query-block's specification documents response member "type" with
values "hd", "cdrom", "floppy", "unknown".
Its value is unreliable: a block device used as floppy has type
"floppy" if created with if=floppy, but type "hd" if created with
if=none.
That's because with if=none, the type is at best a declaration of
intent: the drive can be connected to any guest device. Its type is
really the guest device's business. Reporting it here is wrong.
No known user of QMP uses "type". It's unlikely that any unknown
users exist, because its value is useless unless you know how the
block device was created. But then you also know the true value.
Fixing the broken value risks breaking (hypothetical!) clients that
somehow rely on the current behavior. Not fixing the value risks
breaking (hypothetical!) clients that rely on the value to be
accurate. Can't entirely avoid hypothetical lossage. Change the
value to be always "unknown".
This makes "info block" always report "type=unknown". Pointless.
Change it to not report the type.

Add a monitor command that allows resizing of block devices while
qemu is running. It uses the existing bdrv_truncate method already
used by qemu-img to do it's work. Compared to qemu-img the size
parsing is very simplicistic, but I think having a properly numering
object is more useful for non-humand monitor users than having
the units and relative resize parsing.
For SCSI devices the new size can be updated in Linux guests by
doing the following shell command:
echo > /sys/class/scsi_device/0:0:0:0/device/rescan
For ATA devices I don't know of a way to update the block device
size in Linux system, and for virtio-blk the next two patches
will provide an automatic update of the size when this command
is issued on the host.

This file contains a copy of the following information from the
qemu-monitor.hx file:
o QObject handlers entries
o QMP documentation (all SQMP/EQMP sections)
Right now it's only used to generate the QMP docs in QMP/, but
next commits will turn this into QMP's command dispatch table.
It's important to note that QObject handlers entries are going
to get duplicated: they will exist in both QMP's and HMP's
dispatch tables.
This will be fixed in the near future, when we add a proper
QMP call interface and HMP is converted to use it. This way we
can completely drop QObject handlers entries from HMP's tables.
NOTE: HMP specific constructions, like "q|quit", have been dropped.

This patch adds the trace-file command:
trace-file [on|off|flush]
Open, close, or flush the trace file. If no argument is given,
the status of the trace file is displayed.
The trace file is turned on by default but is only written out when the
trace buffer becomes full. The flush operation can be used to force
write out at any time.
Turning off the trace file does not change the state of trace events;
tracing will continue to the trace buffer. When the trace file is off,
use "info trace" to display the contents of the trace buffer in memory.

trace: Add options to specify trace file name at startup and runtime
This patch adds an optional command line switch '-trace' to specify the
filename to write traces to, when qemu starts.
Eg, If compiled with the 'simple' trace backend,
[temp@system]$ qemu -trace FILENAME IMAGE
Allows the binary traces to be written to FILENAME instead of the option
set at config-time.
Also, this adds monitor sub-command 'set' to trace-file commands to
dynamically change trace log file at runtime.
Eg,
(qemu)trace-file set FILENAME
This allows one to set trace outputs to FILENAME from the default
specified at startup.

This patch adds support for dynamically enabling/disabling of trace events.
This is done by internally maintaining each trace event's state, and
permitting logging of data from a trace event only if it is in an
'active' state.
Monitor commands added :
1) info trace-events : to view all available trace events and
their state.
2) trace-event NAME on|off : to enable/disable data logging from a
given trace event.
Eg, trace-event paio_submit off
disables logging of data when
paio_submit is hit.
By default, all trace-events are disabled. One can enable desired trace-events
via the monitor.

One of the most important missing feature in QMP today is its
supported commands documentation.
The plan is to make it part of self-description support, however
self-description is a big task we have been postponing for a
long time now and still don't know when it's going to be done.
In order not to compromise QMP adoption and make users' life easier,
this commit adds a simple text documentation which fully describes
all QMP supported commands.
This is not ideal for a number of reasons (harder to maintain,
text-only, etc) but does improve the current situation. To avoid at
least divering from the user monitor help and texi snippets, QMP bits
are also maintained inside qemu-monitor.hx, and hxtool is extended to
generate a single text file from them.

Short story: We don't want pci_add in QMP. Long story follows.
pci_add can do two things:
* Hot plug a PCI NIC. device_add is more general.
* Hot plug a PCI disk controller, and a drive connected to it.
The controller is either virtio-blk-pci (if=virtio) or lsi53c895a
(if=scsi). With the latter, the drive is optional. Use drive_add to
hotplug additional SCSI drives. Except drive_add is not available in
QMP.
device_add is more general for controllers and the guest part of
drives. I'm working on a more general alternative for the host part
of drives.
Why am I proposing to remove pci_add from QMP before its replacement is
ready? I want it out sooner rather than later, because it isn't fully
functional (errors and drive_add are missing), and we do not plan to
complete the job. In other words, it's not really usable over QMP now,
and it's not what we want for QMP anyway. Since we don't want it to be
used over QMP, we should take it out, not leave it around as a trap for
the uninitiated.
Dan Berrange confirmed that libvirt has no need for pci_add & friends
over QMP.
