Indeed: $ git log --committer='Michael Tokarev' commit 9a232487aab8a7640ff8853d7d8d7c27106b44f8 Date: Fri Apr 13 18:45:45 2018 +0200 So I think you are trying to commit obsolete information. Anyway, up to Michael to adjust. Thanks for rstifying the doc :) Phil.

I first just did a 1-1 conversion of the wiki, because I didn't want to mix content changes with the rST conversion patch for various reasons we both know. :-) If we don't hear from Michael on this, I'll let Peter/Laurent adjust the doc while pushing the patch.

That's wikis for you.... pages of obsolete information. Bad info is more likely to be noticed & updated if we have it in the qemu.git repo where most developers work ! Regards, Daniel
