The "dump-guest-core' option is new option for the machine type (-machine pc,dump-guest-core) that controls whether the guest memory will be marked as dumpable. While testing this, I've found out that the value for the '-M' options is not parsed correctly when additional parameters are used. However, when '-machine' is used for the same options, it gets parsed as expected. That's why this patch also modifies the parsing and creating of the command line, so both '-M' and '-machine' are recognized. In QEMU's help there is only mention of the 'machine parameter now with no sign of the older '-M'.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
