[PATCH v3 4/4] add dump_memory_format in qemu.conf

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch is used to add dump_memory_format to qemu.conf and libvirt will use
it to specify the default format in which qemu dumps guest's memory. But when
"--compress" is specified with "virsh dump --memory-only", the format configured
by dump_memory_format will be overrided. dump_memory_format can one of elf,
kdump-zlib, kdump-lzo and kdump-snappy. And elf is the default value.
