Indeed, this would be way more efficient.
Does that means that I should create the socket during the
initialisation of the main loop (kvm_msr_energy_thread_init) and keep
track of the context variable and then just give the QIOChannelSocket
pointer has a parameter to the vmsr_read_msr() function to send the
data?
