However, we'll need to keep it around for a little longer, until an updated version of qemu reaches distributions, and, after that, still give a bit of time to usersIn addition to QEMU, we also need libvirt to support passt natively. I believe there's ongoing work for that as well,but until that lands (and makes its way to distros) projects like KubeVirt are going to be relying on qrap.Right, it probably makes no sense to force KubeVirt to adopt this in two steps (passing qemu specific options first, and then switch to the new configuration model in libvirt), so we'll need to wait for that as well. -- Stefano
