annomatg / dynarmic

An ARM dynamic recompiler.

Dynarmic

A dynamic recompiler for ARM.

Supported guest architectures

• ARMv6K
• 64-bit ARMv8

Supported host architectures

• x86-64

There are no plans to support x86-32.

Documentation

Design documentation can be found at docs/Design.md.

Plans

Near-term

• Complete ARMv8 support

Medium-term

• Optimizations

Long-term

• ARMv7A guest support
• ARMv5 guest support
• ARMv8 host support
