Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] Fix the -accel parameter and the documentation for 'hax'
Date: Thu,  4 May 2017 07:24:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1493875481-16388-1-git-send-email-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)

Since 'hax' is a possible accelerator nowadays, too, the '-accel'
option should support it and we should mention this accelerator
in the documentation, too.

Signed-off-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>
---
 v2:
 - Use qemu_opt_set() instead of qemu_opts_parse_noisily()
 - Improve the documentation of the -accel option
