GXemul (formerly known as mips64emul) is a computer architecture emulator being developed by Anders Gavare. It is available as free software under a revised BSD-style license. In 2005, Gavare changed the name of the software project from mips64emul to GXemul. This was to avoid giving the impression that the emulator was confined to the MIPS instruction set, which was the only architecture being emulated initially.

  • GXemul (formerly known as mips64emul) is a computer architecture emulator being developed by Anders Gavare. It is available as free software under a revised BSD-style license. In 2005, Gavare changed the name of the software project from mips64emul to GXemul. This was to avoid giving the impression that the emulator was confined to the MIPS instruction set, which was the only architecture being emulated initially. Although development of the emulator is still a work-in-progress, since 2004 it has been stable enough to let various unmodified guest operating systems run as if they were running on real hardware. Currently emulated processor architectures include ARM, MIPS, M88K, PowerPC, and SuperH. Guest operating systems that have been verified to work inside the emulator are NetBSD, OpenBSD, Linux, HelenOS, Ultrix, and Sprite. Apart from running entire guest operating systems, the emulator can also be used for experiments on a smaller scale, such as hobby operating system development, or it can be used as a general debugger.
  • GXemul (anteriormente conocido como mips64emul) es un emulador de la arquitectura de computadores MIPS. Es software libre bajo una licencia tipo BSD. Fue escrito originalmente por Anders Gavare, un estudiante sueco en Agosto de 2003. En 2005, Gavare cambió el nombre del proyecto de mips64emul a GXemul, para evitar dar la impresión de que el emulador esté limitado al juego de instrucciones MIPS64. Aunque el software SPIM llevaba ya mucho tiempo disponible para emular arquitecturas MIPS de 32 bits como el R2000 o el R3000, la emulación provista por SPIM está limitada al microprocesador, y no simula sistemas completos. Sin embargo, GXemul emula varios sistemas de computadoras completos como las DECstation de DEC o las SGI Indy, basadas en procesadores MIPS. Aunque la completitud de la simulación varía de unos sistemas a otros, la mayoría de las arquitecturas emuladas soportan emulación de controladoras SCSI, framebuffers, y en algunos casos, sistemas operativos completos de tal manera que puede instalarse, por ejemplo, Ultrix. Otras características interesantes de GXemul son su portabilidad, y traducción binaria en tiempo real para mejorar la velocidad de la emulación. A Enero de 2005 los únicos sistemas con soporte para esta característica son los DEC Alpha y los x86.
