QEMU/Devices

QEMU provides several virtual hardware devices, which will be documented on this page.

How to add a device
You can add a virtual device to QEMU by specifying an argument, usually the  argument, although there are many others as well.

You can also add them while the VM is running by switching to the console and using the  command.

An example command: qemu-system-x86_64 -device devicename,modifier1=value1,modifier2=value2 ...
