Subject: [PATCH] docs/deprecated: Remove undeprecated SMP description
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2025 16:44:16 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251121084416.1031466-1-zhao1.liu@intel.com> (raw)
"Unsupported 'parameter=1' SMP configuration" was proposed to be
deprecated in the commit 54c4ea8f3ae6 ("hw/core/machine-smp: Deprecate
unsupported "parameter=1" SMP configurations").
But the related code was reverted later in the commit 9d7950edb0cd
("hw/core: allow parameter=1 for SMP topology on any machine").
Thus, this SMP behavior is still valid and is not actually deprecated.
Remove outdated document descriptions.
