Sometimes when hacking on qemu, I want to try out a new qemu binary on an existing image, without replacing the system wide one and may want to pass new command line flags for testing those, plus have access to the monitor.Works with the wrapper script trick mentioned above. virsh edit $domain grep for <emulator> make it point to a wrapper script. My setup: address@hidden ~]# virsh dumpxml fedora | grep emulator <emulator>/root/bin/qemu-wrapper</emulator> address@hidden ~]# cat /root/bin/qemu-wrapper
Ah right thanks! However, it's a hack to get around the real problem with libvirt. Not to mention that the output from virsh dumpxml is where you have to cover your eyes and try not getting sick while editing :( Having a normal config file in readable format where you could add regular command line options manually would make life so much easier.
