Re: [RFC PATCH 1/3] qemu: capabilities: Introduce QEMU_CAPS_COMPAT_DEPRECATED

The capability is asserted if qemu supports the -compat deprecated-input= and deprecated-output= settings to control what should happen if deprecated fields are used in QMP. This will be used for a developer-oriented setting which will aid us in catching use of deprecated settings sooner. --- src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c | 4 ++++ src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h | 1 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_5.1.0.x86_64.xml | 1 + 3 files changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c b/src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c index 47f88481c8..cad65cca65 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c @@ -580,6 +580,7 @@ VIR_ENUM_IMPL(virQEMUCaps, "machine.pseries.cap-sbbc", "machine.pseries.cap-ibs", "tcg", + "compat-deprecated" );
