I see PPC is defined in target/ppc/Kconfig so I think these mark the

I've seen people do this on x86_64 host
Since this patch does:
LINUX && PCI && (... X86_64 ...)
these users won't see any change.
This is wrong---clearly this patch was never tested on the 32-bit platforms
where it was supposed to have an effect.
euh it was.
With this patch, on 32-bit and 64-bit host systems :
# build/qemu-system-i386 -device vfio-pci,?
# qemu-system-i386: -device vfio-pci,?: Device 'vfio-pci' not found
Same for qemu-system-ppc and qemu-system-arm
What I am doing wrong ?
These QEMU targets aren't deprecated, compiling QEMU on 32 bit hosts is.
But you can still use qemu-system-i386 and qemu-system-ppc on 64 bit
hosts and vfio-pci works with these so it should not be disabled when
building these QEMU targets. I think you meant to do something else not
what this patch does.
