We probably ought to enhance the docs to mention '(since 1.8)' for this
field (and likewise for other enum values added after the original
introduction of the enum).
Hi Eric,
Sure, will do.
BTW, I was hoping this feature could be accepted and merged to QEMU 1.7
release.
Last time we added a new user-visible runstate, it broke migration with
older libvirt versions that weren't prepared to see the new state (hmm,
I need to check if libvirt has fixed that in the meantime; adding a
cc...). Paolo's advice at the time was that it is okay to require a new
libvirt when using a new qemu, and that libvirt should be taught to
treat all unknown RunState as if they were 'running'; although for this
particular addition it might be nicer to have libvirt lump 'inmigrate'
and 'flipping-migrate' to the same usage.
I am not sure whether these two runstate could be lumped with same usage
in libvirt. Whatever, looks like 'inmigrate' has a transition from 'prelaunch'
to it in QEMU, which reminds me that it may need to add another transition
from 'prelaunch' to 'flipping-migrate' too.
