More precisely, the "x-file-slots" count is bumped for all machine types
that:
(a) use fw_cfg, and
(b) are not versioned (hence migration is not expected to work for them
across QEMU releases anyway), or have version 2.9.
This affects machine types implemented in the following source files:
- "hw/arm/virt.c". The "virt-*" machine type is versioned, and the <= 2.8
versions already depend on HW_COMPAT_2_8 (see commit e353aac51b).
Therefore adding the "x-file-slots" compat values to HW_COMPAT_2_8
suffices.
- "hw/i386/pc.c". The "pc-i440fx-*" (including "pc-*") and "pc-q35-*"
machine types are versioned. Modifying HW_COMPAT_2_8 is sufficient here
too (see commit "pc: Add 2.9 machine-types"). The "isapc" machtype is
not versioned. The "xenfv" machine type, which uses fw_cfg for direct
kernel booting, is also not versioned.
- "hw/ppc/mac_newworld.c". The "mac99" machine type is not versioned.
- "hw/ppc/mac_oldworld.c". The "g3beige" machine type is not versioned.
- "hw/sparc/sun4m.c". None of the 9 machine types defined in this file
appear versioned.
- "hw/sparc64/sun4u.c". None of the 3 machine types defined in this file
appear versioned.
