  15# @BiosAtaTranslation:
  16#
  17# Policy that BIOS should use to interpret cylinder/head/sector
  18# addresses.  Note that Bochs BIOS and SeaBIOS will not actually
  19# translate logical CHS to physical; instead, they will use logical
  20# block addressing.
  21#
  22# @auto: If cylinder/heads/sizes are passed, choose between none and LBA
  23#        depending on the size of the disk.  If they are not passed,
  24#        choose none if QEMU can guess that the disk had 16 or fewer
  25#        heads, large if QEMU can guess that the disk had 131072 or
  26#        fewer tracks across all heads (i.e. cylinders*heads<131072),
  27#        otherwise LBA.
  28#
  29# @none: The physical disk geometry is equal to the logical geometry.
  30#
  31# @lba: Assume 63 sectors per track and one of 16, 32, 64, 128 or 255
  32#       heads (if fewer than 255 are enough to cover the whole disk
  33#       with 1024 cylinders/head).  The number of cylinders/head is
  34#       then computed based on the number of sectors and heads.
  35#
  36# @large: The number of cylinders per head is scaled down to 1024
  37#         by correspondingly scaling up the number of heads.
  38#
  39# @rechs: Same as @large, but first convert a 16-head geometry to
  40#         15-head, by proportionally scaling up the number of
  41#         cylinders/head.

 499# @block-latency-histogram-set:
 500#
 501# Manage read, write and flush latency histograms for the device.
 502#
 503# If only @id parameter is specified, remove all present latency histograms
 504# for the device. Otherwise, add/reset some of (or all) latency histograms.
 505#
 506# @id: The name or QOM path of the guest device.
 507#
 508# @boundaries: list of interval boundary values (see description in
 509#              BlockLatencyHistogramInfo definition). If specified, all
 510#              latency histograms are removed, and empty ones created for all
 511#              io types with intervals corresponding to @boundaries (except for
 512#              io types, for which specific boundaries are set through the
 513#              following parameters).
 514#
 515# @boundaries-read: list of interval boundary values for read latency
 516#                   histogram. If specified, old read latency histogram is
 517#                   removed, and empty one created with intervals
 518#                   corresponding to @boundaries-read. The parameter has higher
 519#                   priority then @boundaries.
 520#
 521# @boundaries-write: list of interval boundary values for write latency
 522#                    histogram.
 523#
 524# @boundaries-flush: list of interval boundary values for flush latency
 525#                    histogram.

 527# Returns: error if device is not found or any boundary arrays are invalid.
