``skipped`` field in Migration stats has been deprecated. It hasn't
been used for more than 10 years.
+``inc`` migrate command option (since 8.2)
+''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
+
+Use blockdev-mirror with NBD instead.
+
+As an intermediate step the ``inc`` functionality can be achieved by
+setting the ``block-incremental`` migration parameter to ``true``.
+But this parameter is also deprecated.

+``blk`` migrate command option (since 8.2)
+''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
+
+Use blockdev-mirror with NBD instead.
+
+As an intermediate step the ``blk`` functionality can be achieved by
+setting the ``block`` migration capability to ``true``. But this
+capability is also deprecated.
+
+block migration (since 8.2)
+'''''''''''''''''''''''''''
+
+Block migration is too inflexible. It needs to migrate all block
+devices or none.
+
+Please see "QMP invocation for live storage migration with
+``blockdev-mirror`` + NBD" in docs/interop/live-block-operations.rst
+for a detailed explanation.
+
+old compression method (since 8.2)
+''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
+
+Compression method fails too much. Too many races. We are going to
+remove it if nobody fixes it. For starters, migration-test
+compression tests are disabled becase they fail randomly. If you need
+compression, use multifd compression methods.
