[Xen-devel] [PATCH 3/3] docs: Remove redundant qemu-xen-security document

[George Dunlap <george.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx>]

All this information is now covered in SUPPORT.md.

Most of the emulated hardware is obvious a couple of the items are
worth pointing out specifically.

"xen_disk" is listed under "Blkback"

"...the PCI host bridge and the PIIX3 chipset...": This statement is
redundant -- the PCI host bridge is a part of the piix3 chipset, which
is listed as supported.

xenfb: The "graphics" side of "xenfb" is listed under "PV Framebuffer
(backend)", and the "input" side of "xenfb" (including both keyboard
and mouse) is listed under "PV Keyboard (backend)".

Backing storage image format is listed in the "Blkback" section.

-qemu-xen (git://xenbits.xen.org/qemu-xen.git) is only supported for
-security fixes when used together with the Xen hypervisor and only with
-a subset of all the possible QEMU emulators. Specifically:
-
-- network: e1000, rtl8139, virtio-net
-- storage: piix3 ide, ahci, xen_disk
-- backing storage image format: raw, qcow, qcow2, vhd
-- graphics: cirris-vga, stdvga and xenfb
-- audio: sb16, es1370, ac97
-- input: Xen PV keyboard and mouse (part of xenfb), USB and PS/2
-         keyboard and mouse
-- serial cards: UART 16550A
-
-Core components, such as the PCI host bridge and the PIIX3 chipset, are
-supported. All devices of one the above classes, which are not explicitly
-mentioned, are not supported. For example the ne2000 network card is not
-supported. 
-
-If you think that a specific emulated device should be supported, please
-contact the QEMU UPSTREAM maintainer and the Xen Security Team
-(security@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx).
