the questioner wants to know how to know when the searchview is expanded. just do this with your searchview (assuming its standalone but you can get a reference to it from menu item if needed):

searchView.setOnSearchClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(View v) {
                        //search is expanded
                    }
                });

here is for closed situation:

searchView.setOnCloseListener(new SearchView.OnCloseListener() {
                    @Override
                    public boolean onClose() {
// searchview closed
                        return false;
                    }
                });
