# = Introduction
|
|
#
|
|
# This document describes all commands currently supported by QMP.
|
|
#
|
|
# Most of the time their usage is exactly the same as in the user Monitor, this
|
|
# means that any other document which also describe commands (the manpage,
|
|
# QEMU's manual, etc) can and should be consulted.
|
|
#
|
|
# QMP has two types of commands: regular and query commands. Regular commands
|
|
# usually change the Virtual Machine's state someway, while query commands just
|
|
# return information. The sections below are divided accordingly.
|
|
#
|
|
# It's important to observe that all communication examples are formatted in
|
|
# a reader-friendly way, so that they're easier to understand. However, in real
|
|
# protocol usage, they're emitted as a single line.
|
|
#
|
|
# Also, the following notation is used to denote data flow:
|
|
#
|
|
# Example:
|
|
#
|
|
# | -> data issued by the Client
|
|
# | <- Server data response
|
|
#
|
|
# Please, refer to the QMP specification (docs/interop/qmp-spec.txt) for
|
|
# detailed information on the Server command and response formats.
|
|
#
|
|
# = Stability Considerations
|
|
#
|
|
# The current QMP command set (described in this file) may be useful for a
|
|
# number of use cases, however it's limited and several commands have bad
|
|
# defined semantics, specially with regard to command completion.
|
|
#
|
|
# These problems are going to be solved incrementally in the next QEMU releases
|
|
# and we're going to establish a deprecation policy for badly defined commands.
|
|
#
|
|
# If you're planning to adopt QMP, please observe the following:
|
|
#
|
|
# 1. The deprecation policy will take effect and be documented soon, please
|
|
# check the documentation of each used command as soon as a new release of
|
|
# QEMU is available
|
|
#
|
|
# 2. DO NOT rely on anything which is not explicit documented
|
|
#
|
|
# 3. Errors, in special, are not documented. Applications should NOT check
|
|
# for specific errors classes or data (it's strongly recommended to only
|
|
# check for the "error" key)
|
|
#
