Subject: [PULL 03/12] docs/system/target-sparc: Improve the Sparc documentation
Date: Mon, 6 May 2024 12:44:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240506114451.331311-4-mark.cave-ayland@ilande.co.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240506114451.331311-1-mark.cave-ayland@ilande.co.uk>
From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>
Add some words about how to enable or disable boolean features,
and remove the note about a Linux kernel being available on the
QEMU website (they have been removed long ago already), and the
note about NetBSD and OpenBSD still having issues (they should
work fine nowadays).
Fixes: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2141
