[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 3/3] Use help sub-sections to create sub-help opt


From: Laurent Vivier
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 3/3] Use help sub-sections to create sub-help options
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2015 21:30:05 +0200

As '-help' output is 400 lines long it is not easy
to find information, but generally we know from
which area we want the information.

As sections already exist in the help description,
add some options to only display the wanted section.

'-help' now can take an optional parameter, which is
a comma separated list of sections to display:

    standard  display standard options
    block     display block options
    usb       display usb options
    display   display display options
    machine   display machine options
    network   display network options
    character display character options
    url       display url options
    bt        display bt options
    tpm       display tpm options
    kernel    display kernel options
    expert    display expert options
    object    display object options

'-help' without option displays all help sections.

Example:

    $ x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -help kernel,usb
    QEMU emulator version 2.4.50, Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard
    usage: qemu-system-x86_64 [options] [disk_image]

    'disk_image' is a raw hard disk image for IDE hard disk 0

    Linux/Multiboot boot specific:
    -kernel bzImage use 'bzImage' as kernel image
    -append cmdline use 'cmdline' as kernel command line
    -initrd file    use 'file' as initial ram disk
    -dtb    file    use 'file' as device tree image

    USB options:
    -usb            enable the USB driver (will be the default soon)
    -usbdevice name add the host or guest USB device 'name'
