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.

1060 o This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
1061 on state information (such as getfd) might not work
1062
1063 o Commands that prompt the user for data (eg. 'cont' when the block

1956 -------------
1957
1958 Migration status.
1959
1960 Return a json-object. If migration is active there will be another json-object
1961 with RAM migration status and if block migration is active another one with
1962 block migration status.
1963
1964 The main json-object contains the following:
1965
1966 - "status": migration status (json-string)
1967 - Possible values: "active", "completed", "failed", "cancelled"
1968 - "ram": only present if "status" is "active", it is a json-object with the
1969 following RAM information (in bytes):
1970 - "transferred": amount transferred (json-int)
1971 - "remaining": amount remaining (json-int)
1972 - "total": total (json-int)
1973 - "disk": only present if "status" is "active" and it is a block migration,
1974 it is a json-object with the following disk information (in bytes):
1975 - "transferred": amount transferred (json-int)
1976 - "remaining": amount remaining (json-int)
1977 - "total": total (json-int)
1978
1979 Examples:
1980
1981 1. Before the first migration
1982
1983 -> { "execute": "query-migrate" }
1984 <- { "return": {} }
1985
1986 2. Migration is done and has succeeded
1987
1988 -> { "execute": "query-migrate" }
1989 <- { "return": { "status": "completed" } }
1990
1991 3. Migration is done and has failed
1992
1993 -> { "execute": "query-migrate" }
1994 <- { "return": { "status": "failed" } }
1995
1996 4. Migration is being performed and is not a block migration:
1997
1998 -> { "execute": "query-migrate" }
1999 <- {
2000 "return":{
2001 "status":"active",
2002 "ram":{
2003 "transferred":123,
2004 "remaining":123,
2005 "total":246
2006 }
2007 }
2008 }
2009
2010 5. Migration is being performed and is a block migration:
2011
2012 -> { "execute": "query-migrate" }
2013 <- {
2014 "return":{
2015 "status":"active",
2016 "ram":{
2017 "total":1057024,
2018 "remaining":1053304,
2019 "transferred":3720

2040
2041 Show balloon information.
2042
2043 Make an asynchronous request for balloon info. When the request completes a
2044 json-object will be returned containing the following data:
2045
2046 - "actual": current balloon value in bytes (json-int)
2047 - "mem_swapped_in": Amount of memory swapped in bytes (json-int, optional)
2048 - "mem_swapped_out": Amount of memory swapped out in bytes (json-int, optional)
2049 - "major_page_faults": Number of major faults (json-int, optional)
2050 - "minor_page_faults": Number of minor faults (json-int, optional)
2051 - "free_mem": Total amount of free and unused memory in
2052 bytes (json-int, optional)
2053 - "total_mem": Total amount of available memory in bytes (json-int, optional)
2054
