We are going to remove the bitrotten bluetooth backend, so we can not use it in the n800 and n810 machines anymore. Replace the chardev here with a "null" chardev and stop including the "hw/bt.h" header. I am not aware of a full working N8x0 environment that can be used to test these machines, but the Linux kernel from the Meego project that can be found on http://stskeeps.subnetmask.net/meego-n8x0/ still seems to boot as far as it did before.

2019-09-10Fedora images: use URLs from stable "archives.fedoraproject.org"Cleber Rosa
The LinuxInitrd.test_with_2gib_file_should_work_with_linux_v4_16 test, from tests/acceptance/linux_initrd.py, is currently failing to fetch the "vmlinuz" file. The reason for the failure is that the Fedora project retires older versions from the "dl.fedoraproject.org" URL, and keeps them in "archives.fedoraproject.org". As an added note, that test uses a Fedora 28 image, because of the specific Linux kernel version requirements of the test. For the sake of stability, let's use URLs from the archived and supposedely ever stable URLs. The good news is that the currently supported versions are also hosted on the later. This change limits itself to change the URLs, while keeping the fetched files the same (as can be evidenced by the unchanged hashes). Documentation and the "vm tests" fedora definition were also updated.

2019-09-05qemu-doc: Do not hard-code the name of the QEMU binaryThomas Huth
In our documentation, we use a mix of "$QEMU", "qemu-system-i386" and "qemu-system-x86_64" when we give examples to the users how to run QEMU. Some more consistency would be good here. Also some distributions use different names for the QEMU binary (e.g. "qemu-kvm" in RHEL), so providing more flexibility here would also be good. Thus let's define some variables for the names of the QEMU command and use those in the documentation instead: @value{qemu_system} for generic examples, and @value{qemu_system_x86} for examples that only work with the x86 binaries.

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.

2018-07-12file-posix: specify expected filetypesJohn Snow
Adjust each caller of raw_open_common to specify if they are expecting host and character devices or not. Tighten expectations of file types upon open in the common code and refuse types that are not expected. This has two effects: (1) Character and block devices are now considered deprecated for the 'file' driver, which expects only S_IFREG, and (2) no file-posix driver (file, host_cdrom, or host_device) can open directories now. I don't think there's a legitimate reason to open directories as if they were files. This prevents QEMU from opening and attempting to probe a directory inode, which can break in exciting ways. One of those ways is lseek on ext4/xfs, which will return 0x7fffffffffffffff as the file size instead of EISDIR. This can coax QEMU into responding with a confusing "file too big" instead of "Hey, that's not a file".

2018-07-03crypto: Implement TLS Pre-Shared Keys (PSK).Richard W.M. Jones
Pre-Shared Keys (PSK) is a simpler mechanism for enabling TLS connections than using certificates. It requires only a simple secret key: $ mkdir -m 0700 /tmp/keys $ psktool -u rjones -p /tmp/keys/keys.psk $ cat /tmp/keys/keys.psk rjones:d543770c15ad93d76443fb56f501a31969235f47e999720ae8d2336f6a13fcbc The key can be secretly shared between clients and servers. Clients must specify the directory containing the "keys.psk" file and a username (defaults to "qemu"). Servers must specify only the directory. Example NBD client: $ qemu-img info \ --object tls-creds-psk,id=tls0,dir=/tmp/keys,username=rjones,endpoint=client \ --image-opts \ file.driver=nbd,file.host=localhost,file.port=10809,file.tls-creds=tls0,file.export=/ Example NBD server using qemu-nbd: $ qemu-nbd -t -x / \ --object tls-creds-psk,id=tls0,endpoint=server,dir=/tmp/keys \ --tls-creds tls0 \ image.qcow2 Example NBD server using nbdkit: $ nbdkit -n -e / -fv \ --tls=on --tls-psk=/tmp/keys/keys.psk \ file file=disk.img Signed-off-by: Richard W.M.

2018-06-28Deprecate the -enable-hax optionThomas Huth
We currently have got three ways of turning on the HAX accelerator: "-machine accel=hax", "-accel hax" and "-enable-hax". That's really confusing and overloaded. Since "-accel" is our preferred way to enable an accelerator nowadays, and "-accel hax" is even less to type than "-enable-hax", let's deprecate the "-enable-hax" option now. Note: While "-enable-kvm" is available since a long time and can hardly be removed since it is used in a lot of upper layer tools and scripts, the "-enable-hax" option is still rather new and not very widespread yet, so I think that it should be OK if we remove this in a couple of releases again (we'll see whether someone complains after seeing the deprecation message - then we could still reconsider to keep it if there a well-founded reasons).

2018-05-14net: Get rid of 'vlan' terminology and use 'hub' instead in the doc filesThomas Huth
'vlan' is very confusing since it does not mean something like IEEE 802.1Q, but rather emulated hubs, so let's switch to that terminology instead. While we're at it, move the subsection about hub a little bit downward in the documentation (it's not as important anymore as it was before the invention of the -netdev parameter), and extend it a little bit.

2018-05-14net: Remove the deprecated "vlan" parameterThomas Huth
It's been marked as deprecated since QEMU v2.9.0, so that should have been enough time for everybody to either just drop unnecessary "vlan=0" parameters, to switch to the modern -device + -netdev syntax for connecting guest NICs with host network backends, or to switch to the "hubport" netdev in case hubs are really wanted instead.

2018-05-09qemu-doc: provide details of supported build platformsDaniel P. Berrangé
Describe the policy the project uses to decide which OS are supported as build platforms. This will: - Allow maintainers to determine when the minimum version of a 3rd party piece of software can be increased without negatively impacting supported platforms. - Allow tailoring of CI environments to match the intended supported build platforms.

2018-05-09qemu-options: Remove deprecated -no-kvm-irqchipThomas Huth
We've never documented this option in our qemu-doc, so apart from the users that already used the old qemu-kvm fork before, most users should not be aware of this option at all. It's been marked as deprecated in the source code for a long time already, and officially marked as deprecated in the documentation since QEMU v2.10, so it should be fine to remove this now.

2018-05-09qemu-options: Remove deprecated -no-kvm-pit-reinjectionThomas Huth
Deprecated since the beginning when it was added for compatibility with the ancient qemu-kvm fork of QEMU, and it even printed out the deprecation warning since right from the start (i.e. QEMU v1.3.0), so it's really time to remove this now.

2018-05-09qemu-options: Mark -virtioconsole as deprecatedThomas Huth

2018-05-04qapi: deprecate CpuInfoFast.archLaszlo Ersek
The TARGET_BASE_ARCH values from "configure" don't all map to the @CpuInfoArch enum constants; in particular "s390x" from the former does not match @s390 in the latter. Clients are known to rely on the @s390 constant specifically, so we can't change it silently. Instead, deprecate the @CpuInfoFast.@arch member (in favor of @CpuInfoFast.@target) using the regular deprecation process. (No deprecation reminder is added to sysemu_target_to_cpuinfo_arch(): once @CpuInfoFast.@arch is removed, the assignment expression that calls sysemu_target_to_cpuinfo_arch() from qmp_query_cpus_fast() will have to disappear; in turn the static function left without callers will also break the build, thus it'll have to go.)

The deprecated SLIRP options -tftp, -bootp, -redir, -smb provide sample replacements that use "-net nic". Suggest "-nic" instead, since we finally have a path towards getting rid of "-net". For "-net vlan" the replacement involves hubport network devices, so mention that too.
