It was motivated by comments received on the cpu model config file format. Commit dc9ca4ba27be4fe6a0284061b8f056c4364fb0d9 changed the behavior of "=" from assign to append. This patch preserves the ability to append to an option (however now via "+="), reverts "=" to its previous behavior, and allows both to interoperate. Signed-off-by: john cooper<address@hidden>This deviates from standard ini syntax which makes me a big uncomfortable with it. Gerd, do you have an opinion?
Also it the syntax change will break existing users of the append feature (host/guestfwd for slirp networking).
Any reason why you can't use the current append to avoid the overlong feature flag lines?
Another idea: One could reference other processors "base", then you can define a -- say -- Opteron_G3 as "Opteron_G2 features plus these".
cheers, Gerd
