QEMU
****
We use QEMU to verify the implemented features of the Cortex-M architecture port in Zephyr.
Adequate coverage is achieved by defining and utilizing a list of QEMU targets,
each with a specific architecture variant and Arm peripheral support list.
The table below lists the QEMU platform targets defined in Zephyr
along with the corresponding Cortex-M implementation variant and the peripherals
these targets emulate.
