(Describe how to initialize a QEMU ramfb device)
 
Line 1:
== Introduction ==
ramfb is a simple way to get graphics on QEMU via a framebuffer in memory on embedded platforms like ARM or riscv.
It works by adding <code>-device ramfb</code> to your QEMU command line and then configuring ramfb via fw_cfg.
ramfb requires QEMU DMA support which should be available on platforms that have fw_cfg as MMIO (as opposed to x86 IO ports).
