| 216Host Architectures 217------------------ 218 219BE MIPS (since 7.2) 220''''''''''''''''''' 221 222As Debian 10 ("Buster") moved into LTS the big endian 32 bit version of 223MIPS moved out of support making it hard to maintain our 224cross-compilation CI tests of the architecture. As we no longer have 225CI coverage support may bitrot away before the deprecation process 226completes. The little endian variants of MIPS (both 32 and 64 bit) are 227still a supported host architecture. 228 |

The short form ``-b`` still stays 383the same and thus is the preferred way for scripts that should run with 384both, older and future versions of QEMU. 385 386``blacklist`` config file option (since 7.2) 387'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' 388 389The ``blacklist`` config file option has been renamed to ``block-rpcs`` 390(to be in sync with the renaming of the corresponding command line 391option). | |
