   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.

 530 ringbuf-read
 531 -------------
 532

 542           - Naturally, format "utf8" works only when the ring buffer
 543             contains valid UTF-8 text.  Invalid UTF-8 sequences get
 544             replaced.  Bug: replacement doesn't work.  Bug: can screw
 545             up on encountering NUL characters, after the ring buffer
 546             lost data, and when reading stops because the size limit
 547             is reached.

1023
1024 Arguments:

1026 - "device": The device's ID, must be unique (json-string)
1027 - "base": The file name of the backing image to write data into.
1028           If not specified, this is the deepest backing image
1029           (json-string, optional)
1030 - "top":  The file name of the backing image within the image chain,
1031           which contains the topmost data to be committed down. If
1032           not specified, this is the active layer. (json-string, optional)
1033
1034 - backing-file:     The backing file string to write into the overlay
1035                     image of 'top'.  If 'top' is the active layer,
1036                     specifying a backing file string is an error. This
1037                     filename is not validated.
1038
1039                     If a pathname string is such that it cannot be
1040                     resolved by QEMU, that means that subsequent QMP or
1041                     HMP commands must use node-names for the image in
1042                     question, as filename lookup methods will fail.
1043
1044                     If not specified, QEMU will automatically determine
1045                     the backing file string to use, or error out if
1046                     there is no obvious choice. Care should be taken
1047                     when specifying the string, to specify a valid
1048                     filename or protocol.
1049                     (json-string, optional) (Since 2.1)
1050
1051           If top == base, that is an error.
1052           If top == active, the job will not be completed by itself,
1053           user needs to complete the job with the block-job-complete
1054           command after getting the ready event. (Since 2.0)
1055
1056           If the base image is smaller than top, then the base image
1057           will be resized to be the same size as top.  If top is
1058           smaller than the base image, the base will not be
1059           truncated.  If you want the base image size to match the
1060           size of the smaller top, you can safely truncate it
1061           yourself once the commit operation successfully completes.

1200 transaction
1201 -----------
1202
1203 Atomically operate on one or more block devices.  The only supported operations
1204 for now are drive-backup, internal and external snapshotting.  A list of
1205 dictionaries is accepted, that contains the actions to be performed.
1206 If there is any failure performing any of the operations, all operations
1207 for the group are abandoned.
1208
1209 For external snapshots, the dictionary contains the device, the file to use for
1210 the new snapshot, and the format.  The default format, if not specified, is
1211 qcow2.
1212
1213 Each new snapshot defaults to being created by QEMU (wiping any
1214 contents if the file already exists), but it is also possible to reuse
1215 an externally-created file.  In the latter case, you should ensure that
1216 the new image file has the same contents as the current one; QEMU cannot
1217 perform any meaningful check.  Typically this is achieved by using the
1218 current image file as the backing file for the new image.
1219
1220 On failure, the original disks pre-snapshot attempt will be used.
1221
1222 For internal snapshots, the dictionary contains the device and the snapshot's
1223 name.  If an internal snapshot matching name already exists, the request will
1224 be rejected.  Only some image formats support it, for example, qcow2, rbd,
1225 and sheepdog.
1226
1227 On failure, qemu will try delete the newly created internal snapshot in the
1228 transaction.  When an I/O error occurs during deletion, the user needs to fix
1229 it later with qemu-img or other command.

1911     Applications that rely on long term stability guarantees should NOT
1912     use this command
1913
1914 (2) Limitations:
1915
1916     o This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
1917       on state information (such as getfd) might not work
1918
1919     o Commands that prompt the user for data (eg. 'cont' when the block
1920       device is encrypted) don't currently work

3095 Migration status.
3096
3097 Return a json-object. If migration is active there will be another json-object
3098 with RAM migration status and if block migration is active another one with
3099 block migration status.
3100
3101 The main json-object contains the following:
3102
3103 - "status": migration status (json-string)
3104      - Possible values: "setup", "active", "completed", "failed", "cancelled"
3105 - "total-time": total amount of ms since migration started.  If
3106                 migration has ended, it returns the total migration
3107                 time (json-int)
3108 - "setup-time" amount of setup time in milliseconds _before_ the
3109                iterations begin but _after_ the QMP command is issued.
3110                This is designed to provide an accounting of any activities
3111                (such as RDMA pinning) which may be expensive, but do not
3112                actually occur during the iterative migration rounds
3113                themselves. (json-int)
3114 - "downtime": only present when migration has finished correctly
3115               total amount in ms for downtime that happened (json-int)
3116 - "expected-downtime": only present while migration is active
3117                 total amount in ms for downtime that was calculated on
3118                 the last bitmap round (json-int)
3119 - "ram": only present if "status" is "active", it is a json-object with the
3120   following RAM information:
3121          - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
3122          - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes (json-int)
3123          - "total": total amount of memory in bytes (json-int)
3124          - "duplicate": number of pages filled entirely with the same
3125             byte (json-int)
3126             These are sent over the wire much more efficiently.
3127          - "skipped": number of skipped zero pages (json-int)
3128          - "normal" : number of whole pages transferred.  I.e. they
3129             were not sent as duplicate or xbzrle pages (json-int)
3130          - "normal-bytes" : number of bytes transferred in whole
3131             pages. This is just normal pages times size of one page,
3132             but this way upper levels don't need to care about page
3133             size (json-int)
3134          - "dirty-sync-count": times that dirty ram was synchronized (json-int)
3135 - "disk": only present if "status" is "active" and it is a block migration,
3136   it is a json-object with the following disk information:
3137          - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
3138          - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes json-int)
3139          - "total": total disk size in bytes (json-int)
3140 - "xbzrle-cache": only present if XBZRLE is active.
3141   It is a json-object with the following XBZRLE information:
3142          - "cache-size": XBZRLE cache size in bytes
3143          - "bytes": number of bytes transferred for XBZRLE compressed pages
3144          - "pages": number of XBZRLE compressed pages
3145          - "cache-miss": number of XBRZRLE page cache misses
3146          - "cache-miss-rate": rate of XBRZRLE page cache misses
3147          - "overflow": number of times XBZRLE overflows.  This means
3148            that the XBZRLE encoding was bigger than just sent the
3149            whole page, and then we sent the whole page instead (as as
3150            normal page).

3896 @x-input-send-event
3897 -----------------
3898
3899 Send input event to guest.
3900
3901 Arguments:
3902
3903 - "console": console index. (json-int, optional)
3904 - "events": list of input events.
3905
3906 The consoles are visible in the qom tree, under
3907 /backend/console[$index]. They have a device link and head property, so
3908 it is possible to map which console belongs to which device and display.
3909
3910 Note: this command is experimental, and not a stable API.
3911
3912 Example (1):
3913
3914 Press left mouse button.
3915
3916 -> { "execute": "x-input-send-event",
3917     "arguments": { "console": 0,
3918                    "events": [ { "type": "btn",
3919                     "data" : { "down": true, "button": "Left" } } ] } }
3920 <- { "return": {} }
3921
3922 -> { "execute": "x-input-send-event",
3923     "arguments": { "console": 0,
3924                    "events": [ { "type": "btn",
3925                     "data" : { "down": false, "button": "Left" } } ] } }
3926 <- { "return": {} }
3927
3928 Example (2):
3929
3930 Press ctrl-alt-del.
3931
3932 -> { "execute": "x-input-send-event",
3933      "arguments": { "console": 0, "events": [
3934         { "type": "key", "data" : { "down": true,
3935           "key": {"type": "qcode", "data": "ctrl" } } },
3936         { "type": "key", "data" : { "down": true,
3937           "key": {"type": "qcode", "data": "alt" } } },
3938         { "type": "key", "data" : { "down": true,
3939           "key": {"type": "qcode", "data": "delete" } } } ] } }
3940 <- { "return": {} }
3941
3942 Example (3):
3943
3944 Move mouse pointer to absolute coordinates (20000, 400).
3945
3946 -> { "execute": "x-input-send-event" ,
3947   "arguments": { "console": 0, "events": [
3948                { "type": "abs", "data" : { "axis": "X", "value" : 20000 } },
3949                { "type": "abs", "data" : { "axis": "Y", "value" : 400 } } ] } }

3961 block-set-write-threshold
3962 ------------
3963
3964 Change the write threshold for a block drive. The threshold is an offset,
3965 thus must be non-negative. Default is no write threshold.
3966 Setting the threshold to zero disables it.
3967
3968 Arguments:
3969
3970 - "node-name": the node name in the block driver state graph (json-string)
3971 - "write-threshold": the write threshold in bytes (json-int)
