LoongArch System emulator
-------------------------

QEMU can emulate loongArch 64 bit systems via the
``qemu-system-loongarch64`` binary. Only one machine type ``virt`` is
supported.

When using KVM as accelerator, QEMU can emulate la464 cpu model. And when
using the default cpu model with TCG as accelerator, QEMU will emulate a
subset of la464 cpu features that should be enough to run distributions
built for the la464.
