1 HXCOMM Use DEFHEADING() to define headings in both help text and rST.
2 HXCOMM Text between SRST and ERST is copied to the rST version and
3 HXCOMM discarded from C version.
4 HXCOMM DEF(command, args, callback, arg_string, help) is used to construct
5 HXCOMM monitor commands
6 HXCOMM HXCOMM can be used for comments, discarded from both rST and C.

32 ``commit``
33 Commit changes to the disk images (if -snapshot is used) or backing files.
34 If the backing file is smaller than the snapshot, then the backing file
35 will be resized to be the same size as the snapshot. If the snapshot is
36 smaller than the backing file, the backing file will not be truncated.
37 If you want the backing file to match the size of the smaller snapshot,
38 you can safely truncate it yourself once the commit operation successfully
39 completes.

65 ``exit_preconfig``
66 This command makes QEMU exit the preconfig state and proceed with
67 VM initialization using configuration data provided on the command line
68 and via the QMP monitor during the preconfig state. The command is only
69 available during the preconfig state (i.e. when the --preconfig command

82 ``block_resize``
83 Resize a block image while a guest is running. Usually requires guest
84 action to see the updated size. Resize to a lower size is supported,
85 but should be used with extreme caution. Note that this command only
86 resizes image files, it can not resize block devices like LVM volumes.

193 Remove host block device. The result is that guest generated IO is no longer
194 submitted against the host device underlying the disk. Once a drive has
195 been deleted, the QEMU Block layer returns -EIO which results in IO
196 errors in the guest for applications that are reading/writing to the device.

218 *format* is optional.
220 *read-only-mode* may be used to change the read-only status of the device.
221 It accepts the following values:
223 retain
224 Retains the current status; this is the default.
226 read-only
227 Makes the device read-only.
229 read-write
230 Makes the device writable.
232 ``change vnc`` *display*,\ *options*
233 Change the configuration of the VNC server. The valid syntax for *display*
234 and *options* are described at :ref:`sec_005finvocation`. eg::
236 (qemu) change vnc localhost:1
238 ``change vnc password`` [*password*]
240 Change the password associated with the VNC server. If the new password
241 is not supplied, the monitor will prompt for it to be entered. VNC

467 *count*
468 is the number of items to be dumped.
469 *format*
470 can be x (hex), d (signed decimal), u (unsigned decimal), o (octal),
471 c (char) or i (asm instruction).
472 *size*
473 can be b (8 bits), h (16 bits), w (32 bits) or g (64 bits). On x86,
474 ``h`` or ``w`` can be specified with the ``i`` format to
475 respectively select 16 or 32 bit code instruction size.
