[Qemu-devel] [RFC for-2.9 00/11] Move target-* CPU file into a target/ folder

2016-11-30 Thread Thomas Huth
We've currently got 18 architectures in QEMU, and thus 18 target-xxx folders in the root folder of the QEMU source tree. More architectures (e.g. RISC-V, AVR) are likely to be included soon, too, so the main folder of the QEMU sources slowly gets quite overcrowded with the target-xxx folders. Thus
