qemu kernel-irqchip help output is not clear and confusing #18

Closed nasastry closed 6 years ago

nasastry commented 7 years ago
Mirrored with LTC bug https://bugzilla.linux.ibm.com/show_bug.cgi?id=159926 `qemu-system-ppc64 -machine pseries,help` output shows ... `kernel-irqchip=OnOffSplit (Configure KVM in-kernel irqchip)` The above output is confusing and not clear. And that too capitalized word is not working. Valid word has to be in smaller case like (on, off, split). Help should look like `kernel-irqchip=string (Configure KVM in-kernel irqchip. Valid values are on, off, split)`
