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
45 1. The deprecation policy will take effect and be documented soon, please
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.

546 replaced. Bug: replacement doesn't work. Bug: can screw
547 up on encountering NUL characters, after the ring buffer
548 lost data, and when reading stops because the size limit

1055Atomically operate on one or more block devices. The only supported operations
1056for now are drive-backup, internal and external snapshotting. A list of
1057dictionaries is accepted, that contains the actions to be performed.
1058If there is any failure performing any of the operations, all operations
1059for the group are abandoned.
1060
1061For external snapshots, the dictionary contains the device, the file to use for
1062the new snapshot, and the format. The default format, if not specified, is
1063qcow2.
1064
1065Each new snapshot defaults to being created by QEMU (wiping any
1066contents if the file already exists), but it is also possible to reuse
1067an externally-created file. In the latter case, you should ensure that
1068the new image file has the same contents as the current one; QEMU cannot
1069perform any meaningful check. Typically this is achieved by using the
1070current image file as the backing file for the new image.
1071
1072On failure, the original disks pre-snapshot attempt will be used.
1073
1074For internal snapshots, the dictionary contains the device and the snapshot's
1075name. If an internal snapshot matching name already exists, the request will
1076be rejected. Only some image formats support it, for example, qcow2, rbd,
1077and sheepdog.
1078
1079On failure, qemu will try delete the newly created internal snapshot in the
1080transaction. When an I/O error occurs during deletion, the user needs to fix
1081it later with qemu-img or other command.

2780Return a json-object. If migration is active there will be another json-object
2781with RAM migration status and if block migration is active another one with
2782block migration status.
2783
2784The main json-object contains the following:
2785
2786- "status": migration status (json-string)
2787 - Possible values: "active", "completed", "failed", "cancelled"
2788- "total-time": total amount of ms since migration started. If
2789 migration has ended, it returns the total migration
2790 time (json-int)
2791- "setup-time" amount of setup time in milliseconds _before_ the
2792 iterations begin but _after_ the QMP command is issued.
2793 This is designed to provide an accounting of any activities
2794 (such as RDMA pinning) which may be expensive, but do not
2795 actually occur during the iterative migration rounds
2796 themselves. (json-int)
2797- "downtime": only present when migration has finished correctly
2798 total amount in ms for downtime that happened (json-int)
2799- "expected-downtime": only present while migration is active
2800 total amount in ms for downtime that was calculated on
2801 the last bitmap round (json-int)
2802- "ram": only present if "status" is "active", it is a json-object with the
2803 following RAM information:
2804 - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
2805 - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes (json-int)
2806 - "total": total amount of memory in bytes (json-int)
2807 - "duplicate": number of pages filled entirely with the same
2808 byte (json-int)
2809 These are sent over the wire much more efficiently.
2810 - "skipped": number of skipped zero pages (json-int)
2811 - "normal" : number of whole pages transferred. I.e. they
2812 were not sent as duplicate or xbzrle pages (json-int)
2813 - "normal-bytes" : number of bytes transferred in whole
2814 pages. This is just normal pages times size of one page,
2815 but this way upper levels don't need to care about page
2816 size (json-int)
2817- "disk": only present if "status" is "active" and it is a block migration,
2818 it is a json-object with the following disk information:
2819 - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
2820 - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes json-int)
2821 - "total": total disk size in bytes (json-int)
2822- "xbzrle-cache": only present if XBZRLE is active.
2823 It is a json-object with the following XBZRLE information:
2824 - "cache-size": XBZRLE cache size in bytes
2825 - "bytes": number of bytes transferred for XBZRLE compressed pages
2826 - "pages": number of XBZRLE compressed pages
2827 - "cache-miss": number of XBRZRLE page cache misses
2828 - "overflow": number of times XBZRLE overflows. This means
2829 that the XBZRLE encoding was bigger than just sent the
2830 whole page, and then we sent the whole page instead (as as
2831 normal page).
