[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/2] qmp: adding 'wakeup-suspend-support' in query-target

[Daniel Henrique Barboza <danielhb@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

When issuing the qmp/hmp 'system_wakeup' command, what happens in a
nutshell is:

- qmp_system_wakeup_request set runstate to RUNNING, sets a wakeup_reason
and notify the event
- in the main_loop, all vcpus are paused, a system reset is issued, all
subscribers of wakeup_notifiers receives a notification, vcpus are then
resumed and the wake up QAPI event is fired

Note that this procedure alone doesn't ensure that the guest will awake
from SUSPENDED state - the subscribers of the wake up event must take
action to resume the guest, otherwise the guest will simply reboot.

At this moment there are only two subscribers of the wake up event: one
in hw/acpi/core.c and another one in hw/i386/xen/xen-hvm.c. This means
that system_wakeup does not work as intended with other architectures.

However, only the presence of 'system_wakeup' is required for QGA to
support 'guest-suspend-ram' and 'guest-suspend-hybrid' at this moment.
This means that the user/management will expect to suspend the guest using
one of those suspend commands and then resume execution using system_wakeup,
regardless of the support offered in system_wakeup in the first place.

This patch adds a new flag called 'wakeup-suspend-support' in TargetInfo
that allows the caller to query if the guest supports wake up from
suspend via system_wakeup. It goes over the subscribers of the wake up
event and, if it's empty, it assumes that the guest does not support
wake up from suspend (and thus, pm-suspend itself).

This is the expected output of query-target when running a x86 guest:

{"execute" : "query-target"}
{"return": {"arch": "x86_64", "wakeup-suspend-support": true}}

This is the output when running a pseries guest:

{"execute" : "query-target"}
{"return": {"arch": "ppc64", "wakeup-suspend-support": false}}

With this extra tool, management can avoid situations where a guest
that does not have proper suspend/wake capabilities ends up in
inconsistent state (e.g.
https://github.com/open-power-host-os/qemu/issues/31).
