When trying to remove the -usbdevice option, there were complaints that
"-usbdevice braille" is still a very useful shortcut for some people.
Thus we never remove this option. Since it's not such a big burden to
keep it around, and it's also convenient in the sense that you don't
have to worry to enable a host controller explicitly with this option,
we should remove it from he deprecation list again.
However, there is one exception: "-usbdevice audio" should go away, since
audio devices without "audiodev=..." parameter are also on the deprecation
list and you cannot use "-usbdevice audio" with "audiodev".

TILE-Gx was only implemented in linux-user mode, but support for this CPU
was removed from the upstream Linux kernel in 2018, and it has also been
dropped from glibc, so there is no new Linux development taking place with
this architecture. For running the old binaries, users can simply use older
versions of QEMU.

Supporting '0x20M' looks odd, particularly since we have a 'B' suffix
that is ambiguous for bytes, as well as a less-frequently-used 'E'
suffix for extremely large exibytes. In practice, people using hex
inputs are specifying values in bytes (and would have written
0x2000000, or possibly relied on default_suffix in the case of
qemu_strtosz_MiB), and the use of scaling suffixes makes the most
sense for inputs in decimal (where the user would write 32M). But
rather than outright dropping support for hex-with-suffix, let's
follow our deprecation policy. Sadly, since qemu_strtosz() does not
have an Err** parameter, and plumbing that in would be a much larger
task, we instead go with just directly emitting the deprecation
warning to stderr.

The "delay" option was a hack that was introduced to allow writing "nodelay".
We are adding a "nodelay" option to be used as "nodelay=on", so recommend it

This is quite ugly, but a proper deprecation of "delay"
cannot be done if QEMU starts suggesting it. Since it's the

The userspace local APIC is basically untested and does not support many

other hand, the PIT and IOAPIC are okay as they are not tied to
the processor and are tested with -M kernel-irqchip=split.
Therefore, deprecate the local APIC and, with it, limit
-M kernel-irqchip=off to the ISA PC machine type, which does not

The -enable-fips option was added a long time ago to prevent the use of
single DES when VNC when FIPS mode is enabled. It should never have been
added, because apps are supposed to unconditionally honour FIPS mode
based on the '/proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled' file contents.
In addition there is more to achieving FIPS compliance than merely
blocking use of certain algorithms. Those algorithms which are used
need to perform self-tests at runtime.
QEMU's built-in cryptography provider has no support for self-tests,
and neither does the nettle library.
If QEMU is required to be used in a FIPS enabled host, then it must be
built with the libgcrypt library enabled, which will unconditionally
enforce FIPS compliance in any algorithm usage.
Thus there is no need to keep either the -enable-fips option in QEMU, or
QEMU's internal FIPS checking methods.

Options such as "server" or "nowait", that are commonly found in -chardev,

also does not have any notion of typing attached. It is even possible to
do "-device e1000,noid" and get a device with "id=off".

Since 'block-export-add' is new to 5.2, we can still tweak the
interface; there, allowing 'bitmaps':['str'] is nicer than
'bitmap':'str'. This wires up the qapi and qemu-nbd changes to permit
passing multiple bitmaps as distinct metadata contexts that the NBD
client may request, but the actual support for more than one will
require a further patch to the server.
Note that there are no changes made to the existing deprecated

BlockExportOptionsNbd, which fortunately does not affect QMP

This thread from a little over a year ago:
http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/sheepdog/2019-March/thread.html
states that sheepdog is no longer actively developed. The only mentioned
users are some companies who are said to have it for legacy reasons with
plans to replace it by Ceph. There is talk about cutting out existing
features to turn it into a simple demo of how to write a distributed
block service. There is no evidence of anyone working on that idea:
https://github.com/sheepdog/sheepdog/commits/master
No real commits to git since Jan 2018, and before then just some minor
technical debt cleanup.
There is essentially no activity on the mailing list aside from
patches to QEMU that get CC'd due to our MAINTAINERS entry.
Fedora packages for sheepdog failed to build from upstream source
because of the more strict linker that no longer merges duplicate
global symbols. Fedora patches it to add the missing "extern"
annotations and presumably other distros do to, but upstream source
remains broken.
There is only basic compile testing, no functional testing of the
driver.
Since there are no build pre-requisites the sheepdog driver is currently
enabled unconditionally. This would result in configure issuing a
deprecation warning by default for all users. Thus the configure default
is changed to disable it, requiring users to pass --enable-sheepdog to
build the driver.
