I'd like to see finer grained locking if possible. We try really hard to make guest startup be highly parallizeable, so any global locks that will be required by all VMs starting hurts that. > > IMHO virResCtrlSetCacheBanks needs to return an object that represents the > > config for that particular VM.

Well it might not need to return an object neccessarily. Perhaps you can just pass the VM PID into the method when your shutdown instead, and have a hash table keyed off PID to lookup the data structure needed to cleanup. > I expect that when the VM reboot, we recalculate from cachetune(in xml > setting) again, that because we are not sure if the host can offer the > VM for enough cache when it restart again. You shouldn't need to care about reboot as a concept in these APIs. From the QEMU driver POV, a cold reboot will just be done as a stop followed by start. So these low level cache APIs just need to cope with start+stop.
