- 6.0.0 qemu is about to be released. Add comments to the in-
package support documents (supported.<arch>.txt) about the new
deprecations as of that release as an early head's up for qemu
users. These deprecations include these command-line options:
-M option: kernel-irq-chip=off
-chardev tty
-chardev paraport
-enable-fips
-writeconfig
-spice password=string

- Include upstream patches designated as stable material and
reviewed for applicability to include here. NOTE that the
PIIX4 patch has migration implications: the change will also be
applied to the SLE-15-SP2 qemu, and a live migration from that
version to this SLE-15-SP3 qemu would require this patch to be
applied for a successful migration if PIIX4 southbridge is used
in the machine emulation (x86 i440fx)

- Add #!ForceMultiversion to qemu.spec:
+ As the spec file defines different Version: fiels for various
subpackages, we must instruct OBS to not ever reset the
checkin-counter, as it would by defalut on a version increase.
Resetting the version counter results in sub-packages reusing
their VERSION-RELEASE from the past (e.g. qemu-ipxe is version
1.0.0+, and upon checkin of a new qemu version, RELEASE is
reset to 1.1, thus again producing
qemu-ipxe-1.0.0+-1.1.noarch.rpm.

where a new qemu module, hw-s390x-virtio-gpu-ccw.so, and a
corresponding new qemu-hw-s390x-virtio-gpu-ccw subpackage, is
split out (this parallels the hw-display-virtio-gpu-pci.so module).
Split-provides file is also used to track this functionality
splitout. Both the packages supplying the above mentioned modules
now have a Requires on the qemu-hw-display-virtio-gpu package. It
is anticipated that this change is going in upstream as well, and
if done differently the plan is to update to the upstream
implementation if possible (bsc#1181103)

- Add additional inter-module package dependencies, to reflect the
current module dependencies (see qemu source file: util/module.c)
- As of v3.1.0 virt-manager, new VM's are created by default with
audio/sound enabled, so it's time to reflect the need, at least
in the spice case, by having spice-audio available when spice in
general is used (boo#1180210 boo#1181132)

- Convert qemu-kvm from a script to a symlink. This method of
invoking the QEMU emulator has been deprecated for some time,
but is still provided. It has as it's origins a version of QEMU
which had KVM acceleration enabled by default. In it's recent
incarnation it is a script which adds '-machine accel=kvm' to the
beginning of the list of command line options passed to the
emulator. This method collides with the now preferred method of
specifying acceleration options by using -accel. qemu-kvm is now
changed to simply be a symlink to the same QEMU binary which the
prior script exec'd. This new approach takes advantage of a built
in QEMU feature where if QEMU is invoked using a program name
ending in 'kvm', KVM emulation is enabled. This approach is
better in that it is more compatible with any other command line
option that may be added for specifying acceleration (not that
you should do that).
For those who have taken advantage of the fact that you can add
additional command line options to the qemu-kvm script, or doing
other things in that script you will just need to create an
alternate script "emulator" to achieve the same. It's possible
that there may be some very subtle behavioral difference in the
switch from a script to a symlink, but given that qemu-kvm is a
deprecated package, we're not going to worry about that.

- Update to v5.2.0: See http://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/5.2
Take note that ongoing feature deprecation is tracked at both
http://wiki.qemu-project.org/Features/LegacyRemoval and in
the deprecated.html file installed with the qemu package
Some noteworthy changes:
* Dropped system emulators: qemu-system-lm32, qemu-system-unicore32
* Dropped linux user emulator: qemu-ppc64abi32
* Added linux user emulator: qemu-extensaeb
* Unicore32 and lm32 guest support dropped
* New sub-packages (most due to ongoing modularization of QEMU):
qemu-audio-spice, qemu-hw-chardev-spice, qemu-hw-display-virtio-vga,
qemu-hw-display-virtio-gpu, qemu-hw-display-virtio-gpu-pci,
qemu-ui-spice-core, qemu-ui-opengl, qemu-ivshmem-tools
* x86: A new KVM feature which improves the handling of asynchronous page
faults is available with -cpu ...,kvm-async-pf-int (requires Linux 5.8)
* s390: More instructions emulated under TCG
* PowerPC: nvdimm= machine option now functions correctly; misc improvements
* ARM: new boards: mps2-an386 (Cortex-M4 based) and mps2-an500
(Cortex-M7 based), raspi3ap (the Pi 3 model A+), raspi0 (the Pi Zero)
and raspi1ap (the Pi A+)
* RISC-V: OpenSBI v0.8 included by default; Generic OpenSBI platform used
when no -bios argument is supplied; Support for NUMA sockets on Virt
and Spike Machines; Support for migrating machines; misc improvements
* Misc NVMe improvements
* The 'vhost-user-blk' export type has been added, allowing
qemu-storage-daemon to act as a vhost-user-blk device backend
* The SMBIOS OEM strings can now come from a file
* 9pfs - misc performance related improvements
* virtiofs - misc improvements
* migration: The default migration bandwidth has been increased to 1Gbps
(users are still encouraged to tune it to their own hardware); The new
'calc-dirty-rate' and 'query-dirty-rate' QMP commands can help determine
the likelihood of precopy migration success; TLS+multifd now supported
for higher bandwidth encrypted migration; misc minor features added
* Misc minor block features added
* Misc doc improvements
* qemu-microvm subpackage change: the bios-microvm.bin is now SeaBIOS based,
and the qboot based on is now qboot.rom
* elf2dmp is no longer part of qemu-tools (it was never intended to be
a packaged binary)
* Some subpackages which were 'Requires' are now 'Recommends', allowing for
a smaller qemu packaging footprint if needed
* Patches dropped (included in release tarball, unless otherwise noted):

- In spec file, where reasonable, switch BuildRequires: XXX-devel
to be pkgconfig(XXX') instead
- No longer disable link time optimization for qemu for x86. It looks like
either the build service, qemu code changes and/or the switch to meson
have resolved issues previously seen there. We still see problems for
other architectures however.
- For the record, the following issues reported for SUSE SLE15-SP2
are either fixed in this current package, or are otherwise no longer
an issue: bsc#1172384 bsc#1174386 bsc#1174641 bsc#1174863 bsc#1175370
bsc#1175441 bsc#1176494 CVE-2020-13361 CVE-2020-14364 CVE-2020-15863
CVE-2020-16092 CVE-2020-24352
and the following feature requests are satisfied by this package:
jsc#SLE-13689 jsc#SEL-13780 jsc#SLE-13840
- To be more accurate, and to align with other qemu packaging
practices, rename the qemu-s390 package to qemu-s390x. The old
name (in the rpm namespace) is provided with a "Provides"
directive, and an "Obsoletes" done against that name for prior
qemu versions, as is standard practice (boo#1177764 jsc#SLE-17060)
- Take this opportunity to remove some ancient Split-Provides
mechanisms which can't conceivably be needed any more:
qemu-block-curl provided: qemu:%_libdir/%name/block-curl.so
qemu-guest-agent provided: qemu:%_bindir/qemu-ga
qemu-tools provided: qemu:%_libexecdir/qemu-bridge-helper
- Disable linux-user 'ls' test on 32 bit arm. It's failing with
"Allocating guest commpage: Cannot allocate memory" error, which
we should hunt down, but for now we don't want it to prevent the
package from being built
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/854151
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/Virtualization/qemu?expand=0&rev=597
- A patch has been applied to virt-manager to handle qemu spice
related modules not being present, so undo the change from Sep
30, 2020. Once again qemu-hw-display-qxl and qemu-hw-usb-redirect
are Recommends and not Required by the qemu package
(boo#1157320 boo#1176517, boo#1178141)
- For jsc#SLE-11629, change qemu, qemu-tools, and qemu-guest-agent
to rely on system-user-qemu and system-group-kvm to provide now
static system UIDs and GID's for qemu user and group, and kvm
group. This will make guest migration more seamless for new
installations since there is no chance of having required ID's
differ in value.

- Note: As part of the "Close the Leap Gap" effort, it's been
decided that our SDL2 support in qemu is not worth trying
to maintain. Long ago SLE qemu stopped including SDL2 support and
now we will do the same for the openSUSE releases going forward.
Accordingly SDL2 options are now configured out, and the two sub-
packages which are SDL2 specific, namely qemu-audio-sdl and
qemu-ui-sdl, are no longer generated, and due to the rpm package
conflicts used for those packages, they will be uninstalled from
systems as qemu updates move forward
- Drop e2fsprogs-devel and libpcap-devel as BuildRequires packages.
They have not actually been needed to build qemu for a very long
time
- Add more forsplits files
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/843243
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/Virtualization/qemu?expand=0&rev=583
- In an effort to "Close the Leap Gap", remove use of is_opensuse
from the spec file, so that the same packages built for SLE can
be reused for Leap. Some sub-packages will not be included for
SLE which are included for Leap. They wil be provided in Package
Hub for SLE users as unsupported packages.
- Add infrastructure to do package splits when split-off package
isn't required and doesn't (otherwise) include any previously
installed files. This version of qemu has split out non-essential
functionality into loadable modules, as noted in Aug 20, 2020 log
entry, which describes the emergency Split-Provides. That approach
will be superseded by this planned approach, and those dummy doc
files will be removed in time
Here is the new mapping:
subpackage continuity file provided (files are dummies)

qemu-hw-usb-redirect /usr/share/qemu/forsplits/02
qemu-hw-usb-smartcard /usr/share/qemu/forsplits/03
- Fix path of qemu-pr-helper. It was a mistake to move it from
%_bindir to _libexecdir. In more recent qemu code it's been moved
back, so undo this mistake by providing it at the same location
as it has been all along
