My comment is not really specific to resource groups but since you
suggest to copy APIs that return typed parameters, could you make them
autoallocate params array (see virDomainJobGetStats)? That is
int virPartitionGetSchedulerParameters(virPartitionPtr partition,
virTypedParameterPtr *params,
int *nparams,
unsigned int flags);
Having to call each API twice, first to get the number of parameters it
can return and then to get the actual parameters is a horrible design.
