Stefano Garzarella 1793ad0247 iothread: add aio-max-batch parameter
The `aio-max-batch` parameter will be propagated to AIO engines
and it will be used to control the maximum number of queued requests.

When there are in queue a number of requests equal to `aio-max-batch`,
the engine invokes the system call to forward the requests to the kernel.

This parameter allows us to control the maximum batch size to reduce
the latency that requests might accumulate while queued in the AIO
engine queue.

If `aio-max-batch` is equal to 0 (default value), the AIO engine will
use its default maximum batch size value.

# @stop:
#
# Stop all guest VCPU execution.
#
# Since: 0.14
#
# Notes: This function will succeed even if the guest is already in the stopped
# state. In "inmigrate" state, it will ensure that the guest
# remains paused once migration finishes, as if the -S option was
# passed on the command line.
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "stop" }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
##
{ 'command': 'stop' }
##
# @cont:
#
# Resume guest VCPU execution.
#
# Since: 0.14
#
# Returns: If successful, nothing
#
# Notes: This command will succeed if the guest is currently running. It
# will also succeed if the guest is in the "inmigrate" state; in
# this case, the effect of the command is to make sure the guest
# starts once migration finishes, removing the effect of the -S
# command line option if it was passed.
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "cont" }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
##
{ 'command': 'cont' }
##
# @x-exit-preconfig:
#
# Exit from "preconfig" state
#
# This command makes QEMU exit the preconfig state and proceed with
# VM initialization using configuration data provided on the command line
# and via the QMP monitor during the preconfig state. The command is only
# available during the preconfig state (i.e. when the --preconfig command
# line option was in use).
#
# Since 3.0
#
# Returns: nothing
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "x-exit-preconfig" }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
##

# Execute a command on the human monitor and return the output.
#
# @command-line: the command to execute in the human monitor
#
# @cpu-index: The CPU to use for commands that require an implicit CPU
#
# Features:
# @savevm-monitor-nodes: If present, HMP command savevm only snapshots
# monitor-owned nodes if they have no parents.
# This allows the use of 'savevm' with
# -blockdev. (since 4.2)
#
# Returns: the output of the command as a string
#
# Since: 0.14
#
# Notes: This command only exists as a stop-gap. Its use is highly
# discouraged. The semantics of this command are not
# guaranteed: this means that command names, arguments and
# responses can change or be removed at ANY time. Applications
# that rely on long term stability guarantees should NOT
# use this command.
#
# Known limitations:
#
# * This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
# on state information (such as getfd) might not work
#
# * Commands that prompt the user for data don't currently work
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "human-monitor-command",
# "arguments": { "command-line": "info kvm" } }
# <- { "return": "kvm support: enabled\r\n" }
