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.

66``exit_preconfig``
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
70  available during the preconfig state (i.e. when the --preconfig command
71  line option was in use).

86  Resize a block image while a guest is running.  Usually requires guest
87  action to see the updated size.  Resize to a lower size is supported,
88  but should be used with extreme caution.  Note that this command only
89  resizes image files, it can not resize block devices like LVM volumes.

201``drive_del`` *device*
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.
206  These errors are always reported to the guest, regardless of the drive's error
207  actions (drive options rerror, werror).

223    Change the medium for a removable disk device to point to *filename*. eg::

226

232    *read-only-mode* may be used to change the read-only status of the device.
233    It accepts the following values:
234
235    retain
236      Retains the current status; this is the default.
237
238    read-only

486``xp /``\ *fmt* *addr*
487  Physical memory dump starting at *addr*.
488
489  *fmt* is a format which tells the command how to format the
490  data. Its syntax is: ``/{count}{format}{size}``
491
492  *count*
493    is the number of items to be dumped.
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.

502  Examples:

504  Dump 10 instructions at the current instruction pointer::

913  Trigger a round of GARP/RARP broadcasts; this is useful for explicitly
914  updating the network infrastructure after a reconfiguration or some forms
915  of migration. The timings of the round are set by the migration announce
916  parameters. An optional comma separated *interfaces* list restricts the
917  announce to the named set of interfaces. An optional *id* can be used to
918  start a separate announce timer and to change the parameters of it later.
