Hi All, Any comments on this idea? Recall the motivation for this change is to subsequently use the image format settings to request mapped-ram. Regards, Jim On 8/16/24 16:25, Jim Fehlig wrote:
The current documentation of the various foo_image_format settings in qemu.conf subtly implies they are only used for specifying compression. Patch1 of this small series attempts to clarify and improve the description of the settings. It defines image format as a way to specify the desired layout of guest memory blocks on disk.
Patch2 changes the use of 'compressed' with 'format' throughout the code, removing implication that format == compressed.
V2: Replace more uses of 'compressed' with 'format' in patch2
