I found this link doesn't mention "l3-cache", but it appears in libvirt's src/qemu/qemu_command.c. > Thus from libvirt's side 'page-per-vq' and 'l3-cache' will likely require > deprecation period. The rest except for CPU is fine to remove without > anything at least from our PoV. So I understand that the file qemu_command.c contains all the QEMU commands/properties/options used by libvirt, thereby in the future if one wants to remove other properties, he can just check that file, right?
