Description Wei Huang (AMD) 2017-02-15 04:48:52 UTC
From RHELSA 7.3 to RHELSA 7.4, we are rebasing QEMU from 2.6 to 2.8. Many new devices were introduced and they need to be trimmed in order to create a consistent device list for compatibility reason:
  - dpcd (REMOVE)
  - i2c-ddc (REMOVE)
  - vhost-vsock-device (REMOVE, by x86 trimming code)
  - vhost-vsock-pci (REMOVE, by x86 trimming code)
  - virtio-crypto-device (REMOVE, by x86 trimming code)
  - virtio-crypto-pci (REMOVE, by x86 trimming code)
  - arm-gicv3 (KEEP)
  - arm-its-kvm (KEEP)
  - aux-to-i2c-bridge (REMOVE)
  - loader (REMOVE, by x86 trimming code)
  - or-irq (REMOVE, by x86 trimming code)
  - pl011 (KEEP)
  - pl011_luminary (KEEP)
  - qemu,register (REMOVE, by x86 trimming code)
  - vfio-pci-igd-lpc-bridge (REMOVE, by x86 trimming code)
  - xlnx.dpdma (REMOVE)
  - xlnx.v-dp (REMOVE)

We need to remove the device listed above with (REMOVE) behind it. Other devices to be removed in x86 trimming code can be found in BZ1392328.
