Block job commands are not part of upstream qemu until 1.1; and proper support of job completion and cancellation depends on being able to receive QMP events, which implies the JSON monitor. Additionally, some early versions of block job commands were backported to RHEL qemu, but these versions lacked asynchronous job cancellation and partial block pull, so there are several patches that will still be needed in this area of libvirt code to support both flavors of block job commands. Due to earlier patches in libvirt, we are guaranteed that all versions of qemu that support block job commands already require libvirt to use the JSON monitor. That means that the text version of block jobs will not be used, and having to refactor two copies of the block job handlers makes no sense. So instead, we delete the text handlers. * src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c (qemuMonitorBlockJob): Drop text monitor support. * src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.h (qemuMonitorTextBlockJob): Delete. * src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c (qemuMonitorTextParseBlockJobOne) (qemuMonitorTextParseBlockJob, qemuMonitorTextBlockJob): Likewise.
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.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
