This patch changes the behaviour of xml element cputune.period and cputune.quota to limit cpu bandwidth only for vcpus, and no longer limit cpu bandwidth for the whole guest. The reasons to do this are: - This matches docs of cputune.period and cputune.quota. - The other parts excepting vcpus are treated as "emulator", and there are separate period/quota settings for emulator in the subsequent patches
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
