Qemu once supported following memory stats which will returned by "query_balloon":
stat_put(dict, "actual", actual); stat_put(dict, "mem_swapped_in", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_SWAP_IN]); stat_put(dict, "mem_swapped_out", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_SWAP_OUT]); stat_put(dict, "major_page_faults", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MAJFLT]); stat_put(dict, "minor_page_faults", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MINFLT]); stat_put(dict, "free_mem", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MEMFREE]); stat_put(dict, "total_mem", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MEMTOT]);
But it later disabled all the stats except "actual" by commit 07b0403dfc2b2ac179ae5b48105096cc2d03375a.
libvirt doesn't parse "actual", so user will always see a empty result with "virsh dommemstat $domain". Even qemu haven't disabled the stats, we should support parsing "actual". --- include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in | 4 +++- src/libvirt.c | 2 ++ src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c | 12 ++++++++++++ tools/virsh.c | 2 ++ 4 files changed, 19 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)

Is this the memory size occupied by the balloon? Then I suggest we call this VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_STAT_BALLOON instead or VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_STAT_ACTUAL_BALLOON if you want to keep the 'actual' in there. Matthias
