Here are two paches I have been carrying in our qemu for a long time.
Please consider adding them for qemu-4.2.0

Make O flag require P

Can you send those upstream as well?

> Can you send those upstream as well?

I can but it will take time, if upstream will take them, until they
are in a release though.
My question is, will you take them even if upstream don't?

Another thing, have you considered making F flag default?
That flag make QEMU user so much easier to use.

I think the "Remove ugly debug in console" can be removed now.
Looks like that debug code is not active anymore.

W.r.t "Make O flag require P", I sent it upstream and there is
some other patches trying to handle P flag but no solution yet

Can you link your submission in this bug? (if it's visible in email archives)

Didn't find it in using Googel but there is another competing impl:
  https://patchew.org/QEMU/20191024153847.31815-1-laurent@vivier.eu/
connected to a kernel patch:
  https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1158151/

In any case, progress is slow upstream, one might have to push upstream a little
so what does Gentoo want to do meanwhile?

Using my patch + adding QEMU binfmt flags to OP will wil make thing just work.
Also adding F flags makes sense
Comment 8 Matthias Maier gentoo-dev 2020-03-13 17:07:14 UTC
I suggest we wait for upstream's response to the O flag require P patch.
