When virDomainSetIOThreadParams() API is called, well its QEMU impl: qemuDomainSetIOThreadParams() then typed params are parsed by qemuDomainIOThreadParseParams() into this qemuMonitorIOThreadInfo struct. In the struct we have a <int, bool> pair for every IOThread attribute we can tune through monitor. The struct is then passed to qemuMonitorJSONSetIOThread() which looks at the bool and if set then the corresponding attribute is set to given value. Each attribute is thus changed in a separate call. While this works for attributes independent of each other ("poll-max-ns", "poll-grow", "poll-shrink"), it does not always work for the other attributes ("thread-pool-min" and "thread-pool-max"). The limitation here is that the lower boundary (minimum) has to be lower (or equal to) the upper boundary (maximum) at all times. This means, that in some cases we might need to set attributes in reversed order to meet the constraint.
