From 208abbcbd7b7225d4506cfbb230cb2cb3fce87f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Marc-Andr=C3=A9=20Lureau?= Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2015 18:41:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] docs: add domain vmport feature A new feature that can be turned on or off. The QEMU machine vmport option allows to set the VMWare IO port emulation. This emulation is useful for absolute pointer input when the guest has vmware input drivers, and is enabled by default for kvm. However it is unnecessary for Spice-enabled VM, since the agent already handles absolute pointer and multi-monitors. Furthermore, it prevents Spice from switching to relative input since the regular ps/2 pointer driver is replaced by the vmware driver. It is thus advised to disable vmport when using a Spice VM. This will permit the Spice client to switch from absolute to relative pointer, as it may be required for certain games or applications. --- docs/formatdomain.html.in | 6 ++++++ docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 9 +++++++++ 2 files changed, 15 insertions(+) diff --git a/docs/formatdomain.html.in b/docs/formatdomain.html.in index 0767a2a077..d484152934 100644 --- a/docs/formatdomain.html.in +++ b/docs/formatdomain.html.in @@ -1539,6 +1539,12 @@ performance monitoring unit for the guest.
