Description Miroslav Rezanina 2022-03-16 14:17:08 UTC
With rebase to QEMU 7.0.0 we have to update compatibility bits for qemu-kvm package so we keep old machine types stable.

Please add necessary changes to ensure all machine types are compatible with previous versions.

Comment 5 Miroslav Rezanina 2022-04-08 09:49:33 UTC
Hi Dave, when we can expect compat bits checked/handled - we are almost at release time and need this changes for rebase to continue.

Comment 6 Dr. David Alan Gilbert 2022-04-12 11:57:50 UTC
Yep, I can look at this soon.

Comment 7 Yanan Fu 2022-04-21 04:49:53 UTC
QE bot(pre verify): Set 'Verified:Tested,SanityOnly' as gating/tier1 test pass.

Comment 12 Min Deng 2022-05-18 05:29:03 UTC
The regression test of stable guest abi passed
Machine type are following as below.
