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.

Libvirt API for virtualization
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
