From: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefa...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Avoiding data loss and corruption is the top requirement for image file
formats. The qemu-io "abort" command makes it possible to simulate
program crashes and does not give the image format a chance to cleanly
shut down. This command is useful for data integrity test cases.
