Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] deprecate unneeded build options/support
Date: Wed,  4 Nov 2026 20:15:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104201506.4091374-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260602090847.905721-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com>

Having unnecessary build options just makes things confusing for
the user, and expands the set of potential builds. This set
deprecates 3 build options, including deprecating all HPET support,
and marks them for future removal.

---
v2: rather than always building HPET to remove the option, deprecate
    all HPET support, which will also allow option removal in future.

Bruce Richardson (3):
  build: deprecate kernel dir option
  build: deprecate standalone tests option
  build: deprecate HPET support
