[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC 2/2] qmp: New command qom-new |
Date: |
Thu, 24 May 2012 13:43:04 +0200 |
To create objects via QMP.
Test case:
$ upstream-qemu --enable-kvm -S -m 384 -vnc :0 -monitor stdio -chardev
socket,id=qmp,path=test-qmp,server=on,wait=off -mon mode=control,chardev=qmp
Conversation on the qmp socket:
{"QMP": {"version": {"qemu": {"micro": 93, "minor": 0, "major": 1}, "package":
""}, "capabilities": []}}
{ "execute": "qmp_capabilities" }
{"return": {}}
{"execute":"qom-new","arguments":{"parent":"/xxx", "prop-name":"test-qmp-new",
"type-name":"xxx"}}
{"error": {"class": "DeviceNotFound", "desc": "Device '/xxx' not found",
"data": {"device": "/xxx"}}}
{"execute":"qom-new","arguments":{"parent":"/machine",
"prop-name":"test-qmp-new", "type-name":"xxx"}}
{"error": {"class": "InvalidParameterValue", "desc": "Parameter 'type-name'
expects a type name", "data": {"name": "type-name", "expected": "a type name"}}}
{"execute":"qom-new","arguments":{"parent":"/machine",
"prop-name":"test-qmp-new", "type-name":"container"}}
{"return": "/machine/test-qmp-new"}
{"execute":"qom-list","arguments":{"path":"/machine"}}
{"return": [{"name": "test-qmp-new", "type": "child<container>"}, {"name":
"i440fx", "type": "child<i440FX-pcihost>"}, {"name": "unattached", "type":
"child<container>"}, {"name": "peripheral", "type": "child<container>"},
{"name": "peripheral-anon", "type": "child<container>"}]}
Note: qdev objects (subtype of TYPE_DEVICE) created with qom-new lack
additional magic performed by qdev_try_create(), and almost certainly
won't work.
