of documentation here.

"""
launch_cmd means directly run the command, don't need set rootfs or env vars.
Starts a context manager for a 'oeqa.targetcontrol.QemuTarget' resource.
The underlying Qemu will be booted into a shell when the generator yields
and stopped when the 'with' block exits.
Usage:
with runqemu('core-image-minimal') as qemu:
qemu.run_serial('cat /proc/cpuinfo')
Args:
pn (str): (image) recipe to run on
ssh (boolean): whether or not to enable SSH (network access)
runqemuparams (str): space-separated list of params to pass to 'runqemu' script (like 'nographics', 'ovmf', etc.)
image_fstype (str): IMAGE_FSTYPE to use
launch_cmd (str): directly run this command and bypass automatic runqemu parameter generation
overrides (dict): dict of "'<bitbake-variable>': value" pairs that allows overriding bitbake variables
discard_writes (boolean): enables qemu -snapshot feature to prevent modifying original image
