Here's my sample output: # virsh Welcome to virsh, the virtualization interactive terminal. Type: 'help' for help with commands 'quit' to quit virsh # dommemstat f17 actual 2097152 This was tested on F16 x86_64 (fully updated) As far as I know, the kernel has all of the support necessary for this. The commits highlighted in the original bug have long been in the upstream kernel. I believe this should be reported against qemu, as it seems to have disabled the guest-provided stats. It seems there is some kind of long standing problem with them and they haven't solved it yet. (In reply to comment #2) > As far as I know, the kernel has all of the support necessary for this.

QEMU upstream still lacks some infrastructure that will allow guests to send such stats asynchronously to qemu. Work is in progress, but it's more likely that this will be available in the timeframe for Fedora 18. F16 may never get this functionality. Ok, so; leave this open until then or mark it as WONTFIX ? This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. Marking as WONTFIX for F16 per comment #3 |
