Re: [PATCH 0/7] bsd-user: remove bitrotted NetBSD and OpenBSD bsd-user support

[Warner Losh]

After consulting with Taylor Campbell, I'm going to hold off on this for now. He had some code to start to fix things, which I hope he can find time and energy to port over to the (more complete) qemu-bsd-user upstream so that there's one target for people working on the area that will eventually become what's in qemu-project's master branch.

I'll replace this series with some other changes that try to accomplish the same base goals.

The NetBSD and OpenBSD support in bsd-user hasn't built since before the meson
conversion. It's also out of sync with many of the recent changes in the
bsd-user fork and has just been removed there. Remove it from master for the
same reasons: it generates a number of false positives with grep and has
increasingly gotten in the way. The bsd-user fork code is much more advanced,
and even it doesn't compile and is out of date. Remove this from both
branches. If others wish to bring it up to speed, I'm happy to help them.
