kvm tools: Tune the command-line option
With this patch we can have -c --cpus -m --mem -d --disk -k --kernel -i --initrd which is more consistent and easy to remember. The patch also frees up -s, -g option. Ingo suggestied ''' The debug options should probably be concentrated under a --debug option anyway, to allow things like: --debug single-step,ioport Even if the debug options are kept they should be streamlined along the same pattern: >> --debug-single-step Enable single stepping >> --debug-ioport Enable ioport debugging But having a --debug option that recognizes all the debug flags would be nicer. It would also allow future enhancements to group debug features, like: --debug all # turn on everything and the kitchen sink for early hangs --debug all,-single-step # turn on everything except single-step debugging --debug nonverbose # turn on all non-noisy debug options we have Maybe even: --debug memcheck ... could run kvm under valgrind automatically - that way we can hide any secondary tool complexities from the user and turn those tools into simple debug options :-) ''' Let's do this --debug option consolidation later.
