[PATCH 0/3] qemu: add an API for "query-stats" QMP command

QEMU is gaining introspectable statistics which can be queried via the "query-stats" QMP command. This patchset aims to add an API for the same. The returned JSON for "query-stats" is an array of objects containing their own respective array of statistics. Patch 1 adds the API which returns the deserialized JSON in the form of a GPtrArray of GHashTables. Patch 2 adds the "query-stats" to QEMU capabilities. Patch 3 uses the API to query the halt poll success time and the halt poll failure time. v2 -> v3 ======== Sorry for the late patchset, I was under the impression I had sent it on Monday but apparently, I did not. [1/3]: - use a single enum for all the statistics. - use QEMU_MONITOR_QUERY_STATS_NAME_LAST as the sentinel value for the provider constructor. - relevant changes to enum values. [2/3]: - fix comment spacing [3/3] - better checks v1 -> v2 ======== I have been tinkering with the v1 patchset and have rewrote the v2 patches a couple of times. I believe the current patchset is still not perfect and would appreciate some reviews. I have another patch or two written but they do not make any significant changes to the current patchset. [1/3]: - use virBitmap instead of an array of strings for statistics. - add enums for the stat names and add qemuMonitorQueryStatsNameTypeToString to switch between the "ToString" functions based on the target type. - change qemuMonitorQueryStatsProviderNew to a variadic function that takes stat enum values with the sentinel value being -1. [2/3]: - No changes [3/3]: - Add relevant monitor related checks to check if the domain is active. - Acquire and release qemuMonitorObj lock before and after calling qemuMonitorQueryStats respectively. - Add the check for privileged access.
