For more demanding emulation I thought it might be a neat idea if
|
|
DOSBox could use the KVM virtualization driver in Linux (and eventually,
|
|
equivalent interfaces in other OSes) which could then be selectable
|
|
by setting core=vmx.
|
|
|
|
To explain: Almost all modern CPUs have virtualization extensions
|
|
built in (Intel VMX and AMD AMD-V). In cases where a DOS or Windows
|
|
game is very demanding, why not code DOSBox to allow using those
|
|
virtualization extensions? If done right, the game could run at
|
|
almost native speed of the processor. It would also open the
|
|
possibility of running more modern OSes under DOSBox (ones that
|
|
would normally run too slow in the full and dynamic cores).
