[Qemu-devel] [PULL 18/18] qemu-doc: Update the deprecation information o


From: Jason Wang
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PULL 18/18] qemu-doc: Update the deprecation information of -tftp, -bootp, -redir and -smb
Date: Fri, 22 Dec 2017 10:15:37 +0800

From: Thomas Huth <address@hidden>

The information how to update the deprecated parameters was too scarce,
so that some people did not update to the new syntax yet. Provide some
more information to make sure that it is clear how to update from the
old syntax to the new one.
