-Compression method fails too much.  Too many races.  We are going to
-remove it if nobody fixes it.  For starters, migration-test
-compression tests are disabled because they fail randomly.  If you need
-compression, use multifd compression methods.
+The ``fd:`` URI can currently provide a file descriptor that
+references either a socket or a plain file. These are two different
+types of migration. In order to reduce ambiguity, the ``fd:`` URI
+usage of providing a file descriptor to a plain file has been
+deprecated in favor of explicitly using the ``file:`` URI with the
+file descriptor being passed as an ``fdset``. Refer to the ``add-fd``
+command documentation for details on the ``fdset`` usage.
