From 7239c050e81ad4aad282f8d43848c14b3956838a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Huth Date: Tue, 20 Oct 2020 18:05:04 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Remove deprecated -no-kvm option The option has never been mentioned in our documentation, it's been deprecated since years, it's marked with QEMU_ARCH_I386 (which does 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 each year discussing whether it makes sense to keep this option as a nice suger or not... let's finally put an end on this and remove it.
