Hmm, so this calls for a new command line argument to control behaviour, similar to what we do for disk werror, eg something like --onpanic "report|pause|stop|..." where report - emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED only pause - emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED and pause VM stop - emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED and quit VM stop - emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED and quit VM This would map fairly well into libvirt, where we already have config parameters for controlling what todo with a guest when it panics.
