[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/9] block: generic image streaming


From: Stefan Hajnoczi
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/9] block: generic image streaming
Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2011 13:52:22 +0000

This series adds the 'block_stream' command which copies the contents of a
backing file into the image file while the VM is running.  The series builds on
copy-on-read and zero detection features which I sent out recently and I
suggest grabbing my git tree to try it out without merging these dependencies
yourself:

http://repo.or.cz/w/qemu/stefanha.git/shortlog/refs/heads/image-streaming-api

The image streaming HMP/QMP commands are documented in the patch and also
described here:

http://wiki.qemu.org/Features/LiveBlockMigration/ImageStreamingAPI

The basic idea is to execute 'block_stream virtio0' while the guest is running.
Progress can be monitored using 'info block-jobs'.  When the streaming
operation completes it raises a QMP event.

Note: The last patch includes includes a Python test script called
test-stream.py, I do not propose to merge it.  When run in a QEMU source tree
it performs basic image streaming QMP tests.

Stefan Hajnoczi (9):
  coroutine: add co_sleep_ns() coroutine sleep function
  block: add BlockJob interface for long-running operations
  block: add image streaming block job
  block: rate-limit streaming operations
  qmp: add block_stream command
  qmp: add block_job_set_speed command
  qmp: add block_job_cancel command
  qmp: add query-block-jobs
  test: add image streaming test cases
