Which ring does qemu perform?
What ring does qemu perform if it is not associated with an existing hypervisor?
Any complete documentation on the matter would be appreciated as well.

QEMU always runs in a custom ring, even when bound to a hypervisor.

Qemu operates at ring level 3 (user space), and the "KVM" hypervisor that it uses for hardware mode runs at level 0 (kernel).
