Explore the potential of QEMU's TCG emulation for microarchitecture research in this 33-minute KVM Forum talk. Dive into how TCG can be used to create new processor designs, going beyond its traditional roles in cross-development and retro gaming. Learn about the advantages of using TCG over conventional simulators and interpreters in processor microarchitecture design exploration. Discover a practical case study of employing TCG for RISC-V emulation and its integration with a simulator through a custom TCG plugin. Gain insights into the development of a new TCG plugin feature for reading registers, crucial for microarchitecture research. Consider the future possibilities of extending QEMU to further empower microarchitecture research, as presented by Akihiko Odaki, a Ph.D. candidate specializing in processor design optimization.
