Consider using management tools like libvirt that handle tc and friends
for you.  The domain XML is <interface><bandwidth><inbound> and
<outbound>.

Back to the question, are you looking for ingress qdiscs?

This is a standard tc question, not related to virtualization.  You may
get better help from Linux networking mailing lists or IRC channels.
