The distinction between short life and long life Linux distributions
turned out to be redundant. They can both be covered in a simple way
by noting support will target the current release, and the previous
release for a period of two years or until its EOL. This rule can also
apply to the other UNIX based distros, leaving only Windows needing a
different set of rules.
This also clarifies that Debian LTS is out of scope, because the LTS
support is provided by a separate group from the main Debian maintainer
team.

The -enable-fips option was added a long time ago to prevent the use of
single DES when VNC when FIPS mode is enabled. It should never have been
added, because apps are supposed to unconditionally honour FIPS mode
based on the '/proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled' file contents.
In addition there is more to achieving FIPS compliance than merely
blocking use of certain algorithms. Those algorithms which are used
need to perform self-tests at runtime.
QEMU's built-in cryptography provider has no support for self-tests,
and neither does the nettle library.
If QEMU is required to be used in a FIPS enabled host, then it must be
built with the libgcrypt library enabled, which will unconditionally
enforce FIPS compliance in any algorithm usage.
Thus there is no need to keep either the -enable-fips option in QEMU, or
QEMU's internal FIPS checking methods.

Options such as "server" or "nowait", that are commonly found in -chardev,
are sugar for "server=on" and "wait=off". This is quite surprising and
also does not have any notion of typing attached. It is even possible to
do "-device e1000,noid" and get a device with "id=off".
Deprecate it and print a warning when it is encountered. In general,
this short form for boolean options only seems to be in wide use for
-chardev and -spice.

The HMP command \"change vnc TARGET\" is messy:
- it takes an ugly shortcut to determine if the option has an "id",
with incorrect results if "id=" is not preceded by an unescaped
comma.
- it deletes the existing QemuOpts and does not try to rollback
if the parsing fails (which is not causing problems, but only due to
how VNC options are parsed)
- because it uses the same parsing function as "-vnc", it forces
the latter to not support "-vnc help".
On top of this, it uses a deprecated QMP command, thus getting in
the way of removing the QMP command. Since the usecase for the
command is not clear, just remove it and send "change vnc password"
directly to the QMP "change-vnc-password" command.

When we first converted our documentation to Sphinx, we split it into
multiple manuals (system, interop, tools, etc), which are all built
separately. The primary driver for this was wanting to be able to
avoid shipping the 'devel' manual to end-users. However, this is
working against the grain of the way Sphinx wants to be used and
causes some annoyances:
* Cross-references between documents become much harder or
possibly impossible
* There is no single index to the whole documentation
* Within one manual there's no links or table-of-contents info
that lets you easily navigate to the others
* The devel manual doesn't get published on the QEMU website
(it would be nice to able to refer to it there)
Merely hiding our developer documentation from end users seems like
it's not enough benefit for these costs. Combine all the
documentation into a single manual (the same way that the readthedocs
site builds it) and install the whole thing. The previous manual
divisions remain as the new top level sections in the manual.
* The per-manual conf.py files are no longer needed
* The man_pages[] specifications previously in each per-manual
conf.py move to the top level conf.py
* docs/meson.build logic is simplified as we now only need to run
Sphinx once for the HTML and then once for the manpages5B
* The old index.html.in that produced the top-level page with
links to each manual is no longer needed
Unfortunately this means that we now have to build the HTML
documentation into docs/manual in the build tree rather than directly
into docs/; otherwise it is too awkward to ensure we install only the
built manual and not also the dependency info, stamp file, etc. The
manual still ends up in the same place in the final installed
directory, but anybody who was consulting documentation from within
the build tree will have to adjust where they're looking.

The PWM module is part of NPCM7XX module. Each NPCM7XX module has two
identical PWM modules. Each module contains 4 PWM entries. Each PWM has
two outputs: frequency and duty_cycle. Both are computed using inputs
from software side.
This module does not model detail pulse signals since it is expensive.
It also does not model interrupts and watchdogs that are dependant on
the detail models. The interfaces for these are left in the module so
that anyone in need for these functionalities can implement on their
own.
The user can read the duty cycle and frequency using qom-get command.

This thread from a little over a year ago:
http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/sheepdog/2019-March/thread.html
states that sheepdog is no longer actively developed. The only mentioned
users are some companies who are said to have it for legacy reasons with
plans to replace it by Ceph. There is talk about cutting out existing
features to turn it into a simple demo of how to write a distributed
block service. There is no evidence of anyone working on that idea:
https://github.com/sheepdog/sheepdog/commits/master
No real commits to git since Jan 2018, and before then just some minor
technical debt cleanup.
There is essentially no activity on the mailing list aside from
patches to QEMU that get CC'd due to our MAINTAINERS entry.
Fedora packages for sheepdog failed to build from upstream source
because of the more strict linker that no longer merges duplicate
global symbols. Fedora patches it to add the missing "extern"
annotations and presumably other distros do to, but upstream source
remains broken.
There is only basic compile testing, no functional testing of the
driver.
Since there are no build pre-requisites the sheepdog driver is currently
enabled unconditionally. This would result in configure issuing a
deprecation warning by default for all users. Thus the configure default
is changed to disable it, requiring users to pass --enable-sheepdog to
build the driver.
