6 QMP Supported Commands
7 ----------------------
8
9 This document describes all commands currently supported by QMP.
10
11 Most of the time their usage is exactly the same as in the user Monitor, this
12 means that any other document which also describe commands (the manpage,
13 QEMU's manual, etc) can and should be consulted.
14
15 QMP has two types of commands: regular and query commands. Regular commands
16 usually change the Virtual Machine's state someway, while query commands just
17 return information. The sections below are divided accordingly.
18
19 It's important to observe that all communication examples are formatted in
20 a reader-friendly way, so that they're easier to understand. However, in real
21 protocol usage, they're emitted as a single line.
22
23 Also, the following notation is used to denote data flow:
24
25 -> data issued by the Client
26 <- Server data response
27
28 Please, refer to the QMP specification (QMP/qmp-spec.txt) for detailed
29 information on the Server command and response formats.
30
31 NOTE: This document is temporary and will be replaced soon.
32
33 1. Stability Considerations
34 ===========================
35
36 The current QMP command set (described in this file) may be useful for a
37 number of use cases, however it's limited and several commands have bad
38 defined semantics, specially with regard to command completion.
39
40 These problems are going to be solved incrementally in the next QEMU releases
41 and we're going to establish a deprecation policy for badly defined commands.
42
43 If 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
55 2. Regular Commands
56 ===================
57
58 Server's responses in the examples below are always a success response, please
59 refer to the QMP specification for more details on error responses.

981
982 (1) The Human Monitor is NOT an stable interface, this means that command
983 names, arguments and responses can change or be removed at ANY time.
984 Applications that rely on long term stability guarantees should NOT
985 use this command
986
987 (2) Limitations:
988
989 o This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
990 on state information (such as getfd) might not work
991
992 o Commands that prompt the user for data (eg. 'cont' when the block
993 device is encrypted) don't currently work

1970 Show balloon information.
1971
1972 Make an asynchronous request for balloon info. When the request completes a
1973 json-object will be returned containing the following data:
1974
1975 - "actual": current balloon value in bytes (json-int)
1976 - "mem_swapped_in": Amount of memory swapped in bytes (json-int, optional)
1977 - "mem_swapped_out": Amount of memory swapped out in bytes (json-int, optional)
1978 - "major_page_faults": Number of major faults (json-int, optional)
1979 - "minor_page_faults": Number of minor faults (json-int, optional)
1980 - "free_mem": Total amount of free and unused memory in
1981 bytes (json-int, optional)
1982 - "total_mem": Total amount of available memory in bytes (json-int, optional)
