[Qemu-devel] Status of q35-lite?

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

Hi Chao,
Last year there was an effort to make "built-in" hardware optional so
that VMs can be launched with a minimal set of devices.  You made SATA,
PIT, and SMBus optional.

What is the current status of this work?

Are there more devices that could benefit from an optional switch?

For reference, here is the discussion that kicked of the effort to make
some core devices optional:
"[RFC 0/9] Introduce light weight PC platform pc-lite"
