Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server] fix #6207: vm status: cache last disk read/write values
Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2025 12:15:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250922101749.34397-1-f.ebner@proxmox.com> (raw)

If disk read/write cannot be queried because of QMP timeout, they
should not be reported as 0, but the last value should be re-used.
Otherwise, the difference between that reported 0 and the next value,
when the stats are queried successfully, will show up as a huge spike
in the RRD graphs.

Invalidate the cache when there is no PID or the PID changed.
