Title:
virtlogd: qemu 2.6.0 doesn't log boot message
Status in QEMU:
New
Bug description:
This report is related to the OpenStack Nova bug [1].
OpenStack tries to utilize the "virtlogd" feature of libvirt which
gets provided by qemu with [2].
steps to reproduce:
1) launch a quest with qemu 2.6.0 which uses virtlogd for the stdout/stderr
of its char device
2) check the contents of the backing file of that char device
expected result:
The boot messages of the guest are logged in this file
actual result:
The file is empty
notes:
When I'm connected to that char device and reboot the guest, I see the boot
messages in the terminal and also in the backing log file.
