Hi Michal, 

Thanks for testing that for me.

When I try to run the latter command which was:

virsh qemu-monitor-command Shawn '{"execute":"pmemsave", "arguments":
{"val":0, "size":536870912, "filename":"/tmp/testimage.dump"}}'

I get:

Unknown command: '{\"execute\":\"pmemsave\",'

Any ideas?

My versions are:

Compiled against library: libvir 0.9.2
Using library: libvir 0.9.2
Using API: QEMU 0.9.2
Running hypervisor: QEMU 0.14.1

If qemu is running under non-root user I wouldn't expect it to be able to
access $HOME.

Although I must admit this doesn't play nice. I can get two different
results:

virsh # qemu-monitor-command --hmp f16 "pmemsave 0 1024 /tmp/dummy.img"
invalid char in expression

virsh # qemu-monitor-command f16 '{"execute":"pmemsave", "arguments":
{"val":0, "size":1024, "filename":"/tmp/dummy.img"}}'
{"return":{},"id":"libvirt-12"}

In the latter case image is successfully created. But I am not sure whose
bug is it - libvirt or qemu.
