it apply groups on top source(vm1_disk_2.qcow2) only? is there scenario to
apply throttle-groups on backing store source?

    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
        <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'/>
        <source file='/virt/disks/vm1_disk_2.qcow2' index='1'>
            <throttlefilters>
              <throttlefilter group='limit0'/>
            </throttlefilters>
        </source>
        <backingStore type='file' index='4'>
          <format type='qcow2'/>
          <source file='/virt/disks/backing.qcow2'>
            <throttlefilters>
              <throttlefilter group='limit1'/>
            </throttlefilters>
          </source>
          <backingStore/>
        </backingStore>
        <target dev='vdc' bus='virtio'/>
        <alias name='virtio-disk2'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x06'
function='0x0'/>
     </disk>
Yeah, something like this. That allows adding filters on other layers
too.

As I said it depends on how you expect to use this feature, because both
make sense.

I do reckon that in most cases this is an overkill though.

If you decide that this is too complicated, you can use the approach you
did, but then need to store the nodename of the throttle layer on the
disk level in the status XML.
sure, then let's stick to current implementation about filter
chain(per-disk), about status XML, do you mean <privateData> to store
nodename? if so, does the following xml look good to you?

   <throttlefilters>
     <throttlefilter  group='limit2'>
       <privateData>
         <nodename type='throttle-filter'
name='0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDE'/>
       </privateData>
     </throttlefilter>
   </throttlefilters>
I suggest you don't add the privateData sub-element to the
'throttlefilters' as it will be very hard to plumb that in. You'd
require private data callbacks which the XML parser (generic) calls from
the qemu driver (specific) to parse this.

I'd rather suggest you use the disk private data section and format them
there. Use the group name as a key to find them as that is (or at least
should be) unique.

if so, it could be the following xml:

<disk>
  <privateData>
       <nodenames>
           <nodename type='throttle-filter' name='libvirt-nodenameindex-filter' key='group_name'/>
       </nodenames>
  </privateData>
</disk>


and

struct _qemuDomainDiskPrivate {
...
GHashTable *throttleFilters;
...
}

any suggestion?
