Is there some QMP command that lists the set of valid >> compression formats understood by a given qemu binary? No, patching the command line --help does NOT help libvirt.

(That said, you DO want to expose it in --help output; I'm just complaining that --help output alone is not enough). -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
