Subject: [PULL 26/31] numa: forbid '-numa node, mem' for 5.1 and newer machine types
Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2020 06:50:43 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200624105048.375353-26-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200624104917.375143-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>

From: Igor Mammedov <imammedo@redhat.com>

Deprecation period is run out and it's a time to flip the switch
introduced by cd5ff8333a.  Disable legacy option for new machine
types (since 5.1) and amend documentation.

'-numa node,memdev' shall be used instead of disabled option
with new machine types.
