           Summary: The "-c" or "--clear" options to the "xm dmesg" don't
                    work
           Product: Xen
           Version: 3.0.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: Tools
        AssignedTo: xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: robert.johnston@xxxxxxx
                CC: robert.johnston@xxxxxxx


Both the usage message produced by "xm help" and the xm(1) man page describe
the usage for xm dmesg as follows:

[root@thermostat sysconfig]# xm help --long | grep dmesg
   dmesg [-c|--clear]               Read or clear Xen's message buffer

However, if you attempt to pass either the -c or --clear options to the dmesg
subcommand. it fails:

efi# xm dmesg -c
Error: 'xm dmesg' requires 0 argument.

   dmesg [-c|--clear]               Read or clear Xen's message buffer

efi# xm dmesg --clear
Error: 'xm dmesg' requires 0 argument.

   dmesg [-c|--clear]               Read or clear Xen's message buffer

This failure has been seen on a Solaris dom0 running xen 3.0.2-3 and a Linux
dom0 running xen 3.0.2-2, so this appears to be a platform neutral issue.
