More precisely, the "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 e353aac51b944). Therefore adding the "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. Cc: "Gabriel L. Somlo" <somlo@cmu.edu> Cc: "Michael S.
