In general, it is better if the client controls the filename, and not
qemu.  This is because things like libvirt like to run qemu in a
highly-constrained environment, where the caller can pass in a file
descriptor that qemu cannot itself open().  So returning a filename is
pointless if the filename was already provided by the caller.

2015-10-15 23:44 ` [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] QEMU patch for libvmi to introspect QEMU/kvm virtual machines. Usually this patch is distributed with libvmi, but, it might be more useful to have it in the QEMU source permanently valerio
