Drop @enable, please.
If @dirty-rate is present, set the limit to its value.
If it's absent, cancel the limit.
Ok. Indeed, this is the simplest style. :)
So the final qmp format should be like:
case 1: setup vcpu 0 dirty page limit 100MB/s
vcpu-dirty-limit cpu-index=0 dirty-rate=100MB/s
case 2: cancle vcpu 0 dirty page limit
vcpu-dirty-limit cpu-index=0
I actually agree with what you said... for human beings no one will read it as
"disable vcpu throttling", instead people could consider it enables vcpu
throttle with a default dirty rate from a gut feeling.
I think what Markus suggested is the simplest solution for computers, but it
can confuse human beings. So it turns out to be a general question to QMP
scheme design: should we always assume QMP client to be a piece of software, or
should we still consider the feeling of human beings operating on QMP
interfaces using qmp-shell.
IMHO we should still consider the latter, if we don't lose much, anyway. But I
don't have a strong opinion.

So, how do you think about it, Markus?
