37Commit changes to the disk images (if -snapshot is used) or backing files.
38If the backing file is smaller than the snapshot, then the backing file will be
39resized to be the same size as the snapshot.  If the snapshot is smaller than
40the backing file, the backing file will not be truncated.  If you want the
41backing file to match the size of the smaller snapshot, you can safely truncate
42it yourself once the commit operation successfully completes.

188Remove host block device.  The result is that guest generated IO is no longer
189submitted against the host device underlying the disk.  Once a drive has
190been deleted, the QEMU Block layer returns -EIO which results in IO
191errors in the guest for applications that are reading/writing to the device.
192These errors are always reported to the guest, regardless of the drive's error
193actions (drive options rerror, werror).

461
462@table @var
463@item count
464is the number of items to be dumped.
465
466@item format
467can be x (hex), d (signed decimal), u (unsigned decimal), o (octal),
468c (char) or i (asm instruction).
469
470@item size
471can be b (8 bits), h (16 bits), w (32 bits) or g (64 bits). On x86,
472@code{h} or @code{w} can be specified with the @code{i} format to
473respectively select 16 or 32 bit code instruction size.
