  38# @JobStatus:
  39#
  40# Indicates the present state of a given job in its lifetime.
  41#
  42# @undefined: Erroneous, default state. Should not ever be visible.
  43#
  44# @created: The job has been created, but not yet started.
  45#
  46# @running: The job is currently running.
  47#
  48# @paused: The job is running, but paused. The pause may be requested by
  49#          either the QMP user or by internal processes.
  50#
  51# @ready: The job is running, but is ready for the user to signal completion.
  52#         This is used for long-running jobs like mirror that are designed to
  53#         run indefinitely.
  54#
  55# @standby: The job is ready, but paused. This is nearly identical to @paused.
  56#           The job may return to @ready or otherwise be canceled.
  57#
  58# @waiting: The job is waiting for other jobs in the transaction to converge
  59#           to the waiting state. This status will likely not be visible for
  60#           the last job in a transaction.
  61#
  62# @pending: The job has finished its work, but has finalization steps that it
  63#           needs to make prior to completing. These changes will require
  64#           manual intervention via @job-finalize if auto-finalize was set to
  65#           false. These pending changes may still fail.
  66#
  67# @aborting: The job is in the process of being aborted, and will finish with
  68#            an error. The job will afterwards report that it is @concluded.
  69#            This status may not be visible to the management process.
  70#
  71# @concluded: The job has finished all work. If auto-dismiss was set to false,
  72#             the job will remain in the query list until it is dismissed via
  73#             @job-dismiss.
  74#
  75# @null: The job is in the process of being dismantled. This state should not
  76#        ever be visible externally.
  77#
  78# Since: 2.12
