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.

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.

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

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.

It is currently unclear whether anybody is still using the 'moxie' CPU,

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

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.

Creating an image that requires format probing of the backing image is
potentially unsafe (we've had several CVEs over the years based on
probes leaking information to the guest on a subsequent boot, although
these days tools like libvirt are aware of the issue enough to prevent
the worst effects). For example, if our probing algorithm ever
changes, or if other tools like libvirt determine a different probe
result than we do, then subsequent use of that backing file under a
different format will present corrupted data to the guest.
Fortunately, the worst effects occur only when the backing image is
originally raw, and we at least prevent commit into a probed raw
backing file that would change its probed type.
Still, it is worth starting a deprecation clock so that future
qemu-img can refuse to create backing chains that would rely on
probing, to encourage clients to avoid unsafe practices. Most
warnings are intentionally emitted from bdrv_img_create() in the block
layer, but qemu-img convert uses bdrv_create() which cannot emit its
own warning without causing spurious warnings on other code paths. In
the end, all command-line image creation or backing file rewriting now
performs a check.
Furthermore, if we probe a backing file as non-raw, then it is safe to
explicitly record that result (rather than relying on future probes);
only where we probe a raw image do we care about further warnings to
the user when using such an image (for example, commits into a
probed-raw backing file are prevented), to help them improve their
tooling. But whether or not we make the probe results explicit, we
still warn the user to remind them to upgrade their workflow to supply
-F always.
iotest 114 specifically wants to create an unsafe image for later
amendment rather than defaulting to our new default of recording a
probed format, so it needs an update. While touching it, expand it to
cover all of the various warnings enabled by this patch. iotest 301
also shows a change to qcow messages.

The use of 'qemu-img amend' to change qcow2 backing files is not
tested very well. In particular, our implementation has a bug where
if a new backing file is provided without a format, then the prior
format is blindly reused, even if this results in data corruption, but
this is not caught by iotests.
There are also situations where amending other options needs access to
the original backing file (for example, on a downgrade to a v2 image,
knowing whether a v3 zero cluster must be allocated or may be left
unallocated depends on knowing whether the backing file already reads
as zero), but the command line does not have a nice way to tell us
both the backing file to use for opening the image as well as the
backing file to install after the operation is complete.
Even if we do allow changing the backing file, it is redundant with
the existing ability to change backing files via 'qemu-img rebase -u'.
It is time to deprecate this support (leaving the existing behavior
intact, even if it is buggy), and at a point in the future, require
the use of only 'qemu-img rebase' for adjusting backing chain
relations, saving 'qemu-img amend' for changes unrelated to the
backing chain.

Back in commit 6e6e55f5 (Jul 2017, v2.10), we tweaked the code to warn
if the backing file could not be opened but the user gave a size,
unless the user also passes the -u option to bypass the open of the
backing file. As one common reason for failure to open the backing
file is when there is mismatch in the requested backing format in
relation to what the backing file actually contains, we actually want
to open the backing file and ensure that it has the right format in as
many cases as possible. iotest 301 for qcow demonstrates how
detecting explicit format mismatch is useful to prevent the creation
of an image that would probe differently than the user requested. Now
is the time to finally turn the warning an error, as promised.
Note that the original warning was added prior to our documentation of
an official deprecation policy (eb22aeca, also Jul 2017), and because
the warning didn't mention the word "deprecated", we never actually
remembered to document it as such. But the warning has been around
long enough that I don't see prolonging it another two releases.

A number of deprecated QMP arguments and results were missed in commit
eb22aeca65 "docs: document deprecation policy & deprecated features in
appendix" (v2.10.0):
* Commit b33945cfff "block: Accept device model name for
blockdev-open/close-tray" (v2.8.0) deprecated blockdev-open-tray,
blockdev-close-tray argument @device.
* Commit fbe2d8163e "block: Accept device model name for eject"
(v2.8.0) deprecated eject argument @device.
* Commit 70e2cb3bd7 "block: Accept device model name for
blockdev-change-medium" (v2.8.0) deprecated blockdev-change-medium
argument @device.
* Commit 7a9877a026 "block: Accept device model name for
block_set_io_throttle" (v2.8.0) deprecated block_set_io_throttle
argument @device.
* Commit c01c214b69 "block: remove all encryption handling APIs"
(v2.10.0) deprecated query-named-block-nodes result
@encryption_key_missing and query-block result @inserted member
@encryption_key_missing.
* Commit c42e8742f5 "block: Use JSON null instead of "" to disable
backing file" (v2.10.0) deprecated blockdev-add empty string
argument @backing.
Since then, we missed a few more:
* Commit 3c605f4074 "commit: Add top-node/base-node options" (v3.1.0)
deprecated block-commit arguments @base and @top.
* Commit 4db6ceb0b5 "block/dirty-bitmap: add recording and busy
properties" (v4.0.0) deprecated query-named-block-nodes result
@dirty-bitmaps member @status, not just query-block.
Make up for all that.

Server class POWER CPUs have a "compat" property, which was obsoleted
by commit 7843c0d60d and replaced by a "max-cpu-compat" property on the
pseries machine type. A hack was introduced so that passing "compat" to
-cpu would still produce the desired effect, for the sake of backward
compatibility : it strips the "compat" option from the CPU properties
and applies internally it to the pseries machine. The accessors of the
"compat" property were updated to do nothing but warn the user about the
deprecated status when doing something like:
$ qemu-system-ppc64 -global POWER9-family-powerpc64-cpu.compat=power9
qemu-system-ppc64: warning: CPU 'compat' property is deprecated and has no
effect; use max-cpu-compat machine property instead
This was merged during the QEMU 2.10 timeframe, a few weeks before we
formalized our deprecation process. As a consequence, the "compat"
property fell through the cracks and was never listed in the officialy
deprecated features.
We are now eight QEMU versions later, it is largely time to mention it
in qemu-deprecated.texi. Also, since -global XXX-powerpc64-cpu.compat=
has been emitting warnings since QEMU 2.10 and the usual way of setting
CPU properties is with -cpu, completely remove the "compat" property.
Keep the hack so that -cpu XXX,compat= stays functional some more time,
as required by our deprecation process.
The now empty powerpc_servercpu_properties[] list which was introduced
for "compat" and never had any other use is removed on the way. We can
re-add it in the future if the need for a server class POWER CPU specific
property arises again.

It's been deprecated since QEMU v3.1.0. Time to finally remove it now.

Reworked Thomas's deprecated.texi to the rst
Mapping object-add to the command line as is doesn't result in nice
syntax because of the nesting introduced with 'props'. This becomes
nicer and more consistent with device_add and netdev_add when we accept
properties for the object on the top level instead.
'props' is still accepted after this patch, but marked as deprecated.

We put the whole of this document into the system manual, though
technically a few parts of it apply to qemu-img or qemu-nbd which are
otherwise documented in tools/.
We only make formatting fixes, except for one use of 'appendix' which
we change to 'section' because this isn't an appendix in the Sphinx
manual.
