Dear board code maintainers, This is a (rather late) follow-up to the last QEMU summit. Minutes[*]:
* Deprecating unmaintained features (devices, targets, backends) in QEMU QEMU has a mechanism to deprecate features but there remains a lot of old unmaintained code. Refactoring is hindered by untested legacy code, so there is a desire to deprecate unmaintained features more often. [...] We should require at least a minimal test for each board; if nobody cares enough to come up with one, that board should be deprecated. [...] Also see the qemu-devel discussion about deprecating code: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-10/msg05828.html. That's a link to "Minutes of KVM Forum BoF on deprecating stuff". Quote: * One obvious class of candidates for removal is machines we don't know how to boot, or can't boot, say because we lack required firmware and/or OS. Of course, "can boot" should be an automated test. As a first step towards that, we should at least document how to boot each machine. We're going to ask machine maintainers to do that. Let's get going on this. I gathered the machine types, mapped them to source files, which I fed to get_maintainer.pl. Results are appended. If you're cc'ed, MAINTAINERS fingers you for at least one machine type's source file. Please tell us for all of them how to to a "meaningful" boot test. For now, what's "meaningful" is entirely up to you. Booting Linux certainly is. Make sure to include a complete QEMU command line. If your QEMU command line requires resources beyond the QEMU source tree and what we build from it, please detail them, and provide download URLs as far as possible. Goals for this exercise: * Gather information we need to cover more machines in our automated testing.

Thanks in advance for your help!
