As the command name implies, this command suspends the guest to disk.
The suspend operation is implemented by two functions: bios_supports_mode()
and guest_suspend(). Both functions are generic enough to be used by
other suspend modes (introduced by next commits).
Both functions will try to use the scripts provided by the pm-utils
package if it's available. If it's not available, a manual method,
which consists of directly writing to '/sys/power/state', will be used.
To reap terminated children, a new signal handler is installed in the
parent to catch SIGCHLD signals and a non-blocking call to waitpid()
is done to collect their exit statuses. The statuses, however, are
discarded.
The approach used to query the guest for suspend support deserves some
explanation. It's implemented by bios_supports_mode() and shown below:
qemu-ga
|
create pipe
|
fork()
-----------------
| |
| |
| fork()
| --------------------------
| | |
| | |
| | exec('pm-is-supported')
| |
| wait()
| write exit status to pipe
| exit
|
read pipe
This might look complex, but the resulting code is quite simple.
The purpose of that approach is to allow qemu-ga to reap its children
(semi-)automatically from its SIGCHLD handler.
Implementing this the obvious way, that's, doing the exec() call from
the first child process, would force us to introduce a more complex way
to reap qemu-ga's children. Like registering PIDs to be reaped and
having a way to wait for them when returning their exit status to
qemu-ga is necessary. The approach explained above avoids that complexity.

This allows qemu-ga to function as a Windows service:
- to install the service (will auto-start on boot):
qemu-ga --service install
- to start the service:
net start qemu-ga
- to stop the service:
net stop qemu-ga
- to uninstall service:
qemu-ga --service uninstall
Original patch by Gal Hammer <ghammer@redhat.com>
This adds a win32 channel implementation that makes qemu-ga functional
on Windows using virtio-serial (unix-listen/isa-serial not currently
implemented). Unlike with the posix implementation, we do not use
GIOChannel for the following reasons:
- glib calls stat() on an fd to check whether S_IFCHR is set, which is
the case for virtio-serial on win32. Because of that, a one-time
check to determine whether the channel is readable is done by making
a call to PeekConsoleInput(), which reports the underlying handle is
not a valid console handle, and thus we can never read from the
channel.
- if one goes as far as to "trick" glib into thinking it is a normal
file descripter, the buffering is done in such a way that data
written to the output stream will subsequently result in that same
data being read back as if it were input, causing an error loop.
furthermore, a forced flush of the channel only moves the data into a
secondary buffer managed by glib, so there's no way to prevent output
from getting read back as input.
The implementation here ties into the glib main loop by implementing a
custom GSource that continually submits asynchronous/overlapped I/O to
fill an GAChannel-managed read buffer, and tells glib to poll the
corresponding event handle for a completion whenever there is no
data/RPC in the read buffer to notify the main application about.
Various stubs and #ifdefs to compile for Windows using mingw
cross-build. Still has 1 linker error due to a dependency on the
forthcoming win32 versions of the GAChannel/transport class.
This is mostly in preparation for the win32 port, which won't use
GIO channels for reasons that will be made clearer later. Here the
GAChannel class is just a loose wrapper around GIOChannel
calls/callbacks, but we also roll in the logic/configuration for
various channel types and managing unix socket connections, which makes
the abstraction much more complete and further aids in the win32 port
since isa-serial/unix-listen will not be supported initially.
There's also a bit of refactoring in the main logic to consolidate the
exit paths so we can do common cleanup for things like pid files, which
weren't always cleaned up previously.
This adds a command-line option, -b/--blacklist, that accepts a
comma-seperated list of RPCs to disable, or prints a list of
available RPCs if passed "?".
In consequence this also adds general blacklisting and RPC listing
facilities to the new QMP dispatch/registry facilities, should the
QMP monitor ever have a need for such a thing.
Ideally, to avoid support/compatability issues in the future,
blacklisting guest agent functionality will be the exceptional
case, but we add the functionality here to handle guest administrators
with specific requirements.

As far as I can tell, there isn't a dependency on gthread. Also, the only use
of gio was to enable GSocket to accept a unix domain socket.
Since GSocket isn't available on OpenSuSE 11.1, let's just remove that
dependency.

This is the actual guest daemon, it listens for requests over a
virtio-serial/isa-serial/unix socket channel and routes them through
to dispatch routines, and writes the results back to the channel in
a manner similar to QMP.
A shorthand invocation:
qemu-ga -d
Is equivalent to:
qemu-ga -m virtio-serial -p /dev/virtio-ports/org.qemu.guest_agent.0 \
-f /var/run/qemu-ga.pid -d
