[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#524434: virt-manager: info blockstats not supported by this qemu

Package: virt-manager
Version: 0.7.0-1
Severity: normal


On an initial start of libvirtd, and the first connect of virt-manager to it,
libvirtd complains for a while (minutes) in the logs:

libvirtd: 08:14:16.141: error : this function is not supported by the hypervisor: 'info blockstats' not supported by this qemu
libvirtd: 08:14:17.142: error : this function is not supported by the hypervisor: 'info blockstats' not supported by this qemu
libvirtd: 08:14:18.147: error : this function is not supported by the hypervisor: 'info blockstats' not supported by this qemu
libvirtd: 08:14:19.151: error : this function is not supported by the hypervisor: 'info blockstats' not supported by this qemu
libvirtd: 08:14:20.155: error : this function is not supported by the hypervisor: 'info blockstats' not supported by this qemu
libvirtd: 08:14:21.164: error : this function is not supported by the hypervisor: 'info blockstats' not supported by this qemu

virt-manager is configured to obtain all possible statistics (so including
disk i/o). At this time all the disk i/o stats are shown with 0 (null).

At some time, libvirtd stops writing these log entries and the disk i/o
statistic values and graph start getting displayed in virt-manager.

This is reproduceable for a local libvirtd instance as well as a remote one.
