6 QMP Supported Commands
7 ----------------------
8
9This document describes all commands currently supported by QMP.
10
11Most of the time their usage is exactly the same as in the user Monitor, this
12means that any other document which also describe commands (the manpage,
13QEMU's manual, etc) can and should be consulted.
14
15QMP has two types of commands: regular and query commands. Regular commands
16usually change the Virtual Machine's state someway, while query commands just
17return information. The sections below are divided accordingly.
18
19It's important to observe that all communication examples are formatted in
20a reader-friendly way, so that they're easier to understand. However, in real
21protocol usage, they're emitted as a single line.
22
23Also, the following notation is used to denote data flow:
24
25-> data issued by the Client
26<- Server data response
27
28Please, refer to the QMP specification (QMP/qmp-spec.txt) for detailed
29information on the Server command and response formats.
30
31NOTE: This document is temporary and will be replaced soon.
32
331. Stability Considerations
34===========================
35
36The current QMP command set (described in this file) may be useful for a
37number of use cases, however it's limited and several commands have bad
38defined semantics, specially with regard to command completion.
39
40These problems are going to be solved incrementally in the next QEMU releases
41and we're going to establish a deprecation policy for badly defined commands.
42
43If you're planning to adopt QMP, please observe the following:
44
c20cdf8b 45 1. The deprecation policy will take effect and be documented soon, please
82a56f0d
LC
46 check the documentation of each used command as soon as a new release of
47 QEMU is available
48
49 2. DO NOT rely on anything which is not explicit documented
50
51 3. Errors, in special, are not documented. Applications should NOT check
52 for specific errors classes or data (it's strongly recommended to only
53 check for the "error" key)
54
552. Regular Commands
56===================
57
58Server's responses in the examples below are always a success response, please
59refer to the QMP specification for more details on error responses.

1007 not specified, this is the active layer. (json-string, optional)

JC
1009- backing-file: The backing file string to write into the overlay
1010 image of 'top'. If 'top' is the active layer,
1011 specifying a backing file string is an error. This
1012 filename is not validated.
1013
1014 If a pathname string is such that it cannot be
1015 resolved by QEMU, that means that subsequent QMP or
1016 HMP commands must use node-names for the image in
1017 question, as filename lookup methods will fail.
1018
1019 If not specified, QEMU will automatically determine
1020 the backing file string to use, or error out if
1021 there is no obvious choice. Care should be taken
1022 when specifying the string, to specify a valid
1023 filename or protocol.
1024 (json-string, optional) (Since 2.1)
1025
37222900
JC
1026 If top == base, that is an error.
1027 If top == active, the job will not be completed by itself,
1028 user needs to complete the job with the block-job-complete
1029 command after getting the ready event. (Since 2.0)
1030
1031 If the base image is smaller than top, then the base image
1032 will be resized to be the same size as top. If top is
1033 smaller than the base image, the base will not be
1034 truncated. If you want the base image size to match the
1035 size of the smaller top, you can safely truncate it
1036 yourself once the commit operation successfully completes.

1146Each new snapshot defaults to being created by QEMU (wiping any

1148an externally-created file. In the latter case, you should ensure that
1149the new image file has the same contents as the current one; QEMU cannot
1150perform any meaningful check. Typically this is achieved by using the
1151current image file as the backing file for the new image.

1843(1) The Human Monitor is NOT an stable interface, this means that command
1844 names, arguments and responses can change or be removed at ANY time.
1845 Applications that rely on long term stability guarantees should NOT
1846 use this command
1847
1848(2) Limitations:
1849
1850 o This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
1851 on state information (such as getfd) might not work
1852
1853 o Commands that prompt the user for data (eg. 'cont' when the block
1854 device is encrypted) don't currently work
