2024-05-10target/i386: remove PCOMMIT from TCG, deprecate propertyPaolo Bonzini1-0/+8
The PCOMMIT instruction was never included in any physical processor. TCG implements it as a no-op instruction, but its utility is debatable to say the least. Drop it from the decoder since it is only available with "-cpu max", which does not guarantee migration compatibility across versions, and deprecate the property just in case someone is using it as "pcommit=off".

The old "-runas" option has the disadvantage that it is not visible in the QAPI schema, so it is not available via the normal introspection mechanisms. We've recently introduced the "-run-with" option for exactly this purpose, which is meant to handle the options that affect the runtime behavior. Thus let's introduce a "user=..." parameter here now and deprecate the old "-runas" option.

2024-05-08migration: Deprecate fd: for file migrationFabiano Rosas1-0/+14
The fd: URI can currently trigger two different types of migration, a TCP migration using sockets and a file migration using a plain file. This is in conflict with the recently introduced (8.2) QMP migrate API that takes structured data as JSON-like format. We cannot keep the same backend for both types of migration because with the new API the code is more tightly coupled to the type of transport. This means a TCP migration must use the 'socket' transport and a file migration must use the 'file' transport. If we keep allowing fd: when using a file, this creates an issue when the user converts the old-style (fd:) to the new style ("transport": "socket") invocation because the file descriptor in question has previously been allowed to be either a plain file or a socket. To avoid creating too much confusion, we can simply deprecate the fd: + file usage, which is thought to be rarely used currently and instead establish a 1:1 correspondence between fd: URI and socket transport, and file: URI and file transport.

2024-03-11hw/arm: Deprecate various old Arm machine typesPeter Maydell1-0/+15
QEMU includes some models of old Arm machine types which are a bit problematic for us because: * they're written in a very old way that uses numerous APIs that we would like to get away from (eg they don't use qdev, they use qemu_system_reset_request(), they use vmstate_register(), etc) * they've been that way for a decade plus and nobody particularly has stepped up to try to modernise the code (beyond some occasional work here and there) * we often don't have test cases for them, which means that if we do try to do the necessary refactoring work on them we have no idea if they even still work at all afterwards All these machine types are also of hardware that has largely passed away into history and where I would not be surprised to find that e.g. the Linux kernel support was never tested on real hardware any more. After some consultation with the Linux kernel developers, we are going to deprecate: All PXA2xx machines: akita Sharp SL-C1000 (Akita) PDA (PXA270) borzoi Sharp SL-C3100 (Borzoi) PDA (PXA270) connex Gumstix Connex (PXA255) mainstone Mainstone II (PXA27x) spitz Sharp SL-C3000 (Spitz) PDA (PXA270) terrier Sharp SL-C3200 (Terrier) PDA (PXA270) tosa Sharp SL-6000 (Tosa) PDA (PXA255) verdex Gumstix Verdex Pro XL6P COMs (PXA270) z2 Zipit Z2 (PXA27x) All OMAP2 machines: n800 Nokia N800 tablet aka. RX-34 (OMAP2420) n810 Nokia N810 tablet aka. RX-44 (OMAP2420) One of the OMAP1 machines: cheetah Palm Tungsten|E aka. Cheetah PDA (OMAP310) Rationale: * for QEMU dropping individual machines is much less beneficial than if we can drop support for an entire SoC * the OMAP2 QEMU code in particular is large, old and unmaintained, and none of the OMAP2 kernel maintainers said they were using QEMU in any of their testing/development * although there is a setup that is booting test kernels on some of the PXA2xx machines, nobody seemed to be using them as part of their active kernel development and my impression from the email thread is that PXA is the closest of all these SoC families to being dropped from the kernel soon * nobody said they were using cheetah, so it's entirely untested and quite probably broken * on the other hand the OMAP1 sx1 model does seem to be being used as part of kernel development, and there was interest in keeping collie around In particular, the mainstone, tosa and z2 machine types have already been dropped from Linux.

Currently, it was allowed for users to specify the unsupported topology parameter as "1". For example, x86 PC machine doesn't support drawer/book/cluster topology levels, but user could specify "-smp drawers=1,books=1,clusters=1". This is meaningless and confusing, so that the support for this kind of configurations is marked deprecated since 9.0. And report warning message for such case like: qemu-system-x86_64: warning: Deprecated CPU topology (considered invalid): Unsupported clusters parameter mustn't be specified as 1 qemu-system-x86_64: warning: Deprecated CPU topology (considered invalid): Unsupported books parameter mustn't be specified as 1 qemu-system-x86_64: warning: Deprecated CPU topology (considered invalid): Unsupported drawers parameter mustn't be specified as 1 Users have to ensure that all the topology members described with -smp are supported by the target machine.

2023-10-27docs/about: Mark the old pc-i440fx-2.0 - 2.3 machine types as deprecatedThomas Huth1-0/+8
As we've seen in the past, it's useful for deprecating old machine types to finally be able to get of legacy code or do other clean-ups (see e.g. commit ea985d235b868047 that was used to drop the PCI code in the 128k bios binaries to free some precious space in those binaries). So let's continue deprecating the oldest pc machine types. QEMU 2.3 has been released 8 years ago, so that's plenty of time since such machine types have been used by default, thus deprecating pc-i440fx-2.0 up to pc-i440fx-2.3 should be fine nowadays.

This subsystem is said to be in a bad shape (see e.g. [1], [2] and [3]), and nobody seems to feel responsible to pick up patches for this and send them via a pull request. For example there is a patch for a CVE-worthy bug posted more than half a year ago [4] which has never been merged. Thus let's mark it as deprecated and finally remove it unless somebody steps up and improves the code quality and adds proper regression tests.
