Subject: [PATCH v2] os-posix: Allow 'chroot' via '-run-with' and deprecate the old '-chroot' option
Date: Mon,  3 Jul 2023 09:44:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230703074447.17044-1-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)

We recently introduced "-run-with" for options that influence the
runtime behavior of QEMU. This option has the big advantage that it
can group related options (so that it is easier for the users to spot
them) and that the options become introspectable via QMP this way.
So let's start moving more switches into this option group, starting
with "-chroot" now.

 v2: Renamed "register_teardown" to "register_runwith" (thanks Michael!)
