Daniel P. Berrangé cbde7be900 migrate: remove QMP/HMP commands for speed, downtime and cache size
The generic 'migrate_set_parameters' command handle all types of param.

Only the QMP commands were documented in the deprecations page, but the
rationale for deprecating applies equally to HMP, and the replacements
exist. Furthermore the HMP commands are just shims to the QMP commands,
so removing the latter breaks the former unless they get re-implemented.

Thomas Huth 6db34277e3 usb: Un-deprecate -usbdevice (except for -usbdevice audio which gets removed)
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".

Thomas Huth 2cc1a90166 Remove deprecated target tilegx
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.

Eric Blake f174cd3350 utils: Deprecate hex-with-suffix sizes
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.

Paolo Bonzini fe636424ca qemu-option: do not suggest using the delay option
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
instead of "delay".

This is quite ugly, but a proper deprecation of "delay"
cannot be done if QEMU starts suggesting it.  Since it's the
only case I opted for this very much ad-hoc patch.

Paolo Bonzini 2c933ac6a8 KVM: x86: deprecate -M kernel-irqchip=off except for -M isapc
The userspace local APIC is basically untested and does not support many
features such as TSC deadline timer, x2APIC or PV spinlocks.  On the
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
have a local APIC at all.

Daniel P. Berrangé 166310299a os: deprecate the -enable-fips option and QEMU's FIPS enforcement
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,
are sugar for "server=on" and "wait=off".  This is quite surprising and
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".

Deprecate it and print a warning when it is encountered.  In general,
this short form for boolean options only seems to be in wide use for
-chardev and -spice.

According to our deprecation policy, we could have removed it for QEMU 5.2

The nanoMIPS ISA has been announced in 2018 for various projects:

GCC:   https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc/2018-05/msg00012.html
Linux: https://lwn.net/Articles/753605/
QEMU:  https://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg530721.html

Unfortunately the links referenced doesn't work anymore (www.mips.com).

From this Wayback machine link [1] we can get to a working place to
download a toolchain (a more recent release than the one referenced
in the announcement mails):
http://codescape.mips.com/components/toolchain/nanomips/2018.04-02/downloads.html

The toolchain page mention LLVM but simply links http://llvm.org/
where there is no reference on nanoMIPS.

The only reference in the GCC mailing list, is the nanoMIPS
announcement: https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2018-May.txt

The developer who authored the announcements have been emailed [2]
to ask for more information but all their emails are now bouncing:

- Your message to Stefan.Markovic@mips.com couldn't be delivered.

- Your message to smarkovic@wavecomp.com couldn't be delivered.

- Couldn't deliver the message to the following recipients:
    Robert.Suchanek@mips.com, matthew.fortune@mips.com,
    marcin.nowakowski@mips.com

Our deprecation policy do not allow feature removal before 2 release,
therefore declare the nanoMIPS ISA code deprecated as of QEMU 5.2.
This gives time to developers to update the QEMU community, or
interested parties to step in to maintain this code.

Philippe Mathieu-Daudé f169413c27 hw/mips: Remove the 'r4k' machine
We deprecated the support for the 'r4k' machine for the 5.0 release
(commit d32dc61421), which means that our deprecation policy allows
us to drop it in release 5.2. Remove the code.

To repeat the rationale from the deprecation note:
- this virtual machine has no specification
- the Linux kernel dropped support for it 10 years ago

Users are recommended to use the Malta board instead.

Eric Blake cbad81cef8 nbd: Update qapi to support exporting multiple bitmaps
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
'nbd-server-add' command; this required splitting the QAPI type
BlockExportOptionsNbd, which fortunately does not affect QMP
introspection.

Thomas Huth 7239c050e8 Remove deprecated -no-kvm option
The option has never been mentioned in our documentation, it's been
deprecated since years, it's marked with QEMU_ARCH_I386 (which does
not make sense anymore since KVM is available on other architectures,
too), it does not do anything by default in upstream QEMU (since TCG
is the default here anyway), and we're spending too much precious time
each year discussing whether it makes sense to keep this option as a
nice suger or not... let's finally put an end on this and remove it.

Daniel P. Berrangé e1c4269763 block: deprecate the sheepdog block driver
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.

Thomas Huth 4258c8e221 docs/system/deprecated: Mark the 'moxie' CPU as deprecated
It is currently unclear whether anybody is still using the 'moxie' CPU,
and there are no images for testing available this CPU, so the code has
likely bit-rotten in the course of time. When I asked the maintainer
for information, I did not get a reply within four weeks yet (see
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-08/msg07201.html).
The last Signed-off-by line from Anthony in our repo is from 2013,
so it seems like this code is rather unmaintained. Time to put it onto
the deprecation list to see whether somebody is still interested in this
code or whether we could remove it in a couple of releases.

Stefan Hajnoczi ef1f5b0a96 docs/system: clarify deprecation schedule
The sentence explaining the deprecation schedule is ambiguous. Make it
clear that a feature deprecated in the Nth release is guaranteed to
remain available in the N+1th release. Removal can occur in the N+2nd
release or later.

As an example of this in action, see commit
25956af3fe ("block: Finish deprecation of
'qemu-img convert -n -o'"). The feature was deprecated in QEMU 4.2.0. It
was present in the 5.0.0 release and removed in the 5.1.0 release.
