,however,our qemu-kvm man page still don't update it.

Verified with qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.278.el6.x86_64

 -global driver.prop=value
           Set default value of driver’s property prop to value, e.g.:

                   qemu -global ide-drive.physical_block_size=4096 -drive file=file,if=ide,index=0,media=disk

           In particular, you can use this to set driver properties for devices which are created automatically by the machine model. To
           create a device which is not created automatically and set properties on it, use -device.
