Subject: [PATCH 0/3] softmmu/vl: Deprecate old and crufty display options
Date: Tue,  6 Jul 2021 16:54:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210706145413.1449571-1-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)

-display sdl uses a hand-crafted parser in vl.c, which is quite ugly
since the other parts of -display have been QAPIfied already. A straight
conversion to QAPI is not advisable since the "alt_grab" and "ctrl_grab"
parameters are not the best solution anyway. So this patch series
introduces a new "grab-mod" parameter as replacement instead and then
deprecates the old and crufty options.

While we're at it, the third patch also suggests to deprecated the
old -sdl and -curses top-level options.

Thomas Huth (3):
  softmmu/vl: Add a "grab-mod" parameter to the -display sdl option
  softmmu/vl: Deprecate the old grab options
  softmmu/vl: Deprecate the -sdl and -curses option
