Subject: [PATCH V2] migration: massage cpr-reboot documentation
Date: Thu, 29 Feb 2024 06:54:22 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1709218462-3640-1-git-send-email-steven.sistare@oracle.com> (raw)

Re-wrap the cpr-reboot documentation to 70 columns, use '@' for
cpr-reboot references, capitalize COLO and VFIO, and tweak the
wording.

-#     This mode allows the user to quit qemu, and restart an updated version
