6 QMP Supported Commands
7 ----------------------
9 This document describes all commands currently supported by QMP.
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.
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.
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.
23 Also, the following notation is used to denote data flow:
25 -> data issued by the Client
26 <- Server data response
28 Please, refer to the QMP specification (QMP/qmp-spec.txt) for detailed
29 information on the Server command and response formats.
31 NOTE: This document is temporary and will be replaced soon.
33 1. Stability Considerations
34 ===========================
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.
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.
43 If you're planning to adopt QMP, please observe the following:
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
49 2. DO NOT rely on anything which is not explicit documented
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)
55 2. Regular Commands
56 ===================
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.

1065 Copy data from a backing file into a block device.
1067 Arguments:
1069 - "device": The device's ID, must be unique (json-string)
1070 - "base": The file name of the backing image above which copying starts
1071 (json-string, optional)
1072 - "backing-file": The backing file string to write into the active layer. This
1073 filename is not validated.
1075 If a pathname string is such that it cannot be resolved by
1076 QEMU, that means that subsequent QMP or HMP commands must use
1077 node-names for the image in question, as filename lookup
1078 methods will fail.
1080 If not specified, QEMU will automatically determine the
1081 backing file string to use, or error out if there is no
1082 obvious choice. Care should be taken when specifying the

1106 ------------
1108 Live commit of data from overlay image nodes into backing nodes - i.e., writes
1109 data between 'top' and 'base' into 'base'.
1111 Arguments:
1113 - "device": The device's ID, must be unique (json-string)
1114 - "base": The file name of the backing image to write data into.
1115 If not specified, this is the deepest backing image
1116 (json-string, optional)
1117 - "top": The file name of the backing image within the image chain,
1118 which contains the topmost data to be committed down. If
1119 not specified, this is the active layer. (json-string, optional)
1121 - backing-file: The backing file string to write into the overlay
1122 image of 'top'. If 'top' is the active layer,
1123 specifying a backing file string is an error. This
1124 filename is not validated.
1126 If a pathname string is such that it cannot be
1127 resolved by QEMU, that means that subsequent QMP or
1128 HMP commands must use node-names for the image in
1129 question, as filename lookup methods will fail.
1131 If not specified, QEMU will automatically determine
1132 the backing file string to use, or error out if
1133 there is no obvious choice. Care should be taken
1134 when specifying the string, to specify a valid
1135 filename or protocol.
1136 (json-string, optional) (Since 2.1)
1138 If top == base, that is an error.
1139 If top == active, the job will not be completed by itself,
1140 user needs to complete the job with the block-job-complete
1141 command after getting the ready event. (Since 2.0)
1143 If the base image is smaller than top, then the base image
1144 will be resized to be the same size as top. If top is
1145 smaller than the base image, the base will not be
1146 truncated. If you want the base image size to match the
1147 size of the smaller top, you can safely truncate it
1148 yourself once the commit operation successfully completes.
1149 (json-string)
1150 - "speed": the maximum speed, in bytes per second (json-int, optional)

1290 -----------
1292 Atomically operate on one or more block devices. Operations that are
1293 currently supported:
1295 - drive-backup
1296 - blockdev-backup
1297 - blockdev-snapshot-sync
1298 - blockdev-snapshot-internal-sync
1299 - abort
1300 - block-dirty-bitmap-add
1301 - block-dirty-bitmap-clear
1303 Refer to the qemu/qapi-schema.json file for minimum required QEMU
1304 versions for these operations. A list of dictionaries is accepted,
1305 that contains the actions to be performed. If there is any failure
1306 performing any of the operations, all operations for the group are
1307 abandoned.
1309 For external snapshots, the dictionary contains the device, the file to use for
1310 the new snapshot, and the format. The default format, if not specified, is
1311 qcow2.
1313 Each new snapshot defaults to being created by QEMU (wiping any
1314 contents if the file already exists), but it is also possible to reuse
1315 an externally-created file. In the latter case, you should ensure that
1316 the new image file has the same contents as the current one; QEMU cannot
1317 perform any meaningful check. Typically this is achieved by using the
1318 current image file as the backing file for the new image.
1320 On failure, the original disks pre-snapshot attempt will be used.
1322 For internal snapshots, the dictionary contains the device and the snapshot's
1323 name. If an internal snapshot matching name already exists, the request will
1324 be rejected. Only some image formats support it, for example, qcow2, rbd,
1325 and sheepdog.
1327 On failure, qemu will try delete the newly created internal snapshot in the
1328 transaction. When an I/O error occurs during deletion, the user needs to fix
1329 it later with qemu-img or other command.
1331 Arguments:
1333 actions array:
1334 - "type": the operation to perform (json-string). Possible
1335 values: "drive-backup", "blockdev-backup",

1728 Change the backing file in the image file metadata. This does not cause
1729 QEMU to reopen the image file to reparse the backing filename (it may,
1730 however, perform a reopen to change permissions from r/o -> r/w -> r/o,
1731 if needed). The new backing file string is written into the image file
1732 metadata, and the QEMU internal strings are updated.
1734 Arguments:
1736 - "image-node-name": The name of the block driver state node of the
1737 image to modify. The "device" is argument is used to
1738 verify "image-node-name" is in the chain described by
1739 "device".
1740 (json-string, optional)
1742 - "device": The name of the device.
1743 (json-string)

3502 were not sent as duplicate or xbzrle pages (json-int)
3503 - "normal-bytes" : number of bytes transferred in whole
3504 pages. This is just normal pages times size of one page,
3505 but this way upper levels don't need to care about page
3506 size (json-int)
3507 - "dirty-sync-count": times that dirty ram was synchronized (json-int)
3508 - "disk": only present if "status" is "active" and it is a block migration,
3509 it is a json-object with the following disk information:
3510 - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
3511 - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes json-int)
3512 - "total": total disk size in bytes (json-int)
3513 - "xbzrle-cache": only present if XBZRLE is active.
3514 It is a json-object with the following XBZRLE information:
3515 - "cache-size": XBZRLE cache size in bytes
3516 - "bytes": number of bytes transferred for XBZRLE compressed pages
3517 - "pages": number of XBZRLE compressed pages
3518 - "cache-miss": number of XBRZRLE page cache misses
3519 - "cache-miss-rate": rate of XBRZRLE page cache misses
3520 - "overflow": number of times XBZRLE overflows. This means
3521 that the XBZRLE encoding was bigger than just sent the
3522 whole page, and then we sent the whole page instead (as as
3523 normal page).

4151 Deletes a block device thas has been added using blockdev-add.
4152 The selected device can be either a block backend or a graph node.
4154 In the former case the backend will be destroyed, along with its
4155 inserted medium if there's any. The command will fail if the backend
4156 or its medium are in use.
4158 In the latter case the node will be destroyed. The command will fail
4159 if the node is attached to a block backend or is otherwise being
4160 used.
4162 One of "id" or "node-name" must be specified, but not both.

4205 ------------------
4207 Opens a block device's tray. If there is a block driver state tree inserted as a
4208 medium, it will become inaccessible to the guest (but it will remain associated
4209 to the block device, so closing the tray will make it accessible again).
4211 If the tray was already open before, this will be a no-op.
4213 Once the tray opens, a DEVICE_TRAY_MOVED event is emitted. There are cases in
4214 which no such event will be generated, these include:
4215 - if the guest has locked the tray, @force is false and the guest does not
4216 respond to the eject request
4217 - if the BlockBackend denoted by @device does not have a guest device attached
4218 to it
4219 - if the guest device does not have an actual tray and is empty, for instance
4220 for floppy disk drives
4222 Arguments:
4224 - "device": block device name (json-string)
4225 - "force": if false (the default), an eject request will be sent to the guest if
4226 it has locked the tray (and the tray will not be opened immediately);
