Émulation en folie : les derniers émulateurs à tester sur Mac et iOS

7.1.4

This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:

• GUI: Added latest NLS update for Turkish, Indonesian and Italian languages
• VMSVGA: Improved flickering, black screen and other screen update issues with recent Linux kernels (bug #21955)
• NAT: Fixed issue with restoring 7.0.X saved state

Known Issues

• Unable to install VMware Tools on macOS 15 Sequoia host operating system

  The Install VMware Tools button is grayed out on a device that uses macOS 15 Sequoia operating system.

  Workaround: Download VMware Tools from https://packages-prod.broadcom.com/tools/frozen/darwin/darwin.iso and execute the installation steps in https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article?legacyId=1014294.

• vctl pull command is failing on Sonoma 14.5 and later

  If you attempt to pull an image by using the vctl pull command, it fails with a "hdiutil: mount failed - Permission denied" error on macOS Sonoma 14.5 and later Host Operating Systems.

  Workaround: None

• The multi-monitor feature might not work correctly in specific topologies

  In specific situations, based on different hardware and topologies, the multi-monitor feature does not work as expected. You might see issues like reverting the topology to a single screen, or not cycling through monitors.

  Workaround: None.

Resolved Issues

• Installing a Windows 11 arm 24H2 virtual machine fails with a blank screen

  Installing a Windows 11 arm 24H2 virtual machine through the Get Windows from Microsoft option fails with a blank screen. The issue occurred because of a problem loading a VMware svga video driver included in the ISO file created during the installation of a guest virtual machine. To configure a VMware svga video driver after the guest operating system installation, make sure to install VMware Tools. 

• When creating a new virtual machine from an ISO image file, VMware Fusion does not recognize Windows 11 24H2

  If you create a virtual machine from a Windows 11 24H2 ISO image file, VMware Fusion recognizes a Windows Server 2025 iso file instead.

• Importing a Boot Camp partition or creating a virtual machine based on a Boot Camp partition might fail with virtual disk is corrupt error

  If you try importing a Boot Camp partition on your disk or creating a virtual machine based on the Boot Camp partition, you might encounter the the virtual disk is corrupt error. The issue occurs when you try converting a 4KN disk with 4096 bytes in sector size with a Boot Camp partition to a virtual disk.

• Virtual machine created on a VoiceOver enabled Mac shuts down randomly on macOS versions 14 and later

  If you enable VoiceOver on a macOS host version 14 and later and attempt to power on the virtual machine, the virtual machine randomly shuts down. In the console, you receive the The application with bundle ID com.vmware.vmware-vmx is running setugid(), which is not allowed. Exiting. error message. After upgrading to macOS version Sonoma 14.7 and macOS version Sequoia 15.0, the issue no longer occurs.

Training Mode input recording slots have now increased from 3 to 6. You can either assign them to individual buttons, or cycle through them through a button of your choice.

You can now save and load your Training Mode input recordings as files. 10 recording slots are available, and are saved in the data directory. You can save your recording slots for use between sessions, or even share the files with your friends to help them out! With 6 recording slots and 10 files they may be saved to, you can save and load up to 60 input sequences during any active training session.

For Streamers, Output Match Text for Multiple Sessions

You can have Flycast Dojo export game details like game name, player names, and current score to the out directory in your data, now separated by numbered session folders. This allows you to save old sessions, or even run multiple instances of the emulator with unique files for each open session.

System emulation

Removed features and incompatible changes

Consult the 'Removed features' page for details of suggested replacement functionality.

• The Nios II target has been removed.
• The "scsi" property of virtio-blk devices has been removed. SCSI command passthrough had never been present on virtio-blk 1.0 devices, and is now removed from legacy devices as well. Use virtio-scsi instead.
• The pvrdma device and rdmacm-mux helper has been removed.
• The "block migration" options to the migrate commands ("blk" and "inc" for QMP, "-b"/"-i" for the human monitor) have been removed; guest management software such as libvirt is able to perform block migration more efficiently using block jobs and NBD devices.
• The "compress" migration capability has been removed; multifd migration is able to do compression and can be used instead.

New deprecated options and features

Consult the "Deprecated Features" chapter of the QEMU System Emulation User's Guide for further details of the deprecations and their suggested replacements.

• Using the migration URI "fd" together with files has been deprecated. Use it only for sockets, and use "file:" to save a snapshot to a file.
• The "ref405ep" machine and PPC405 CPUs have been deprecated. Firmware images are not available and Linux is dropping support this year as well.
• The PCOMMIT instruction is not decoded by TCG anymore and the corresponding "-cpu pcommit=..." flag is deprecated.

• Compression offload support with two new compression modes:
  • multifd-compression qpl :: Uses Intel's Query Processing Library (QPL) to enable compression offload to the In-Memory Analytics Accelerator(IAA);
  • multifd-compression uadk :: Enables the usage of User Space Accelerator Development Kit (UADK) accelerator framework;
• New 'direct-io' migration parameter to support O_DIRECT in multifd migrations when targeting a file.
• New migration state 'postcopy-recover-setup' that marks the start of a postcopy recovery attempt. This can be used to disambiguate whether the 'postcopy-failed' state refers to the original postcopy or its recovery.

Block device backends and tools

• The QEMU 8.2 release introduced a regression in the ability to use TLS to encrypt the NBD connection used for storage migration, particularly visible when iothreads are in use. This regression has been fixed and the testsuite enhanced to ensure it does not regress again.
• CVE-2024-7409 has been patched, which was a long-standing vulnerability in using qemu as a transient NBD server, where a malicious client could crash qemu at the time of nbd-server-stop even if the client did not know the TLS secrets to complete a connection to the server.

Build Information

Build Dependencies

• When using Python 3.10 or older, building QEMU requires the tomli package to be installed on the host. (The dependency was introduced in QEMU 8.2 but until now QEMU included a vendored copy of the library).
• Building QEMU now requires Meson 1.1 or newer. QEMU however includes a copy of Meson, which is used if a suitable version is not available on the host.

Configuration

• When building with the "--without-default-devices" option, boards have to be enabled specifically in the configs/devices/*/*.mak files. In previous versions, most targets (all except ARM) listed enabled all boards even for --without-default-devices builds, and they had to be disabled instead.

Host support

• When built for the x86 architecture (either 32-bit or 64-bit) QEMU now can specify the desired architecture baseline. For example, configuring with --x86-version=2 will build a version of QEMU that requires x86-64-v2 processors (Intel Nehalem, or Sandy Bridge for the Pentium and Celeron lines, Intel Atom Silvermont, and AMD Bulldozer processors).
• libfdt is not anymore a hard requirement when building the i386-softmmu, mips64el-softmmu, ppc-softmmu and x86_64-softmmu targets. Instead, if libfdt is not available, boards that require it will not be included in the emulator.
• The --enable-avx512f option to configure has been removed, since there is no code in QEMU that uses AVX512F instructions.

Docker Tweaks

• Bumped docker images to Fedora 40 and Alpine 319

Windows

Testing and CI

• The ansible configure scripts for CI machines are now driven by lcitool metadata
• BSD images were updated for the python uprev
• Testing now dumps a packages.txt in the artefacts to help catch package changes
• checkpatch will prompt MAINTAINER actions when touching imported headers

Known issues

• See https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/milestones/13
• The x86 decoder was mostly rewritten and is still a bit slower than in QEMU 9.0 and earlier. Some optimizations are planned for future versions of QEMU.
