Is there a reason for this restriction? Removing it would require
clarifying the state model, I suppose.

Should this return an error to the caller?

If the specified sample period is outside the min/max, should an error
be returned to the caller?

We only support query once for each calculation.
Otherwise, it could always query dirtyrate, but maybe the dirtyrate is calculated
long time ago.

There's nothing in the current interface that prevents this from being
the case already - the caller could initiate a 1 second sample, then
wait 24 hours to query the result.

Obviously this would generally be regarded as "d'oh - don't do that",
but the same argument would apply if the caller is allowed to query the
results multiple times.

Perhaps a complete solution would be to include information about the
sample period with the result. The caller could then determine whether
the sample is of adequate quality (sufficiently recent, taken over a
sufficiently long time period) for its' intended use.

You mean add timestamp when i calculate?
Actually, I do not want make it complicate for qemu code,
maybe it could be left for user to implement both two qmp commands
like in libvirt-api.

On the other hand, it really bother me that we need to reset calculating state
to make sure the state model could be restart in next calculation.

For now, i put it after query_dirty_rate_info is finished as you see, it should not be a good idea:(

Maybe it is better to initialize at the beginning of qmp_calc_dirty_rate().

You already have a timestamp, though I'm not sure if it is one that is
appropriate to report to a user.

I was thinking that you would include both the start time and duration
of the sample in the output of the query-dirty-rate QMP command, as well
as the dirty rate itself. That way the caller can make a decision about
whether the data is useful.

OK, i understand.
I may add it like this:
+##
+{ 'struct': 'DirtyRateInfo',
+  'data': {'dirty-rate': 'int64',
+           'status': 'DirtyRateStatus',
+           'start-timestamp': 'int64',
+           'calc-time': 'int64'} }
+
+##
the stat-timestamp would be initial_time which gets from qemu_clock_get_ms(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME)
at the beginning of calculation while calc_time is time-duration in microsecond.

But i reconsider that, it maybe still need to reset the CalculatingState as DIRTY_RATE_STATUS_UNSTARTED
here?

Initialization like:
void qmp_calc_dirty_rate(int64_t calc_time, Error **errp)
{
   XXXX

    if (CalculatingState == DIRTY_RATE_STATUS_MEASURING) {
        return;
    }


    (void)dirtyrate_set_state(&CalculatingState, CalculatingState,
                              DIRTY_RATE_STATUS_UNSTARTED);
    XXXX
}

It could not prevent concurrent scene which may lead to disorder state:(

The calc-time reported here should be in the same units as when it is
specified in calc-dirty-rate (seconds for both seems fine).

I suspect that providing the start-timestamp in seconds would also be
fine - it's not obvious that knowing the value in milliseconds adds much
value.
