[Kenneth Van Alstyne]

This issue is still marked as unresolved almost 6 months later. Has the
submodule been updated and merged into QEMU yet?

Title:
  Cirrus graphics results in monochrome colour depth at 640x480
  resolution

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  Recently we upgraded to a distribution that bundled QEMU 4.2.0.  We
  were previously running on QEMU 3.0.0.  When booting Windows 10 VMs on
  x86_64, users experienced slow, monochrome graphics and the resolution
  was restricted to 640x480.  Reverting to the prior vgabios-cirrus.bin
  from the prior source tarball remediated the issue.

  An example QEMU command line is below, if needed:
  /bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -vnc 0.0.0.0:100 -device 
cirrus-vga,id=video0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x2  -machine 
pc-i440fx-4.2,accel=kvm,usb=off,dump-guest-core=off -cpu qemu64 -m 2048 
-overcommit mem-lock=off -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -no-user-config 
-nodefaults -hda test.raw &
