This is not extensible. We've already learned the hard way that this
MUST use virTypedParameter to make future additions painless, rather
than hard-coding a particular structure.
Hi Eric,
We consider using virTypeParameter as Adam suggested at first, but when I dig into the
code, I found
struct virTypedParameter is mainly used by memtune, blkiotune...etc, supported by cgroup
mechanism,
different from Block I/O throttling which is supported through qemu monitor command
'block_set_io_throttle'.
Qemu monitor send all the setting parameters at one time within qmp command made by
qemuMonitorJSONMakeCommand,
the union struct virTypeParameter is not very suitable for it. So we still use struct
virDomainBlockIoTuneInfo
to keep consistent for qemu monitor command.
