Description Tim Orling 2017-02-19 05:17:39 UTC 
Conveniently, runqemu binds the host port 2222 to the target port 22. When running headless qemu it is desirable to be able to use the host port. We should allow for passing a different port to 'devtool deploy-target' and 'devtool undeploy-target', rather than rely on the defaults for ssh/scp.

Proposal:
    'devtool deploy-target --port 2222 recipename root@localhost'
or
    'devtool undeploy-target -P 2222 recipename root@localhost'

Already implemented and will send patch to ML for comment.
