Disk I/O statistics support

Disk I/O statistics support

[Anthony Liguori]

I noticed a recent commit for disk I/O support.  It's a terribly useful 
idea but unfortunately it was only done for VMDK.

Any chance this could be generalized for other disk types?  Also, 
wouldn't it be better to push this sort of things to QEMU upstream 
before committing to KVM?

Regards,

Anthony Liguori

You're absolutely right, we'll do that.
Regarding committing first to KVM before Qemu, I think it can be done in
parallel. It sometimes take time until they adopt patches.

  Hi Anthony,
First of all, thanks for your comments.

I'll try to add disk statistics to other formats and push it to QEMU too, but it may take some time.
