[Qemu-devel] 答复: Re: [PATCH] qemu-ga: addguest-network-get-interface-stat command

in some cases， nic statistics from guest is different from  QEMU backend 
device,when guest network drops packets.

 We can know the real reason by monitor guest network statistics in the case.

In most cases you can already monitor guest network traffic from the
statistics on the QEMU backend device (ie tap device). The exception
is when doing PCI device assignment. Is the latter the reason why you
need to add this functionality instead of just quuerying the host
backend ?

There have been a lot of proposals for new QEMU geust agent commands in
the past few weeks

 - NIC statistics
 - Logged in users
 - Timezone offset
 - Hostname
 - OS version / product

This makes me wonder what our intended scope is for the guest agent ? Are we
happy to add arbitrary functionality to the guest agent, allowing it grow in
size & complexity without bound. Or is it better to restrict it to tasks which
are needed in order to coordinate management of the host virtualization layer
and leave general purpose guest OS management to another app.

Daniel
