When QEMU guest finishes its shutdown sequence, qemu stops virtual CPUs and when started with -no-shutdown waits for us to kill it using SGITERM. Since QEMU is flushing its internal buffers, some time may pass before QEMU actually dies. We mistakenly used "paused" state (and events) for this which is quite confusing since users may see a domain going to pause while they expect it to shutdown. Since we already have "shutdown" state with "the domain is being shut down" semantics, we should use it for this state. However, the state didn't have a corresponding event so I created one and called its detail as VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_SHUTDOWN_FINISHED (guest OS finished its shutdown sequence) with the intent to add VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_SHUTDOWN_STARTED in the future if we have a sufficiently capable guest agent that can notify us when guest OS starts to shutdown.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
