Upstream qemu 1.4 added some drive-mirror tunables not present when it was first introduced in 1.3. Management apps may want to set these in some cases (for example, without tuning granularity down to sector size, a copy may end up occupying more bytes than the original because an entire cluster is copied even when only a sector within the cluster is dirty, although tuning it down results in more CPU time to do the copy). I haven't personally needed to use the parameters, but since they exist, and since the new API supports virTypedParams, we might as well expose them. Since the tuning parameters aren't often used, and omitted from the QMP command when unspecified, I think it is safe to rely on qemu 1.3 to issue an error about them being unsupported, rather than trying to create a new capability bit in libvirt. Meanwhile, all versions of qemu from 1.4 to 2.1 have a bug where a bad granularity (such as non-power-of-2) gives a poor message: error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'drive-mirror': Invalid parameter 'drive-virtio-disk0' because of abuse of QERR_INVALID_PARAMETER (which is supposed to name the parameter that was given a bad value, rather than the value passed to some other parameter). I don't see that a capability check will help, so we'll just live with it (and it has since been improved in upstream qemu). * src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h (qemuMonitorDriveMirror): Add parameters. * src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c (qemuMonitorDriveMirror): Likewise. * src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h (qemuMonitorJSONDriveMirror): Likewise. * src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c (qemuMonitorJSONDriveMirror): Likewise. * src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainBlockCopyCommon): 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.
