This was about 7 to 8 years back...
I think I have used
qemu
https://man.dragonflybsd.org/?command=qemu&section=1

And
vkernel
https://www.dragonflybsd.org/docs/handbook/vkernel/

Since then I had severe psychiatric problems ( not because I used them, lol
)
And years of string medication and shock treatments wiped those details of
my memory.. but I hope this gives you some direction to look...

In my experience both worked well!
