2018-09-24Merge remote-tracking branch 'remotes/dgibson/tags/ppc-for-3.1-20180907' ↵Peter Maydell
into staging ppc patch queue 2018-09-07 Here's another pull request for qemu-3.1. No real theme here, just an assortment of various fixes. Probably the most notable thing is the removal of the ppcemb target which has been deprecated for some time now. # gpg: Signature made Fri 07 Sep 2018 08:30:02 BST # gpg: using RSA key 6C38CACA20D9B392 # gpg: Good signature from "David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>" # gpg: aka "David Gibson (Red Hat) <dgibson@redhat.com>" # gpg: aka "David Gibson (ozlabs.org) <dgibson@ozlabs.org>" # gpg: aka "David Gibson (kernel.org) <dwg@kernel.org>" # Primary key fingerprint: 75F4 6586 AE61 A66C C44E 87DC 6C38 CACA 20D9 B392 * remotes/dgibson/tags/ppc-for-3.1-20180907: target-ppc: Extend HWCAP2 bits for ISA 3.0 target/ppc/kvm: set vcpu as online/offline Fix a deadlock case in the CPU hotplug flow spapr: Correct reference count on spapr-cpu-core mac_newworld: implement custom FWPathProvider uninorth: add ofw-addr property to allow correct fw path generation mac_oldworld: implement custom FWPathProvider grackle: set device fw_name and address for correct fw path generation macio: add addr property to macio IDE object macio: add macio bus to help with fw path generation macio: move MACIOIDEState type declarations to macio.h spapr_pci: fix potential NULL pointer dereference spapr: fix leak of rev array ppc: Remove deprecated ppcemb target Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>
2018-08-31net: Remove the deprecated -tftp, -bootp, -redir and -smb optionsThomas Huth
These options likely do not work as expected as soon as the user tries to use more than one network interface at once. The parameters have been marked as deprecated since QEMU v2.6, so users had plenty of time to move their scripts to the new syntax. Time to remove the old parameters now.

2018-08-31Remove the deprecated -nodefconfig optionThomas Huth
It's the same as -no-user-config and marked as deprecated since three releases already. Time to remove it now. Acked-by: Peter Krempa <pkrempa@redhat.com> Acked-by: Ján Tomko <jtomko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>

2018-08-28ppc: Remove deprecated ppcemb targetThomas Huth
There is no known available OS for ppc around anymore that uses page sizes below 4k, so it does not make much sense that we keep wasting our time on building and testing the ppcemb-softmmu target. It has been deprecated since two releases, and nobody complained, so let's remove this now. Signed-off-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
2018-08-24vnc: remove support for deprecated tls, x509, x509verify optionsDaniel P. Berrangé
The 'tls-creds' option accepts the name of a TLS credentials object. This replaced the usage of 'tls', 'x509' and 'x509verify' options in 2.5.0. These deprecated options were grandfathered in when the deprecation policy was introduded in 2.10.0, so can now finally be removed. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

2018-08-15block: Remove deprecated -drive option serialKevin Wolf
This reinstates commit b0083267444a5e0f28391f6c2831a539f878d424, which was temporarily reverted for the 3.0 release so that libvirt gets some extra time to update their command lines. The -drive option serial was deprecated in QEMU 2.10. It's time to remove it. Tests need to be updated to set the serial number with -global instead of using the -drive option.

2018-08-15block: Remove deprecated -drive geometry optionsKevin Wolf
This reinstates commit a7aff6dd10b16b67e8b142d0c94c5d92c3fe88f6, which was temporarily reverted for the 3.0 release so that libvirt gets some extra time to update their command lines. The -drive options cyls, heads, secs and trans were deprecated in QEMU 2.10. It's time to remove them. hd-geo-test tested both the old version with geometry options in -drive and the new one with -device. Therefore the code using -drive doesn't have to be replaced there, we just need to remove the -drive test cases. This in turn allows some simplification of the code.

2018-07-16qemu-doc: Move appendix "Deprecated features" to its own fileMarkus Armbruster
Consumers of QEMU need to track feature deprecation. Keeping deprecation documentation in its own file helps in two small ways: * You can track changes the easy and obvious way, with git-log. Before, you had to resort to more complex gittery like "git-log --oneline -L '/@node Deprecated features/,/@node Supported build platforms/:qemu-doc.texi'" * It lets us use MAINTAINERS to copy interested parties on deprecation patches, so they can advise or object before they're a done deal. The next commit will do that for libvirt.
