Do you have a pointer for it? I couldn't > find it. it was http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-06/msg03847.html but there is another earlier proposal by Andreas to make CPU as DEVICE only for softmmu targets. So consensus wasn't reached yet.
If we are to to use global props creating CPU subclasses, we might have to make CPU as DEVICE for *-user target as well and pull in qdev deps into it. > All I remember (from a call 2 or 3 weeks ago) was that the conversion > was difficult because it would make *-user pull qdev, and that was > not a > trivial task. > > -- > Eduardo > > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
