[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/5] QMP wrappers for VM snapshot operations

["Denis V. Lunev" <den@openvz.org>]

EFI based VM with pflash storage for NVRAM could not be snapshoted as
libvirt configures storage as 'raw' and writable. OK, this is a libvirt
problem.

Another problem is that libvirt can not detect this failure at all
as it uses HMP for this operation. This create snapshot/delete snapshot
sequence passes silently.

The patchset adds QMP wrappers for the purpose.

At the moment I have placed 2.6 version into QAPI. Though (if you feel
appropriate) I can change it to 2.5 :) This is up to you to decide.

Please note, this patchset is made on top of
  [PATCH for 2.5 v8 0/10] dataplane snapshot fixes
