There have been a few requests [1][2] to support Xen's
max_grant_frames setting
in libvirt domXML, but I'm not quite sure how to model it.
Thanks.
The change must also consider the case of an incoming VM:
With Xen 4.9 and earlier the only way to bump the value for all newly started domUs is to
boot Xen itself with gnttab_max_frames=N. If such domU is migrated to a newer Xen which
already has the per-domU knob max_grant_frames=, the new domU container will use the
(lower) default value of max_grant_frames= because the incoming JSON simply does not
contain that knob. So far I have not found a good place to inject the values from
"GNTTABOP_query_size" into the migration stream. If that stream is routed
through libvirtd by any chance, perhaps the stream can be tweaked there.
