# @normal: the original form of migration. (since 8.2)
#
+# @cpr-reboot: The migrate command saves state to a file, allowing one to
+# quit qemu, reboot to an updated kernel, and restart an updated
+# version of qemu. The caller must specify a migration URI
+# that writes to and reads from a file. Unlike normal mode,
+# the use of certain local storage options does not block the
+# migration, but the caller must not modify guest block devices
+# between the quit and restart. To avoid saving guest RAM to the
+# file, the memory backend must be shared, and the @x-ignore-shared
+# migration capability must be set. Guest RAM must be non-volatile
+# across reboot, such as by backing it with a dax device, but this
+# is not enforced. The restarted qemu arguments must match those
+# used to initially start qemu, plus the -incoming option.
+# (since 8.2)
