This patch series introduces the ability to save additional information for the domain state and exposes this information in virsh domstate. For example in the case of QEMU guest panic events, we can provide additional information like the crash reason or register state of the domain. This information usually gets logged in the domain log but for debugging it is useful to have it accessible from the client. Therefore, let's introduce a new public API function, virDomainGetStateParams, an extensible version of virDomainGetState, which returns the complete state of the domain, including newly introduced additional information. Let's also extend virsh domstate and introduce a new parameter --info to show the domain state, reason and additional information when available. virsh # domstate --info guest-1 crashed (panicked) s390.core = 0 s390.psw-mask = 0x0002000180000000 s390.psw-addr = 0x000000000010f146 s390.reason = disabled-wait v2 -> v3: * try to find a reasonable naming-scheme for parameters * make state/reason in virDomainGetStateParams optional * use new API only when requested * print additional information per line for easier consumption v1 -> v2: * refactored the public API according to discussions to provide a more machine-parsable interface Bjoern Walk (7): qemu: monitor: move event data structure to domain qemu: domain: store and update panic info lib: introduce virDomainGetStateParams function remote: implement remoteDomainGetStateParams qemu: implement qemuDomainGetStateParams virsh: domstate: report detailed state if available news: add entry for virDomainGetStateParams docs/news.xml | 11 +++ include/libvirt/libvirt-domain.h | 76 +++++++++++++++++ src/driver-hypervisor.h | 9 ++ src/libvirt-domain.c | 62 ++++++++++++++ src/libvirt_public.syms | 5 ++ src/qemu/qemu_domain.c | 80 +++++++++++++++++- src/qemu/qemu_domain.h | 47 +++++++++++ src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 126 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++- src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c | 53 +----------- src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h | 48 ++--------- src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c | 20 ++--- src/qemu/qemu_process.c | 2 +- src/remote/remote_daemon_dispatch.c | 50 +++++++++++ src/remote/remote_driver.c | 48 +++++++++++ src/remote/remote_protocol.x | 22 ++++- src/remote_protocol-structs | 13 +++ tools/virsh-domain-monitor.c | 94 +++++++++++++++++++-- tools/virsh.pod | 5 +- 18 files changed, 651 insertions(+), 120 deletions(-) -- 2.19.1 -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
