Series tools/xenstore: rework internal accounting | expand

Commit Message

Jürgen Groß March 30, 2023, 8:16 a.m. UTC
Instead of having individual quota variables switch to a table based
approach like the generic accounting. Include all the related data in
the same table and add accessor functions.

This enables to use the command line --quota parameter for setting all
possible quota values, keeping the previous parameters for
compatibility.

Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>

V2:
- new patch
One further remark: it would be rather easy to add soft-quota for all
the other quotas (similar to the memory one). This could be used as
an early warning for the need to raise global quota.
