47# @YankInstance:
48#
49# A yank instance can be yanked with the @yank qmp command to recover from a
50# hanging QEMU.
51#
52# Currently implemented yank instances:
53#  - nbd block device:
54#    Yanking it will shut down the connection to the nbd server without
55#    attempting to reconnect.
56#  - socket chardev:
57#    Yanking it will shut down the connected socket.
58#  - migration:
59#    Yanking it will shut down all migration connections. Unlike
60#    @migrate_cancel, it will not notify the migration process, so migration
61#    will go into @failed state, instead of @cancelled state. @yank should be
62#    used to recover from hangs.

64# Since: 6.0

76# Try to recover from hanging QEMU by yanking the specified instances. See
