[Qemu-devel] [PULL 27/36] monitor: send event when command queue full

[Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>]

From: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>

Set maximum QMP command queue length to 8.  If the queue is full,
instead of queuing the command, we directly return a "command-dropped"
event, telling the client that a specific command is dropped.

Note that this flow control mechanism is only valid if OOB is enabled.
If it's not, the effective queue length will always be 1, which strictly
follows original behavior of QMP command handling (which never drops
messages).
