Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 6/7] qemu: monitor: Add support for ACPI_DEVICE_OST event handling

The event is emitted on ACPI OSPM Status Indication events. ACPI standard documentation describes the method as: This object is an optional control method that is invoked by OSPM to indicate processing status to the platform. During device ejection, device hot add, or other event processing, OSPM may need to perform specific handshaking with the platform. OSPM may also need to indicate to the platform its inability to complete a requested operation; for example, when a user presses an ejection button for a device that is currently in use or is otherwise currently incapable of being ejected. In this case, the processing of the ACPI Eject Request notification by OSPM fails. OSPM may indicate this failure to the platform through the invocation of the _OST control method. As a result of the status notification indicating ejection failure, the platform may take certain action including reissuing the notification or perhaps turning on an appropriate indicator light to signal the failure to the user.
