38Commit changes to the disk images (if -snapshot is used) or backing files.
39If the backing file is smaller than the snapshot, then the backing file will be
40resized to be the same size as the snapshot.  If the snapshot is smaller than
41the backing file, the backing file will not be truncated.  If you want the
42backing file to match the size of the smaller snapshot, you can safely truncate
43it yourself once the commit operation successfully completes.

73VM initialization using configuration data provided on the command line
74and via the QMP monitor during the preconfig state. The command is only

92but should be used with extreme caution.  Note that this command only
93resizes image files, it can not resize block devices like LVM volumes.

208Remove host block device.  The result is that guest generated IO is no longer
209submitted against the host device underlying the disk.  Once a drive has
210been deleted, the QEMU Block layer returns -EIO which results in IO
211errors in the guest for applications that are reading/writing to the device.
212These errors are always reported to the guest, regardless of the drive's error
213actions (drive options rerror, werror).

504@var{fmt} is a format which tells the command how to format the
505data. Its syntax is: @option{/@{count@}@{format@}@{size@}}
506
507@table @var
508@item count
509is the number of items to be dumped.
510
511@item format
512can be x (hex), d (signed decimal), u (unsigned decimal), o (octal),
513c (char) or i (asm instruction).
514
515@item size
516can be b (8 bits), h (16 bits), w (32 bits) or g (64 bits). On x86,
517@code{h} or @code{w} can be specified with the @code{i} format to
518respectively select 16 or 32 bit code instruction size.
