Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.9] configure: Warn that the support for ia64 is going to be removed
Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2017 11:34:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1489746872-10327-1-git-send-email-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)
Access to an ia64 machine is hard to get these days, and we lack a
machine for continuous integration testing, so it is very likely
that we remove support for the ia64 TCG backend soon.
