Yes, that would be probably nice, but since I've pushed this patch
already I can create a following patch with this small update?
Yes, a followup is fine.

Well, yes and no :). Let's say, that we will add in the future (and I'm
planning to do it) blkiotune where you can update at the same time all
of the tunables for all host's disks where all params for now will be
only VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING and that could consume a lot of memory. I
know that it will probably never be that much, but I wanted to be sure
that we will have enough space for all possible tunable events.
Still, are you going to return 8 million separate strings? Or just 8
million bytes but still contained within 2000 strings? Seriously, I
think 2048 is a perfectly LARGE limit - there are not THAT many tunables
per domain. The params<LIMIT> is not the overall size of the command,
but the number of parameters (each of which can be quite large if they
are type string)
