thanks Eric. Just for clarification, if the page is swaped out from

virDomainMemoryPeek is limited to reading what is in the guest's RAM.
As I said earlier, if you are interested in reading what is in the
guest's disk, you might find libguestfs to be a more powerful tool.
Is there any example program that uses virDomainMemoryPeek function.
Alas, no one has yet wired up virsh to call virDomainMemoryPeek (patches
welcome), and I don't personally have any example programs that use it.
Rich Jones might have some better ideas (as both author of libguestfs,
and as the implementer of virDomainMemoryPeek).
