[PATCH 1/2] target/ppc/cpu-models: Rename power5+ and power7+ for new QOM naming rules

Thomas Huth posted 2 patches 2 years ago
There is a newer version of this series
[PATCH 1/2] target/ppc/cpu-models: Rename power5+ and power7+ for new QOM naming rules
Posted by Thomas Huth 2 years ago 
The character "+" is now forbidden in QOM device names (see commit
b447378e1217 - "Limit type names to alphanumerical and some few special
characters"). For the "power5+" and "power7+" CPU names, there is
currently a hack in type_name_is_valid() to still allow them for
compatibility reasons. However, there is a much nicer solution for this:
Simply use aliases! This way we can still support the old names without
the need for the ugly hack in type_name_is_valid().

Will using Power5x, Power7x be a better naming than using 'plus' suffix ?

Otherwise,

The "x" looks like a placeholder to me, so it could be confused with 
power50, power51, power52, etc. ...?
But actually, I was thinking about using "power5p" and "power7p" first, so 
if the whole "plus" looks too long for you, would "p" be an option instead?

Hmm .. I would certainly vote for 'p' over 'plus'.

We also use 'p' for '+' / 'plus' on ARM Raspberry Pi:

$ qemu-system-aarch64 -M help | grep -F raspi
raspi0               Raspberry Pi Zero (revision 1.2)
raspi1ap             Raspberry Pi A+ (revision 1.1)
raspi2b              Raspberry Pi 2B (revision 1.1)
raspi3ap             Raspberry Pi 3A+ (revision 1.0)
raspi3b              Raspberry Pi 3B (revision 1.2)
