[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] new monitor func status

[Philipp Wehrheim <flipstar@gmx.net>]

Hey,

attached is a small patch that adds the new info subcommand - status.

The status indicates if the VM is running or paused this info makes
life for (stateless) Qemu/KVM frontends easier.
Since the info is just there why not make it available?

Please consider applying.
