27 * Initialize the CPU throttling API.
29 void cpu_throttle_init(void);
33 * @new_throttle_pct: Percent of sleep time. Valid range is 1 to 99.
35 * Throttles all vcpus by forcing them to sleep for the given percentage of
36 * time. A throttle_percentage of 25 corresponds to a 75% duty cycle roughly.
37 * (example: 10ms sleep for every 30ms awake).
39 * cpu_throttle_set can be called as needed to adjust new_throttle_pct.
40 * Once the throttling starts, it will remain in effect until cpu_throttle_stop
43 void cpu_throttle_set(int new_throttle_pct

48 * Stops the vcpu throttling started by cpu_throttle_set.

55 * Returns: %true if the vcpus are currently being throttled, %false otherwise.
