2024-03-15docs/s390: clarify even more that cpu-topology is KVM-onlyClaudio Fontana
At least for now cpu-topology is implemented only for KVM. We already say this, but this tries to be more explicit, and also show it in the examples. This adds a new reference in the introduction that we can point to, whenever we need to reference accelerators and how to select them.

2023-08-31accel: Remove HAX acceleratorPhilippe Mathieu-Daudé
HAX is deprecated since commits 73741fda6c ("MAINTAINERS: Abort HAXM maintenance") and 90c167a1da ("docs/about/deprecated: Mark HAXM in QEMU as deprecated"), released in v8.0.0. Per the latest HAXM release (v7.8 [*]), the latest QEMU supported is v7.2: Note: Up to this release, HAXM supports QEMU from 2.9.0 to 7.2.0. The next commit (https://github.com/intel/haxm/commit/da1b8ec072) added: HAXM v7.8.0 is our last release and we will not accept pull requests or respond to issues after this. It became very hard to build and test HAXM. Its previous maintainers made it clear they won't help. It doesn't seem to be a very good use of QEMU maintainers to spend their time in a dead project. Save our time by removing this orphan zombie code.

2023-02-02docs: add an introduction to the system docsAlex Bennée
Drop the frankly misleading quickstart section for a more rounded introduction section. This new section gives an overview of the accelerators as well as a high level introduction to some of the key features of the emulator. We also expand on a general form for a QEMU command line with a hopefully not too scary worked example of what this looks like.
