--allowed_tablet_types strings Specifies the tablet types this vtgate is allowed to route queries to. Should be provided as a comma-separated set of tablet types.
--alsologtostderr log to standard error as well as files
--buffer_drain_concurrency int Maximum number of requests retried simultaneously. More concurrency will increase the load on the PRIMARY vttablet when draining the buffer. (default 1)
--buffer_implementation string Allowed values: healthcheck (legacy implementation), keyspace_events (default) (default "keyspace_events")
--buffer_implementation string DEPRECATED: will be deleted in Vitess 19 (default "deprecated")
--buffer_keyspace_shards string If not empty, limit buffering to these entries (comma separated). Entry format: keyspace or keyspace/shard. Requires --enable_buffer=true.
--buffer_max_failover_duration duration Stop buffering completely if a failover takes longer than this duration. (default 20s)
--buffer_min_time_between_failovers duration Minimum time between the end of a failover and the start of the next one (tracked per shard). Faster consecutive failovers will not trigger buffering. (default 1m0s)

The way to deprecate a flag is to add a line like

	fs.MarkDeprecated("throttle_threshold", "Replication lag threshold for default lag throttling")

Then you can delete the var completely, and the flag disappears from the help text. See #13246 for example

Well, I pointed you to the wrong example. It has to be something like this

	fs.Bool("use_super_read_only", true, "Set super_read_only flag when performing planned failover.")
	fs.MarkDeprecated("use_super_read_only", "From v17 onwards MySQL server will always try to start with super_read_only=ON")

So, you can't delete the original line, you just add the new one.
Incidentally, it was done incorrectly for throttler flags in #13246 and needs to be fixed.
This is why tests are failing. vtgate doesn't start because it is being provided the --buffer_implementation flag and the flag has been completely removed.

Thanks, hope I finally got it right ;-)

I haven't removed the flag from the buffering tests since they helped point out the incorrect implementation. We will remove it in v19 when we will remove the flag entirely.

That makes perfect sense. That is in fact the only way to make sure we don't break flags on deprecation.

fs.DurationVar(&initialTabletTimeout, "gateway_initial_tablet_timeout", 30*time.Second, "At startup, the tabletGateway will wait up to this duration to get at least one tablet per keyspace/shard/tablet type")
fs.IntVar(&retryCount, "retry-count", 2, "retry count")

Earlier implementation used to pass nil as the topo server and through some side effect it worked. However after removing the health check code this no longer worked. Hence here, and in other places below, we are passing an instance of the test (fake) topo server.
