Paolo Bonzini 69a802792a audio: remove QEMU_AUDIO_* and -audio-help support
These have been deprecated for a long time, and the introduction of
-audio in 7.1.0 has cemented the new way of specifying an audio backend's
parameters.  However, there is still a need for simple configuration
of the audio backend in the desktop case; therefore, if no audiodev is
passed to audio_init(), go through a bunch of simple Audiodev* structures
and pick the first that can be initialized successfully.

The only QEMU_AUDIO_* option that is left in, waiting for a better idea,
is QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none which is used by qtest.

Remove all the parsing code, including the concept of "can_be_default"
audio drivers: now that audio_prio_list[] is only used in a single place,
wav can be excluded directly in that function.

Paolo Bonzini 9e58d7a756 ui/vnc: Require audiodev= to enable audio
If there is no audiodev do not send the audio ack in response to
VNC_ENCODING_AUDIO, so that clients aren't told audio exists, and
immediately drop the client if they try to send any audio control messages
when audio is not advertised.

These are the last users of the 128K SeaBIOS blob in the i440FX family.
Removing them allows us to drop PCI support from the 128K blob,

Philippe Mathieu-Daudé b91b0fc163 accel: Remove HAX accelerator
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.

Juan Quintela 7b24d32634 migration: skipped field is really obsolete.
Has return zero for more than 10 years.

Specifically we introduced the field in 1.5.0

    migration: do not sent zero pages in bulk stage

    during bulk stage of ram migration if a page is a
    zero page do not send it at all.
    the memory at the destination reads as zero anyway.

    even if there is an madvise with QEMU_MADV_DONTNEED
    at the target upon receipt of a zero page I have observed
    that the target starts swapping if the memory is overcommitted.
    it seems that the pages are dropped asynchronously.

    this patch also updates QMP to return the number of
    skipped pages in MigrationStats.

but removed its usage in 1.5.3

commit 9ef051e553
Author: Peter Lieven <pl@kamp.de>
Date:   Mon Jun 10 12:14:19 2013 +0200

    Revert "migration: do not sent zero pages in bulk stage"

    Not sending zero pages breaks migration if a page is zero
    at the source but not at the destination. This can e.g. happen
    if different BIOS versions are used at source and destination.
    It has also been reported that migration on pseries is completely
    broken with this patch.

    This effectively reverts commit f1c72795af.

Thomas Huth 9ffcbe2a60 os-posix: Allow 'chroot' via '-run-with' and deprecate the old '-chroot' option
We recently introduced "-run-with" for options that influence the
runtime behavior of QEMU. This option has the big advantage that it
can group related options (so that it is easier for the users to spot
them) and that the options become introspectable via QMP this way.
So let's start moving more switches into this option group, starting
with "-chroot" now.

As recent CVE-2023-2861 (fixed by f6b0de53fb) once again showed, the 9p
'proxy' fs driver is in bad shape. Using the 'proxy' backend was already

'local' backend (preferably in conjunction with its 'mapped' security
model) instead, but now it is time to officially deprecate the 'proxy'

Gregory Price adacc814f5 hw/cxl: Multi-Region CXL Type-3 Devices (Volatile and Persistent)
This commit enables each CXL Type-3 device to contain one volatile
memory region and one persistent region.

Two new properties have been added to cxl-type3 device initialization:
    [volatile-memdev] and [persistent-memdev]

The existing [memdev] property has been deprecated and will default the
memory region to a persistent memory region (although a user may assign
the region to a ram or file backed region). It cannot be used in
combination with the new [persistent-memdev] property.

Partitioning volatile memory from persistent memory is not yet supported.

Volatile memory is mapped at DPA(0x0), while Persistent memory is mapped
at DPA(vmem->size), per CXL Spec 8.2.9.8.2.0 - Get Partition Info.

Peter Maydell 34c18203d4 qmp: Deprecate 'singlestep' member of StatusInfo
The 'singlestep' member of StatusInfo has never done what the QMP
documentation claims it does.  What it actually reports is whether
TCG is working in "one guest instruction per translation block" mode.

We no longer need this field for the HMP 'info status' command, as
we've moved that information to 'info jit'.  It seems unlikely that
anybody is monitoring the state of this obscure TCG setting via QMP,
especially since QMP provides no means for changing the setting.  So
simply deprecate the field, without providing any replacement.

Until we do eventually delete the member, correct the misstatements
in the QAPI documentation about it.

If we do find that there are users for this, then the most likely way
we would provide replacement access to the information would be to
put the accelerator QOM object at a well-known path such as
/machine/accel, which could then be used with the existing qom-set
and qom-get commands.

Peter Maydell e9ccfdd91d hmp: Add 'one-insn-per-tb' command equivalent to 'singlestep'
The 'singlestep' HMP command is confusing, because it doesn't
actually have anything to do with single-stepping the CPU.  What it
does do is force TCG emulation to put one guest instruction in each
TB, which can be useful in some situations.

Create a new HMP command  'one-insn-per-tb', so we can document that
'singlestep' is just a deprecated synonym for it, and eventually
perhaps drop it.

We aren't obliged to do deprecate-and-drop for HMP commands,
but it's easy enough to do so, so we do.

Thomas Huth 8635a3a153 Revert "docs/about/deprecated: Deprecate 32-bit arm hosts for system emulation"
This reverts commit 1d0a8eba38.

The commit made the wrong assumption that 64-bit distros are most
common these days on arm devices, but as Liviu Ionescu pointed out,
the recommended OS for the very popular Raspberry Pi boards is still
the 32-bit variant, and thus likely still used by a lot of people:

 https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/operating-systems/

Thus it's likely still a little bit too early to put this host
environment on the deprecation list and we should wait a little
bit longer 'til 64-bit distros are the predominant ones.

For running QEMU in system emulation mode, the user needs a rather
strong host system, i.e. not only an embedded low-frequency controller.
All recent beefy arm host machines should support 64-bit now, it's
unlikely that anybody is still seriously using QEMU on a 32-bit arm
CPU, so we deprecate the 32-bit arm hosts here to finally save use
some time and precious CI minutes.

Alex Bennée 54ab3c3fee Deprecate 32 bit big-endian MIPS
It's becoming harder to maintain a cross-compiler to test this host
architecture as the old stable Debian 10 ("Buster") moved into LTS
which supports fewer architectures. For now:

  - mark it's deprecation in the docs
  - downgrade the containers to build TCG tests only
  - drop the cross builds from our CI

Users with an appropriate toolchain and user-space can still take
their chances building it.

Let's use a more appropriate wording for this command line and config
file option. The old ones are still accepted for compatibility reasons,
but marked as deprecated now so that it could be removed in a future
version of QEMU.

This change is based on earlier patches from Philippe Mathieu-Daudé,
with the idea for the new option name suggested by BALATON Zoltan.

And while we're at it, replace the "?" in the help text with "help"
since that does not have the problem of conflicting with the wildcard
character of the shells.

In 60592cfed2 ("hw/arm/virt: dt: add kaslr-seed property"), the
kaslr-seed property was added, but the equally as important rng-seed
property was forgotten about, which has identical semantics for a
similar purpose. This commit implements it in exactly the same way as
kaslr-seed. It then changes the name of the disabling option to reflect
that this has more to do with randomness vs determinism, rather than
something particular about kaslr.

Paolo Bonzini 039a68373c introduce -audio as a replacement for -soundhw
-audio is used like "-audio pa,model=sb16".  It is almost as simple as
-soundhw, but it reuses the -audiodev parsing machinery and attaches an
audiodev to the newly-created device.  The main 'feature' is that
it knows about adding the codec device for model=intel-hda, and adding
the audiodev to the codec device.

In the future, it could be extended to support default models or
builtin devices, just like -nic, or even a default backend.  For now,
keep it simple.

it is e.g. also done for the efuse device in hw/arm/xlnx-zcu102.c).

Since the old way of configuring the device has already been published
with the previous QEMU versions, we cannot remove this immediately, but
have to deprecate it and support it for at least two more releases.

Kevin Wolf 4d8b0f0a95 docs: Deprecate incorrectly typed device_add arguments
While introducing a non-QemuOpts code path for device creation for JSON
-device, we noticed that QMP device_add doesn't check its input
correctly (accepting arguments that should have been rejected), and that
users may be relying on this behaviour (libvirt did until it was fixed
recently).

Let's use a deprecation period before we fix this bug in QEMU to avoid
nasty surprises for users.

Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy 1084159b31 qapi: deprecate drive-backup
Modern way is using blockdev-add + blockdev-backup, which provides a
lot more control on how target is opened.

As example of drive-backup problems consider the following:

User of drive-backup expects that target will be opened in the same
cache and aio mode as source. Corresponding logic is in
drive_backup_prepare(), where we take bs->open_flags of source.

It works rather bad if source was added by blockdev-add. Assume source
is qcow2 image. On blockdev-add we should specify aio and cache options
for file child of qcow2 node. What happens next:

drive_backup_prepare() looks at bs->open_flags of qcow2 source node.
But there no BDRV_O_NOCAHE neither BDRV_O_NATIVE_AIO: BDRV_O_NOCAHE is
places in bs->file->bs->open_flags, and BDRV_O_NATIVE_AIO is nowhere,
as file-posix parse options and simply set s->use_linux_aio.

The documentation is updated in a minimal way, so that drive-backup is
noted only as a deprecated command, and blockdev-backup used in most of
places.

Paolo Bonzini d12b64eaeb vl: deprecate -watchdog
-watchdog is the same as -device except that it is case insensitive (and it
allows only watchdog devices of course).  Now that "-device help" can list
as such the available watchdog devices, we can deprecate it.

Note that even though -watchdog tries to be case insensitive, it fails
at that: "-watchdog i6300xyz" fails with "Unknown -watchdog device",
but "-watchdog i6300ESB" also fails (when the generated -device option
is processed) with an error "'i6300ESB' is not a valid device model name".
For this reason, the documentation update does not mention the case
insensitivity of -watchdog.

Markus Armbruster 75ecee7262 qapi: Enable enum member introspection to show more than name
The next commit will add feature flags to enum members.  There's a
problem, though: query-qmp-schema shows an enum type's members as an
array of member names (SchemaInfoEnum member @values).  If it showed
an array of objects with a name member, we could simply add more
members to these objects.  Since it's just strings, we can't.

I can see three ways to correct this design mistake:

1. Do it the way we should have done it, plus compatibility goo.

   We want a ['SchemaInfoEnumMember'] member in SchemaInfoEnum.  Since
   changing @values would be a compatibility break, add a new member
   @members instead.

   @values is now redundant.  In my testing, output of
   qemu-system-x86_64's query-qmp-schema grows by 11% (18.5KiB).

   We can deprecate @values now and drop it later.  This will break
   outmoded clients.  Well-behaved clients such as libvirt are
   expected to break cleanly.

2. Like 1, but omit "boring" elements of @member, and empty @member.

   @values does not become redundant.  @members augments it.  Somewhat
   cumbersome, but output of query-qmp-schema grows only as we make
   enum members non-boring.

   There is nothing to deprecate here.

3. Versioned query-qmp-schema.

   query-qmp-schema provides either @values or @members.  The QMP
   client can select which version it wants.  There is no redundant
   output.

   We can deprecate old versions and eventually drop them.  This will
   break outmoded clients.  Breaking cleanly is easier than for 1.

   While 1 and 2 operate within the common rules for compatible
   evolution apply (section "Compatibility considerations" in
   docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.rst), 3 bypasses them.  Attractive when
   operating within the rules is just too awkward.  Not the case here.

This commit implements 1.  Libvirt developers prefer it.

Deprecate @values in favour of @members.  Since query-qmp-schema
compatibility is pretty fundamental for management applications, an
extended grace period is advised.

Yanan Wang c2511b1632 machine: Deprecate "parameter=0" SMP configurations
In the SMP configuration, we should either provide a topology
parameter with a reasonable value (greater than zero) or just
omit it and QEMU will compute the missing value.

The users shouldn't provide a configuration with any parameter
of it specified as zero (e.g. -smp 8,sockets=0) which could
possibly cause unexpected results in the -smp parsing. So we
deprecate this kind of configurations since 6.2 by adding the
explicit sanity check.

Daniel Henrique Barboza d43f1670c7 qapi/qdev.json: add DEVICE_UNPLUG_GUEST_ERROR QAPI event
At this moment we only provide one event to report a hotunplug error,
MEM_UNPLUG_ERROR. As of Linux kernel 5.12 and QEMU 6.0.0, the pseries
machine is now able to report unplug errors for other device types, such
as CPUs.

Instead of creating a (device_type)_UNPLUG_ERROR for each new device,
create a generic DEVICE_UNPLUG_GUEST_ERROR event that can be used by all
guest side unplug errors in the future. This event has a similar API as
the existing DEVICE_DELETED event, always providing the QOM path of the
device and dev->id if there's any.

With this new generic event, MEM_UNPLUG_ERROR is now marked as deprecated.

The alt_grab and ctrl_grab parameter of the -display sdl option prevent

eventually remove them. And since this feature is also rather niche anyway,
we should not clutter the top-level option list with these, so let's
also deprecate the "-alt-grab" and the "-ctrl-grab" options while we're
at it.

Once the deprecation period of "alt_grab" and "ctrl_grab" is over, we
then can finally switch the -display sdl option to use QAPI internally,
too.

There is a mixture of "since/removed in X.Y" vs "since/removed in X.Y.Z"

to use an unified format. It seems unlikely that we will ever deprecate
something in a stable release, and even more unlikely that we'll remove
something in one, so the short versions look like the thing we want to
standardize on.

So here we unify the subject format in deprecated.rst to "since X.Y", and
unify the subject format in removed-features.rst to "removed in X.Y".
