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.

1001 transaction
1002 -----------
1003
1004 Atomically operate on one or more block devices. The only supported operations
1005 for now are drive-backup, internal and external snapshotting. A list of
1006 dictionaries is accepted, that contains the actions to be performed.
1007 If there is any failure performing any of the operations, all operations
1008 for the group are abandoned.
1009
1010 For external snapshots, the dictionary contains the device, the file to use for
1011 the new snapshot, and the format. The default format, if not specified, is
1012 qcow2.
1013
1014 Each new snapshot defaults to being created by QEMU (wiping any
1015 contents if the file already exists), but it is also possible to reuse
1016 an externally-created file. In the latter case, you should ensure that
1017 the new image file has the same contents as the current one; QEMU cannot
1018 perform any meaningful check. Typically this is achieved by using the
1019 current image file as the backing file for the new image.
1020
1021 On failure, the original disks pre-snapshot attempt will be used.
1022
1023 For internal snapshots, the dictionary contains the device and the snapshot's
1024 name. If an internal snapshot matching name already exists, the request will
1025 be rejected. Only some image formats support it, for example, qcow2, rbd,
1026 and sheepdog.
1027
1028 On failure, qemu will try delete the newly created internal snapshot in the
1029 transaction. When an I/O error occurs during deletion, the user needs to fix
1030 it later with qemu-img or other command.
1031
1032 Arguments:

1034 actions array:
1035 - "type": the operation to perform. The only supported
1036 value is "blockdev-snapshot-sync". (json-string)

1039 - "device": device name to snapshot (json-string)

1623 o This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
1624 on state information (such as getfd) might not work

2683 query-migrate
2684 -------------

2687
2688 Return a json-object. If migration is active there will be another json-object
2689 with RAM migration status and if block migration is active another one with
2690 block migration status.
2691
2692 The main json-object contains the following:
2693
2694 - "status": migration status (json-string)
2695 - Possible values: "active", "completed", "failed", "cancelled"
2696 - "total-time": total amount of ms since migration started. If
2697 migration has ended, it returns the total migration
2698 time (json-int)
2699 - "setup-time" amount of setup time in milliseconds _before_ the
2700 iterations begin but _after_ the QMP command is issued.
2701 This is designed to provide an accounting of any activities
2702 (such as RDMA pinning) which may be expensive, but do not
2703 actually occur during the iterative migration rounds
2704 themselves. (json-int)
2705 - "downtime": only present when migration has finished correctly
2706 total amount in ms for downtime that happened (json-int)
2707 - "expected-downtime": only present while migration is active
2708 total amount in ms for downtime that was calculated on
2709 the last bitmap round (json-int)
2710 - "ram": only present if "status" is "active", it is a json-object with the
2711 following RAM information:
2712 - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
2713 - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes (json-int)
2714 - "total": total amount of memory in bytes (json-int)
2715 - "duplicate": number of pages filled entirely with the same
2716 byte (json-int)
2717 These are sent over the wire much more efficiently.
2718 - "skipped": number of skipped zero pages (json-int)
2719 - "normal" : number of whole pages transferred. I.e. they
2720 were not sent as duplicate or xbzrle pages (json-int)
2721 - "normal-bytes" : number of bytes transferred in whole
2722 pages. This is just normal pages times size of one page,
2723 but this way upper levels don't need to care about page
2724 size (json-int)
2725 - "disk": only present if "status" is "active" and it is a block migration,
2726 it is a json-object with the following disk information:
2727 - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
2728 - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes json-int)
2729 - "total": total disk size in bytes (json-int)
2730 - "xbzrle-cache": only present if XBZRLE is active.
2731 It is a json-object with the following XBZRLE information:
2732 - "cache-size": XBZRLE cache size in bytes
2733 - "bytes": number of bytes transferred for XBZRLE compressed pages
2734 - "pages": number of XBZRLE compressed pages
2735 - "cache-miss": number of XBRZRLE page cache misses
2736 - "overflow": number of times XBZRLE overflows. This means
2737 that the XBZRLE encoding was bigger than just sent the
2738 whole page, and then we sent the whole page instead (as as
2739 normal page).
2740

3124 chardev-remove
3125 --------------
3126
3127 Remove a chardev.
3128
3129 Arguments:
3130
3131 - "id": the chardev's ID, must exist and not be in use (json-string)
3132
3133 Example:

3146 query-rx-filter
3147 ---------------
3148
3149 Show rx-filter information.
3150
3151 Returns a json-array of rx-filter information for all NICs (or for the
3152 given NIC), returning an error if the given NIC doesn't exist, or
3153 given NIC doesn't support rx-filter querying, or given net client
3154 isn't a NIC.
3155
3156 The query will clear the event notification flag of each NIC, then qemu
3157 will start to emit event to QMP monitor.
3158
3159 Each array entry contains the following:
3160
3161 - "name": net client name (json-string)
3162 - "promiscuous": promiscuous mode is enabled (json-bool)
3163 - "multicast": multicast receive state (one of 'normal', 'none', 'all')
3164 - "unicast": unicast receive state (one of 'normal', 'none', 'all')
3165 - "broadcast-allowed": allow to receive broadcast (json-bool)
3166 - "multicast-overflow": multicast table is overflowed (json-bool)
3167 - "unicast-overflow": unicast table is overflowed (json-bool)
3168 - "main-mac": main macaddr string (json-string)
3169 - "vlan-table": a json-array of active vlan id
3170 - "unicast-table": a json-array of unicast macaddr string
3171 - "multicast-table": a json-array of multicast macaddr string
3172
