Package: qemu Version: 1:2.8+dfsg-7 Severity: normal Hi, this is some sort of continuation of bug 855378. I didn't want to close the old one without your ack, but on the same time I thought the thread was long enough to better start from scratch.
>From the old one I only carry the seccomp change. Further I think that most of our s390x enablement would suit you as well. I'll submit it the way we have it (which is behind a ubuntu: label), but if it works for you as well please feel free to take it for Debian as well. And finally due to other constraints I was forced to go ahead of Debian recently and released a 2.10 based qemu for Ubuntu. Out of that I have a set of changes that I suggest to you so you don't have to reimplement (adapting docs) or that we don't diverge (packaging of new binaries). - doc changes - packaging (not) new bins On the new binaries for now I chose for now to not package them as they can mature a while longer and nobody asked for them - and to admit it is easier to take them the way you package them at some point instead of the risk to do it "differently" and converging again. All that said as an intro since things are now released in Artful there is a branch "origin/ubuntu-artful-2.10" where I'll continue as needed for artful. But for the contributions here I wanted to make it as consumable for you as possible - since you haven't a 2.10 yet I rebased onto a fictitious debian/2.10-0 and rebased all changes on these. I made that available in branch "origin/paelzer-2.10-for-debian" that we can delete later on. Finally I tried to reach you and Serge how to make an "official" Debian qmeu orig tarball - I ended up with: ./debian/get-orig-source.sh 2.10.0+dfsg-0 mv qemu_2.10.0+dfsg.orig.tar.xz qemu_2.10+dfsg.orig.tar.xz If that is "ok" you might want to take [1] for your 2.10 upload if you do one at some point. Changes for discussion/consideration: #1 Adaptions to debian/patches needed for 2.10 99e4cde7 debian-patches: drop patches being upstream now c4e4912d debian-patches: adapt 02_kfreebsd.patch to upstream change The second is close to dropping as well, it might not be an option to you, but since I lacked the old context and kfreebsd test env that did it for me - at least the comments I added might help you. #2 s390x support 6cab0b3 s390x: Create qemu-system-s390x package c28a907 s390x: Include s390-ccw.img firmware 1753078 s390x: Enable numa support for s390x #3 ppc64 additions 25c99de ppc64[le]: provide symlink matching arch name 57b123e d/control-in: Enable seccomp for ppc64el #4 other arch changes 2451f02 d/control-in: Disable x32 architecture a35c0de d/rules: or32 is now named or1k (since 4a09d0bb) #5 file names / docs changed 867f5a6 d/qemu-system-common.docs: new paths since ac06724a 5349ca1 d/qemu-system-common.install: qmp-commands.txt got replaced 60db29a d/qemu-system-common.docs: new path live-block-operations.rst 5d127b4 d/qemu-system-common.docs: adapt q35 config paths since 9ca019c1 c9092a2 Add new generated docs e45d166 Ignore further formats of docs we already install #6 do not package nios2/hppa yet f9649f3 explicitly do not install nios2/hppa until further stablized Looking forward to a great discussion as last time and changes getting accepted as applicable.
