[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qemu-options.hx: Fix set_password and expire_passwo


From: Pavel Hrdina
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qemu-options.hx: Fix set_password and expire_password description
Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2012 15:19:29 +0200

From: Michal Novotny <address@hidden>

The description for set_password and expire_password commands is
incomplete. This patch fixes the man page that is being generated
to match the real behaviour of these functions.

+The password must be set separately using the @code{set_password} command in
+the @ref{pcsys_monitor}. The syntax to change your password is:
address@hidden <protocol> <password>} where <protocol> could be either
+"vnc" or "spice".
+
+If you would like to change <protocol> password expiration, you should use
address@hidden <protocol> <expiration-time>} where expiration time could
+be one of the following options: now, never, +seconds or UNIX time of
+expiration, e.g. +60 to make password expire in 60 seconds, or 1335196800
+to make password expire on "Mon Apr 23 12:00:00 EDT 2012" (UNIX time for this
+date and time).
+
+You can also use keywords "now" or "never" for the expiration time to
+allow <protocol> password to expire immediately or never expire.
