Most of the command-line options are identical to their QEMU counterparts. Perhaps Sphinx hxtool integration could be extended to extract documentation for individual command-line options so they can be shared. For now the qemu-storage-daemon simply refers to the qemu(1) man page where the command-line options are identical.

It can export disk images, run block job operations, and +perform other disk-related operations. The daemon is controlled via a QMP +monitor and initial configuration from the command-line. + +The daemon offers the following subset of QEMU features: + +* Block nodes +* Block jobs +* Block exports +* Throttle groups +* Character devices +* Crypto and secrets +* QMP +* IOThreads + +Commands can be sent over a QEMU Monitor Protocol (QMP) connection. See the +:manpage:`qemu-storage-daemon-qmp-ref(7)` manual page for a description of the +commands. + +The daemon runs until it is stopped using the ``quit`` QMP command or +SIGINT/SIGHUP/SIGTERM. + +**Warning:** Never modify images in use by a running virtual machine or any +other process; this may destroy the image. Also, be aware that querying an +image that is being modified by another process may encounter inconsistent +state. + +Options +------- + +.. program:: qemu-storage-daemon + +Standard options: + +.. option:: -h, --help + + Display help and exit + +.. option:: -V, --version + + Display version information and exit + +.. option:: -T, --trace [[enable=]PATTERN][,events=FILE][,file=FILE] + + .. include:: ../qemu-option-trace.rst.inc + +.. option:: --blockdev BLOCKDEVDEF + + is a block node definition.

Both + ``addr.type=unix,addr.path=`` for UNIX domain sockets and + ``addr.type=fd,addr.str=`` for file descriptor passing are supported. + ``logical-block-size`` sets the logical block size in bytes (the default is + 512). ``num-queues`` sets the number of virtqueues (the default is 1). + +.. option:: --monitor MONITORDEF + + is a QMP monitor definition. See the :manpage:`qemu(1)` manual page for + a description of QMP monitor properties. A common QMP monitor definition + configures a monitor on character device ``char1``:: + + --monitor chardev=char1 + +.. option:: --nbd-server addr.type=inet,addr.host=,addr.port=[,tls-creds=][,tls-authz=][,max-connections=] + --nbd-server addr.type=unix,addr.path=[,tls-creds=][,tls-authz=][,max-connections=] + + is a server for NBD exports.
