32 ``commit``
33 Commit changes to the disk images (if -snapshot is used) or backing files.
34 If the backing file is smaller than the snapshot, then the backing file
35 will be resized to be the same size as the snapshot. If the snapshot is
36 smaller than the backing file, the backing file will not be truncated.
37 If you want the backing file to match the size of the smaller snapshot,
38 you can safely truncate it yourself once the commit operation successfully
39 completes.

67 This command makes QEMU exit the preconfig state and proceed with
68 VM initialization using configuration data provided on the command line
69 and via the QMP monitor during the preconfig state. The command is only

202 Remove host block device. The result is that guest generated IO is no longer
203 submitted against the host device underlying the disk. Once a drive has
204 been deleted, the QEMU Block layer returns -EIO which results in IO
205 errors in the guest for applications that are reading/writing to the device.

492 *count*

494 *format*
495 can be x (hex), d (signed decimal), u (unsigned decimal), o (octal),
496 c (char) or i (asm instruction).
497 *size*
498 can be b (8 bits), h (16 bits), w (32 bits) or g (64 bits). On x86,
499 ``h`` or ``w`` can be specified with the ``i`` format to
500 respectively select 16 or 32 bit code instruction size.

1734 Set replay breakpoint at instruction count *icount*.
1735 Execution stops when the specified instruction is reached.
1736 There can be at most one breakpoint. When breakpoint is set, any prior
1737 one is removed. The breakpoint may be set only in replay mode and only
1738 "in the future", i.e. at instruction counts greater than the current one.
1739 The current instruction count can be observed with ``info replay``.
