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.

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
549 is reached.

1004 Atomically operate on one or more block devices. The only supported
1005 operation for now is snapshotting. If there is any failure performing
1006 any of the operations, all snapshots for the group are abandoned, and
1007 the original disks pre-snapshot attempt are used.
1008
1009 A list of dictionaries is accepted, that contains the actions to be performed.
1010 For snapshots this is the device, the file to use for the new snapshot,
1011 and the format. The default format, if not specified, is qcow2.
1012
1013 Each new snapshot defaults to being created by QEMU (wiping any
1014 contents if the file already exists), but it is also possible to reuse
1015 an externally-created file. In the latter case, you should ensure that
1016 the new image file has the same contents as the current one; QEMU cannot
1017 perform any meaningful check. Typically this is achieved by using the
1018 current image file as the backing file for the new image.

1026 of "type". When "type" is "blockdev-snapshot-sync":
1027 - "device": device name to snapshot (json-string)
1028 - "snapshot-file": name of new image file (json-string)

1570 names, arguments and responses can change or be removed at ANY time.
1571 Applications that rely on long term stability guarantees should NOT
1572 use this command
1573
1574 (2) Limitations:
1575
1576 o This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
1577 on state information (such as getfd) might not work
1578
1579 o Commands that prompt the user for data (eg. 'cont' when the block
1580 device is encrypted) don't currently work

2639 Migration status.
2640
2641 Return a json-object. If migration is active there will be another json-object
2642 with RAM migration status and if block migration is active another one with
2643 block migration status.
2644
2645 The main json-object contains the following:
2646
2647 - "status": migration status (json-string)
2648 - Possible values: "active", "completed", "failed", "cancelled"
2649 - "total-time": total amount of ms since migration started. If
2650 migration has ended, it returns the total migration
2651 time (json-int)
2652 - "setup-time" amount of setup time in milliseconds _before_ the
2653 iterations begin but _after_ the QMP command is issued.
2654 This is designed to provide an accounting of any activities
2655 (such as RDMA pinning) which may be expensive, but do not
2656 actually occur during the iterative migration rounds
2657 themselves. (json-int)
2658 - "downtime": only present when migration has finished correctly
2659 total amount in ms for downtime that happened (json-int)
2660 - "expected-downtime": only present while migration is active
2661 total amount in ms for downtime that was calculated on
2662 the last bitmap round (json-int)
2663 - "ram": only present if "status" is "active", it is a json-object with the
2664 following RAM information:
2665 - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
2666 - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes (json-int)
2667 - "total": total amount of memory in bytes (json-int)
2668 - "duplicate": number of pages filled entirely with the same
2669 byte (json-int)
2670 These are sent over the wire much more efficiently.
2671 - "skipped": number of skipped zero pages (json-int)
2672 - "normal" : number of whole pages transferred. I.e. they
2673 were not sent as duplicate or xbzrle pages (json-int)
2674 - "normal-bytes" : number of bytes transferred in whole
2675 pages. This is just normal pages times size of one page,
2676 but this way upper levels don't need to care about page
2677 size (json-int)
2678 - "disk": only present if "status" is "active" and it is a block migration,
2679 it is a json-object with the following disk information:
2680 - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
2681 - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes json-int)
2682 - "total": total disk size in bytes (json-int)
2683 - "xbzrle-cache": only present if XBZRLE is active.
2684 It is a json-object with the following XBZRLE information:
2685 - "cache-size": XBZRLE cache size in bytes
2686 - "bytes": number of bytes transferred for XBZRLE compressed pages
2687 - "pages": number of XBZRLE compressed pages
2688 - "cache-miss": number of XBRZRLE page cache misses
2689 - "overflow": number of times XBZRLE overflows. This means
2690 that the XBZRLE encoding was bigger than just sent the
2691 whole page, and then we sent the whole page instead (as as
2692 normal page).

3109 The query will clear the event notification flag of each NIC, then qemu
3110 will start to emit event to QMP monitor.
3111
3112 Each array entry contains the following:
3113
3114 - "name": net client name (json-string)
3115 - "promiscuous": promiscuous mode is enabled (json-bool)
3116 - "multicast": multicast receive state (one of 'normal', 'none', 'all')
3117 - "unicast": unicast receive state (one of 'normal', 'none', 'all')
3118 - "broadcast-allowed": allow to receive broadcast (json-bool)
3119 - "multicast-overflow": multicast table is overflowed (json-bool)
3120 - "unicast-overflow": unicast table is overflowed (json-bool)
3121 - "main-mac": main macaddr string (json-string)
3122 - "vlan-table": a json-array of active vlan id
3123 - "unicast-table": a json-array of unicast macaddr string
3124 - "multicast-table": a json-array of multicast macaddr string
