Xen COLO depend on qemu COLO replication function.
So, We need new qmp commands for Xen to use qemu replication.

Corresponding libxl patches already in xen.git.

We can call this qmp command to start/stop replication outside of qemu.
Like Xen colo need this function.

I know nothing about "Xen colo", but I'll try anyway.

I *guess* "Xen colo" is a long-running activity, and the new commands
interact with it.  Correct?

Reports only that there is an error, throws away the actual error
message.  Naive question: could the error message be good to know for
the QMP user?

Do you expect more status values in the future?

If yes, what should clients do when they see a status value they don't
know?

If no, why not simply use bool?

The naming is a bit unfortunate: query-xen-replication-status returns
ReplicationResult, which contains ReplicationStatus.

Yes, you are right.
By the way this patch has been reviewed by Eric black.

Yes, Xen colo will handle it.

We will add other status for it, now, that's enough.

We need to build a generic framework for interacting with long-running
activities.  But asking you to wait for it wouldn't be fair.

Is that "yes, the QMP user could use the error message, but we're not
giving it to him regardless", or "no, the QMP user does not need to
know, and that's because we don't give it to him"?

Even if we want QMP clients to treat all errors the same, transmitting
the error message can still be useful for troubleshooting.  QMP itself
does that.  Quoting qmp-spec.txt:

    2.4.2 error
    -----------

    The format of an error response is:

    { "error": { "class": json-string, "desc": json-string }, "id": json-value }

     Where,

    - The "class" member contains the error class name (eg. "GenericError")
--> - The "desc" member is a human-readable error message. Clients should
-->   not attempt to parse this message.
    - The "id" member contains the transaction identification associated with
      the command execution if issued by the Client

What should a QMP client do when it sees a ReplicationStatus value other
than 'error' and 'normal'?

You need to provide some guidance, or else you won't be able to add
status values without breaking clients!

Blake, but you're not the first to mis-type it.

Ah, as in:

if (err) {
  result->status = REPLICATION_STATUS_ERROR;
  result->has_desc = true;
  result->desc = ...extract string from err
} else {
  result->status = REPLICATION_STATUS_NORMAL;
}

by modifying the JSON [1]

Off-hand, what other states do you envision adding?

[1] the modification would be:

'data': { 'status': 'ReplicationStatus', '*desc': 'str' }

with documentation that @desc is #optional, is only for human
consumption, and is only present when @status indicates an error.

I got your point, but I don't understand this:

result->desc = ...extract string from err

Where we can get the string from err?
Can you give me a example?

OK, I will change it to bool in next version.

I don't know how to get the 'desc'.
Please tell me.

See qmp_query_migrate (migration/migration.c) for similar code that
populates an optional description member when an error is present:

    case MIGRATION_STATUS_FAILED:
        info->has_status = true;
        if (s->error) {
            info->has_error_desc = true;
            info->error_desc = g_strdup(error_get_pretty(s->error));
        }
        break;
