v3:
- Replaced the no_reboot and no_shutdown internal flags with enumerations that hold the current action
selected in case of reboot or shutdown events. The same approach is used for panic and watchdog events.
- Ensured that -no-shutdown option overrides any previously issued action panic=poweroff setting.
- Added TODO comment to add more panic actions if viable (debug, reset).
- Modified QMP command to take multiple optional args specifying actions for each event type,
and added 'allow-preconfig': true
v2:
- Replaced the individual qmp commands in patch 3/4 for a generic set-action
command that takes a RunStateAction parameter, specifying an event|action pair.
- Removed qmp_ prefix from X_set_action() functions in runstate-action.c
***
This is a follow up to the proposal to add a "-no-panicstop" option to QEMU that would allow us to
control whether the VM is paused or allowed to continue running without intervention from a management layer
when a guest panic occurs. See the inital thread and replies for details:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/1601606494-1154-1-git-send-email-alejandro.j.jimenez@oracle.com/
From that discussion came a request for a generic mechanism to group options like -no-shutdown, -no-reboot, etc,
that specify an action taken by QEMU in response to a guest event (reboot, shutdown, panic, and watchdog
expiration are the current options). The existing options would translate to the new option, like:
* -no-reboot --> "-action reboot=shutdown"
* -no-shutdown --> "-action shutdown=pause"
Please share any questions or comments.
Regards,
Alejandro

Several command line options currently in use are meant to modify
the behavior of QEMU in response to certain guest events like:
-no-reboot, -no-shutdown, -watchdog-action.
These can be grouped into a single option of the form:
-action event=action
Which can be used to specify the existing options above in the
following format:
-action reboot=none|shutdown
-action shutdown=poweroff|pause
-action watchdog=reset|shutdown|poweroff|pause|debug|none|inject-nmi
This is done in preparation for adding yet another option of this
type, which modifies the QEMU behavior when a guest panic occurs.

From: Alejandro Jimenez @ 2020-12-11 16:52 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: qemu-devel; +Cc: david.edmondson, pbonzini, mihai.carabas
The current default action of pausing a guest after a panic event
is received leaves the responsibility to resume guest execution to the
management layer. The reasons for this behavior are discussed here:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/52148F88.5000509@redhat.com/
However, in instances like the case of older guests (Linux and
Windows) using a pvpanic device but missing support for the
PVPANIC_CRASHLOADED event, and Windows guests using the hv-crash
enlightenment, it is desirable to allow the guests to continue
running after sending a PVPANIC_PANICKED event. This allows such
guests to proceed to capture a crash dump and automatically reboot
without intervention of a management layer.
Add an option to avoid stopping a VM after a panic event is received,
by passing:
-action panic=none
in the command line arguments, or during runtime by using an upcoming
QMP command.

Add a QMP command to allow for the behaviors specified by the
-action event=action command line option to be set at runtime.
The new command is named set-action and takes optional
arguments with an event and a corresponding action to take.
Example:
-> { "execute": "set-action",
"arguments": {
"reboot": "none",
"shutdown": "poweroff",
"panic": "none",
"watchdog": "debug" } }
<- { "return": {} }

Test the scenario where the -action panic=none parameter is used to
signal that the VM must continue executing after a guest panic
occurs.

Thanks, this looks good.
(Actually there are a bunch of changes needed for other patches that I
have queued, but I can take care of that. Basically, I am moving
command line parsing from softmmu/runstate-action.c to softmmu/vl.c
because we're trying to move all command line stuff there + in turn make
vl.c use QMP commands as much as possible).
