* block: add throttle block filter driverManos Pitsidianakis2017-09-061-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | block/throttle.c uses existing I/O throttle infrastructure inside a block filter driver. I/O operations are intercepted in the filter's read/write coroutines, and referred to block/throttle-groups.c The driver can be used with the syntax -drive driver=throttle,file.filename=foo.qcow2,throttle-group=bar which registers the throttle filter node with the ThrottleGroup 'bar'. The given group must be created beforehand with object-add or -object.

* block: convert ThrottleGroup to object with QOMManos Pitsidianakis2017-09-051-19/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ThrottleGroup is converted to an object. This will allow the future throttle block filter drive easy creation and configuration of throttle groups in QMP and cli. A new QAPI struct, ThrottleLimits, is introduced to provide a shared struct for all throttle configuration needs in QMP. ThrottleGroups can be created via CLI as -object throttle-group,id=foo,x-iops-total=100,x-.. where x-* are individual limit properties. Since we can't add non-scalar properties in -object this interface must be used instead. However, setting these properties must be disabled after initialization because certain combinations of limits are forbidden and thus configuration changes should be done in one transaction. The individual properties will go away when support for non-scalar values in CLI is implemented and thus are marked as experimental. ThrottleGroup also has a `limits` property that uses the ThrottleLimits struct. It can be used to create ThrottleGroups or set the configuration in existing groups as follows: { "execute": "object-add", "arguments": { "qom-type": "throttle-group", "id": "foo", "props" : { "limits": { "iops-total": 100 } } } } { "execute" : "qom-set", "arguments" : { "path" : "foo", "property" : "limits", "value" : { "iops-total" : 99 } } } This also means a group's configuration can be fetched with qom-get.

* throttle: factor out duplicate codePradeep Jagadeesh2017-02-281-0/+92
This patch removes the redundant throttle code that was present in block and fsdev device files. Now the common code is moved to a single file.
