# @qmp_capabilities:
#
# Enable QMP capabilities.
#
# Arguments:
#
# @enable: An optional list of QMPCapability values to enable.  The
#          client must not enable any capability that is not
#          mentioned in the QMP greeting message.  If the field is not
#          provided, it means no QMP capabilities will be enabled.
#          (since 2.12)
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "qmp_capabilities",
#      "arguments": { "enable": [ "oob" ] } }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
# Notes: This command is valid exactly when first connecting: it must be
#        issued before any other command will be accepted, and will fail once the
#        monitor is accepting other commands. (see qemu docs/interop/qmp-spec.txt)
#
#        The QMP client needs to explicitly enable QMP capabilities, otherwise
#        all the QMP capabilities will be turned off by default.
#
# Since: 0.13

##
# @VersionInfo:
#
# A description of QEMU's version.
#
# @qemu: The version of QEMU.  By current convention, a micro
#        version of 50 signifies a development branch.  A micro version
#        greater than or equal to 90 signifies a release candidate for
#        the next minor version.  A micro version of less than 50
#        signifies a stable release.
#
# @package: QEMU will always set this field to an empty string.  Downstream
#           versions of QEMU should set this to a non-empty string.  The
#           exact format depends on the downstream however it highly
#           recommended that a unique name is used.

# @LostTickPolicy:
#
# Policy for handling lost ticks in timer devices.  Ticks end up getting
# lost when, for example, the guest is paused.
#
# @discard: throw away the missed ticks and continue with future injection
#           normally.  The guest OS will see the timer jump ahead by a
#           potentially quite significant amount all at once, as if the
#           intervening chunk of time had simply not existed; needless to
#           say, such a sudden jump can easily confuse a guest OS which is
#           not specifically prepared to deal with it.  Assuming the guest
#           OS can deal correctly with the time jump, the time in the guest
#           and in the host should now match.
#
# @delay: continue to deliver ticks at the normal rate.  The guest OS will
#         not notice anything is amiss, as from its point of view time will
#         have continued to flow normally.  The time in the guest should now
#         be behind the time in the host by exactly the amount of time during
#         which ticks have been missed.
#
# @slew: deliver ticks at a higher rate to catch up with the missed ticks.
#        The guest OS will not notice anything is amiss, as from its point
#        of view time will have continued to flow normally.  Once the timer
#        has managed to catch up with all the missing ticks, the time in
#        the guest and in the host should match.

#
# This command will cause the QEMU process to exit gracefully.  While every
# attempt is made to send the QMP response before terminating, this is not
# guaranteed.  When using this interface, a premature EOF would not be
# unexpected.
#
# Since: 0.14.0
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "quit" }
# <- { "return": {} }
##
{ 'command': 'quit' }

##
# @stop:
#
# Stop all guest VCPU execution.
#
# Since:  0.14.0
#
# Notes: This function will succeed even if the guest is already in the stopped
#        state.  In "inmigrate" state, it will ensure that the guest
#        remains paused once migration finishes, as if the -S option was
#        passed on the command line.
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "stop" }

#
##

#
# Performs a hard reset of a guest.

# @system_powerdown:
#
# Requests that a guest perform a powerdown operation.
#
# Since: 0.14.0
#
# Notes: A guest may or may not respond to this command.  This command
#        returning does not indicate that a guest has accepted the request or
#        that it has shut down.  Many guests will respond to this command by
#        prompting the user in some way.
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "system_powerdown" }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
##
{ 'command': 'system_powerdown' }

##
# @memsave:
#
# Save a portion of guest memory to a file.

#
# Returns: Nothing on success
#

# @cont:
#
# Resume guest VCPU execution.
#
# Since:  0.14.0
#
# Returns:  If successful, nothing
#
# Notes: This command will succeed if the guest is currently running.  It
#        will also succeed if the guest is in the "inmigrate" state; in
#        this case, the effect of the command is to make sure the guest
#        starts once migration finishes, removing the effect of the -S
#        command line option if it was passed.
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "cont" }

##
# @x-exit-preconfig:
#
# Exit from "preconfig" state
#
# This command makes QEMU exit the preconfig state and proceed with
# VM initialization using configuration data provided on the command line
# and via the QMP monitor during the preconfig state. The command is only
# available during the preconfig state (i.e. when the --preconfig command
# line option was in use).
#
# Since 3.0
#
# Returns: nothing

# -> { "execute": "x-exit-preconfig" }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
##

##
# @system_wakeup:
#
# Wake up guest from suspend. If the guest has wake-up from suspend
# support enabled (wakeup-suspend-support flag from
# query-current-machine), wake-up guest from suspend if the guest is
# in SUSPENDED state. Return an error otherwise.
#
# Since:  1.1
#
# Returns:  nothing.
#
# Note: prior to 4.0, this command does nothing in case the guest
#       isn't suspended.
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "system_wakeup" }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
##

##
# @inject-nmi:
#
# Injects a Non-Maskable Interrupt into the default CPU (x86/s390) or all CPUs (ppc64).

#
# Returns:  If successful, nothing
#
# Since:  0.14.0
#
# Note: prior to 2.1, this command was only supported for x86 and s390 VMs
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "inject-nmi" }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
##
{ 'command': 'inject-nmi' }

##
# @balloon:
#
# Request the balloon driver to change its balloon size.
#
# @value: the target size of the balloon in bytes
#
# Returns: - Nothing on success
#          - If the balloon driver is enabled but not functional because the KVM
#            kernel module cannot support it, KvmMissingCap
#          - If no balloon device is present, DeviceNotActive
#
# Notes: This command just issues a request to the guest.  When it returns,
#        the balloon size may not have changed.  A guest can change the balloon
#        size independent of this command.
#
# Since: 0.14.0
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "balloon", "arguments": { "value": 536870912 } }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
##

# @human-monitor-command:
#
# Execute a command on the human monitor and return the output.
#
# @command-line: the command to execute in the human monitor
#
# @cpu-index: The CPU to use for commands that require an implicit CPU
#
# Features:
# @savevm-monitor-nodes: If present, HMP command savevm only snapshots
#                        monitor-owned nodes if they have no parents.
#                        This allows the use of 'savevm' with
#                        -blockdev. (since 4.2)
#
# Returns: the output of the command as a string
#
# Since: 0.14.0
#
# Notes: This command only exists as a stop-gap.  Its use is highly
#        discouraged.  The semantics of this command are not
#        guaranteed: this means that command names, arguments and
#        responses can change or be removed at ANY time.  Applications
#        that rely on long term stability guarantees should NOT
#        use this command.
#
#        Known limitations:
#
#        * This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
#          on state information (such as getfd) might not work
#
#        * Commands that prompt the user for data don't currently work
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "human-monitor-command",

# @change:
#
# This command is multiple commands multiplexed together.
#
# @device: This is normally the name of a block device but it may also be 'vnc'.
#          when it's 'vnc', then sub command depends on @target
#
# @target: If @device is a block device, then this is the new filename.
#          If @device is 'vnc', then if the value 'password' selects the vnc
#          change password command.   Otherwise, this specifies a new server URI
#          address to listen to for VNC connections.
#
# @arg: If @device is a block device, then this is an optional format to open
#       the device with.
#       If @device is 'vnc' and @target is 'password', this is the new VNC
#       password to set.  See change-vnc-password for additional notes.
#
# Returns: - Nothing on success.
#          - If @device is not a valid block device, DeviceNotFound
#
# Notes: This interface is deprecated, and it is strongly recommended that you
#        avoid using it.  For changing block devices, use
