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.
