+PVE Qemu Event Daemon
+=====================
+:pve-toplevel:
+endif::manvolnum[]
+
+`qmeventd` is a daemon that listens on PATH for incoming connections from
+a qemu qmp socket, and waits for SHUTDOWN events. When a client then
+disconnects, it executes `/usr/sbin/qm cleanup`. This makes it easy
+to clean up leftover tap devices, vgpus, etc.
