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.

1003 Atomically operate on one or more block devices. The only supported
1004 operation for now is snapshotting. If there is any failure performing
1005 any of the operations, all snapshots for the group are abandoned, and
1006 the original disks pre-snapshot attempt are used.
1007
1008 A list of dictionaries is accepted, that contains the actions to be performed.
1009 For snapshots this is the device, the file to use for the new snapshot,
1010 and the format. The default format, if not specified, is qcow2.
1011
1012 Each new snapshot defaults to being created by QEMU (wiping any
1013 contents if the file already exists), but it is also possible to reuse
1014 an externally-created file. In the latter case, you should ensure that
1015 the new image file has the same contents as the current one; QEMU cannot
1016 perform any meaningful check. Typically this is achieved by using the
1017 current image file as the backing file for the new image.

1025 of "type". When "type" is "blockdev-snapshot-sync":
1026 - "device": device name to snapshot (json-string)
1027 - "snapshot-file": name of new image file (json-string)
1028 - "format": format of new image (json-string, optional)

1555 names, arguments and responses can change or be removed at ANY time.
1556 Applications that rely on long term stability guarantees should NOT
1557 use this command
1558
1559 (2) Limitations:
1560
1561 o This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
1562 on state information (such as getfd) might not work
1563
1564 o Commands that prompt the user for data (eg. 'cont' when the block
1565 device is encrypted) don't currently work

2610 Migration status.
2611
2612 Return a json-object. If migration is active there will be another json-object
2613 with RAM migration status and if block migration is active another one with
2614 block migration status.
2615
2616 The main json-object contains the following:
2617
2618 - "status": migration status (json-string)
2619 - Possible values: "active", "completed", "failed", "cancelled"
2620 - "total-time": total amount of ms since migration started. If
2621 migration has ended, it returns the total migration
2622 time (json-int)
2623 - "downtime": only present when migration has finished correctly
2624 total amount in ms for downtime that happened (json-int)
2625 - "expected-downtime": only present while migration is active
2626 total amount in ms for downtime that was calculated on
2627 the last bitmap round (json-int)
2628 - "ram": only present if "status" is "active", it is a json-object with the
2629 following RAM information:
2630 - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
2631 - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes (json-int)
2632 - "total": total amount of memory in bytes (json-int)
2633 - "duplicate": number of pages filled entirely with the same
2634 byte (json-int)
2635 These are sent over the wire much more efficiently.
2636 - "skipped": number of skipped zero pages (json-int)
2637 - "normal" : number of whole pages transferred. I.e. they
2638 were not sent as duplicate or xbzrle pages (json-int)
2639 - "normal-bytes" : number of bytes transferred in whole
2640 pages. This is just normal pages times size of one page,
2641 but this way upper levels don't need to care about page
2642 size (json-int)
2643 - "disk": only present if "status" is "active" and it is a block migration,
2644 it is a json-object with the following disk information:
2645 - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
2646 - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes json-int)
2647 - "total": total disk size in bytes (json-int)
2648 - "xbzrle-cache": only present if XBZRLE is active.
2649 It is a json-object with the following XBZRLE information:
2650 - "cache-size": XBZRLE cache size in bytes
2651 - "bytes": number of bytes transferred for XBZRLE compressed pages
2652 - "pages": number of XBZRLE compressed pages
2653 - "cache-miss": number of XBRZRLE page cache misses
2654 - "overflow": number of times XBZRLE overflows. This means
2655 that the XBZRLE encoding was bigger than just sent the
2656 whole page, and then we sent the whole page instead (as as
2657 normal page).
