[libvirt-users] API to set cpuset.cpu_exclusive flag

Hi all, I have been trying to set cpu_exclusive flag. Now I can do it using "echo". I want to know is there any other way (an API) to set this flag? Is it possible to set this flag using API? Thanks. ~Peeyush Gupta

There's no API in libvirt for setting this, and I don't really see the point in this cgroup setting at all. It doesn't offer any critical functionality that you can't achieve by just explicitly configuring cgroups to not overlap.

I guess it could be helpful. I mean I wont have to do it through virsh/echo/explicitly everytime. If I have an API for cgroup settings, I can do it easily through my code.
