Title:
Provide target specific qemu man pages
Status in QEMU:
Expired
Bug description:
Right now, all qemu target binaries (qemu-system-...) share the same
man page.
The current man page is primarily focused on x86, and therefore the
information given is entirely wrong for e.g. arm, powerpc or s390x.
NAME
qemu-doc - QEMU Emulator User Documentation
SYNOPSIS
qemu-system-i386 [options] [disk_image]
DESCRIPTION
The QEMU PC System emulator simulates the following peripherals:
- i440FX host PCI bridge and PIIX3 PCI to ISA bridge
- Cirrus CLGD 5446 PCI VGA card or dummy VGA card with Bochs VESA
extensions (hardware level, including all non
standard modes).
- PS/2 mouse and keyboard
- 2 PCI IDE interfaces with hard disk and CD-ROM support
- Floppy disk
...
We should have target specific man pages, with the common
options/settings factored out, so they are included in all target
specific man pages.
"man qemu-system-s390x" should give s390x specific (+common)
information and "man qemu-system-x86_64" should contain x86 specific
(+common) information.
