HI, folks,
I am trying to enable block I/O throttling function in libvirt. But
currently i met some design questions, and don't make sure if we
should extend blkiotune to support block I/O throttling or introduce
one new libvirt command "blkiothrottle" to cover it or not. If you
have some better idea, pls don't hesitate to drop your comments.
If one new libvirt command "blkiothrottle" is introduced, I plan to
design its usage syntax as below:
virsh # help blkiothrottle
NAME
blkiothrottle - Set or display a block disk I/O throttle setting.
SYNOPSIS
blkiothrottle<domain> <device> [--bps<number>] [--bps_rd
<number>] [--bps_wr<number>] [--iops<number>] [--iops_rd<number>]
[--iops_wr<number>]
DESCRIPTION
Set or display a block disk I/O throttle setting.
OPTIONS
[--domain]<string> domain name, id or uuid
[--device]<string> block device
--bps<number> total throughput limits in bytes/s
--bps_rd<number> read throughput limits in bytes/s
--bps_wr<number> write throughput limits in bytes/s
--iops<number> total operation limits in numbers/s
--iops_rd<number> read operation limits in numbers/s
--iops_wr<number> write operation limits in numbers/s
How to display the current I/O throttle setting of a specific block device
here?
It will show as below:
virtio0: bps=xxx, bps_rd=xxx, bps_wr=xxx, iops=xxx, iops_rd=xxx, iops_wr=xxx.
With which options to the command? I guess "blkiothrottle <domain>
<device>" will display the current setting.
