to look at the file C<daemon/debug.c> in the libguestfs source
to find out what you can do.
+=head2 dmesg
+
+ dmesg
+
+This returns the kernel messages (C<dmesg> output) from
+the guest kernel. This is sometimes useful for extended
+debugging of problems.
+
+Another way to get the same information is to enable
+verbose messages with C<set-verbose> or by setting
+the environment variable C<LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1> before
+running the program.
+
=head2 download
download remotefilename (filename|-)
Use C<-> instead of a filename to read/write from stdin/stdout.
+=head2 drop-caches
+
+ drop-caches whattodrop
+
+This instructs the guest kernel to drop its page cache,
+and/or dentries and inode caches. The parameter C<whattodrop>
+tells the kernel what precisely to drop, see
+L<http://linux-mm.org/Drop_Caches>
+
+Setting C<whattodrop> to 3 should drop everything.
+
+This automatically calls L<sync(2)> before the operation,
+so that the maximum guest memory is freed.
+
+=head2 equal
+
+ equal file1 file2
+
+This compares the two files C<file1> and C<file2> and returns
+true if their content is exactly equal, or false otherwise.
+
+The external L<cmp(1)> program is used for the comparison.

=head2 exists
exists path
mkfs fstype device
This creates a filesystem on C<device> (usually a partition
-of LVM logical volume). The filesystem type is C<fstype>, for
+or LVM logical volume). The filesystem type is C<fstype>, for
example C<ext3>.
=head2 mount
This moves a file from C<src> to C<dest> where C<dest> is
either a destination filename or destination directory.
+=head2 ping-daemon
+
+ ping-daemon
+
+This is a test probe into the guestfs daemon running inside
+the qemu subprocess. Calling this function checks that the
+daemon responds to the ping message, without affecting the daemon
+or attached block device(s) in any other way.
