Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PULL 006/103] vl.c: extend -m option to support options for memory hotplug
Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2014 20:36:34 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1403021756-15960-7-git-send-email-mst@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1403021756-15960-1-git-send-email-mst@redhat.com>
From: Igor Mammedov <imammedo@redhat.com>
Add following parameters:
"slots" - total number of hotplug memory slots
"maxmem" - maximum possible memory
"slots" and "maxmem" should go in pair and "maxmem" should be greater
than "mem" for memory hotplug to be enabled.
