var{filename} |
1565 |
Write output to @var{filename}. No character can be read. |
1566 |
@item stdio |
1567 |
[Unix only] standard input/output |
1568 |
@item pipe:@var{filename} |

[Windows only] Use host serial port @var{n} |
1572 |
@item udp:[@var{remote_host}]:@var{remote_port}[@@[@var{src_ip}]:@var{src_port}] |
1573 |
This implements UDP Net Console. |
1574 |
When @var{remote_host} or @var{src_ip} are not specified |
1575 |
they default to @code{0.0.0.0}. |
1576 |
When not using a specified @var{src_port} a random port is automatically chosen. |
1577 |
|
1578 |
If you just want a simple readonly console you can use @code{netcat} or |
1579 |
@code{nc}, by starting qemu with: @code{-serial udp::4555} and nc as: |
1580 |
@code{nc -u -l -p 4555}. Any time qemu writes something to that port it |
1581 |
will appear in the netconsole session. |
1582 |
|
1583 |
If you plan to send characters back via netconsole or you want to stop |
1584 |
and start qemu a lot of times, you should have qemu use the same |
1585 |
source port each time by using something like @code{-serial |
1586 |
udp::4555@@:4556} to qemu. Another approach is to use a patched |
1587 |
version of netcat which can listen to a TCP port and send and receive |
1588 |
characters via udp. If you have a patched version of netcat which |
1589 |
activates telnet remote echo and single char transfer, then you can |
1590 |
use the following options to step up a netcat redirector to allow |
1591 |
telnet on port 5555 to access the qemu port. |
1592 |
@table @code |
1593 |

1602 |
The TCP Net Console has two modes of operation. It can send the serial |
1603 |
I/O to a location or wait for a connection from a location. By default |
1604 |
the TCP Net Console is sent to @var{host} at the @var{port}. If you use |
1605 |
the @var{server} option QEMU will wait for a client socket application |
1606 |
to connect to the port before continuing, unless the @code{nowait} |
1607 |
option was specified. The @code{nodelay} option disables the Nagle buffering |

The telnet protocol is used instead of raw tcp sockets. The options |
1622 |
work the same as if you had specified @code{-serial tcp}. The |
1623 |
difference is that the port acts like a telnet server or client using |
1624 |
telnet option negotiation. This will also allow you to send the |
1625 |
MAGIC_SYSRQ sequence if you use a telnet that supports sending the break |
1626 |
sequence. Typically in unix telnet you do it with Control-] and then |
1627 |
type "send break" followed by pressing the enter key. |
1628 |

@item unix:@var{path}[,server][,nowait] |

A unix domain socket is used instead of a tcp socket. The option works the |

1632 |
@var{path} is used for connections. |

monitor and serial sharing. The default is @code{0x01} when using the |
2000 |
@code{-nographic} option. @code{0x01} is equal to pressing |
2001 |
@code{Control-a}. You can select a different character from the ascii |
2002 |
control keys where 1 through 26 map to Control-a through Control-z. For |
2003 |
instance you could use the either of the following to change the escape |
2004 |
character to Control-t. |
