The interface is ambiguous, as "no" is valid file name. So,
using "no" as a special value to disable script is deprecated.
Use an empty string ("script=" / "downscript=") instead.

In a future version, "no" will be treated as a plain file name, just
like any other non-empty value.

Document the deprecation in docs/about/deprecated.rst, qapi/net.json,
and qemu-options.hx. Update other docs to use empty string instead of
"no". Add a warning.

net_init_tap() could pass the parameter name for a simpler error
message.  Probably not worth the bother.

          return true;
      }

In net_init_tap_one():

            qemu_set_info_str(&s->nc, "ifname=%s,script=%s,downscript=%s", 
ifname,
                              script ?: "no", downscript ?: "no");

This sets nc->info_str, which is shown by "info network".  Should we
replace "no" by ""?



Agree, will do.
