Summary
qemu has many commands attached to the monitor interface that are currently inaccessible over QMP (QEMU Machine Protocol). I intend to give continuity to this effort, converting the remaining functions to the QObject API. While doing this conversion, the QObject API can be updated to improve its functionality when required.
More details about the protocol: http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/MonitorProtocol

do_info_netdevices
We were struggling to get the output of 'info network' exactly the same and juggling to work around the lack of a pattern when formatting VLANClientState.info_str. So we decided to add a new and clean command, and leave 'info network' as it is.
This is the latest patch:

do_savevm/do_loadvm
After talking with Chris Lalancette from libvirt, we need snapshot inheritance in qemu, before converting do_savevm/do_loadvm to QMP. I've analyzed the code and I there is some hairy things to do. There are more people working on this code, so I will try to get a go before starting coding.
Source code
The working being done can be followed here:
