Subject: [Qemu-trivial] [PATCH] qemu-options.hx: improve -numa doc
Date: Fri, 14 Feb 2014 14:34:08 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140214143408.4b34d2c7@redhat.com> (raw)

The -numa option documentation in qemu's manpage lacks the command-line
options and some information regarding how it relates to options -m and
-smp. This commit fills in the missing text.
