[pve-devel] [PATCH-SERIES v2 qemu-server] improve error detection/messages for some block jobs

[Fiona Ebner]

Changes in v2:
    * Also do not auto-dismiss for the stream job for the new
      live-import feature.

When auto-dismiss=true (the default), a failed job can disappear very
quickly from the job list and there might not be any chance to see the
error in the result of 'query-block-jobs'. For jobs with $completion
being 'auto', like 'block-stream', it couldn't even be detected that
the job failed.

Jobs with auto-dismiss=false on the other hand, will wait in
'concluded' state until manually dismissed. For those, it will be
possible to query the error if the job failed.

This series makes 'drive-mirror' and 'block-stream' jobs do just that.

There doesn't seem to be a way to have only failed jobs stay around,
e.g. something like auto-dismiss=on-success.


Fiona Ebner (4):
  blockjob: anticipate jobs with auto-dismiss=false for better error
    messages and detection
  mirror: do not auto-dismiss to allow getting error message from job
  live restore: do not auto-dismiss stream job to improve error message
    and detection
  live import: do not auto-dismiss stream job to improve error message
    and detection
