---uname output---
# uname -a Linux ltc-boston8 4.15.0-10-generic #11-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 13
18:21:52 UTC 2018 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux
Machine Type = Boston
---Debugger---
A debugger is not configured
---Steps to Reproduce---
1. Start a guest with qemu command line and ensure guest comes up properly
qemu-system-ppc64 --enable-kvm --nographic -vga none -machine
pseries,cap-htm=off -m 4G,slots=32,maxmem=32G -smp 16,maxcpus=32 -device
virtio-blk-pci,drive=rootdisk -drive
file=/home/bala/avocado-fvt-wrapper/data/avocado-vt/images/ubuntu-18.04-ppc64le.qcow2,if=none,cache=none,format=qcow2,id=rootdisk
-monitor telnet:127.0.0.1:1234,server,nowait -net nic,model=virtio -net user
-redir tcp:2000::22
2. Check the qemu process to get the pid,
# ps -ef | grep qemu
root 3025 1 0 Feb23 ? 00:55:32 /usr/sbin/irqbalance
--foreground
root 159016 157926 97 10:55 pts/8 00:00:33 qemu-system-ppc64
--enable-kvm --nographic -vga none -machine pseries,cap-htm=off -m
4G,slots=32,maxmem=32G -smp 16,maxcpus=32 -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=rootdisk
-drive
file=/home/bala/avocado-fvt-wrapper/data/avocado-vt/images/ubuntu-18.04-ppc64le.qcow2,if=none,cache=none,format=qcow2,id=rootdisk
-monitor telnet:127.0.0.1:1234,server,nowait -net nic,model=virtio -net user
-redir tcp:2000::22
root 159100 159085 0 10:56 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto bala
3. Try to attach the qemu process with libvirt using qemu-attach command,
# virsh qemu-attach 159016
error: Failed to attach to pid 159016
error: internal error: missing index/unit/bus parameter in drive
'file=/home/bala/avocado-fvt-wrapper/data/avocado-vt/images/ubuntu-18.04-ppc64le.qcow2,if=none,cache=none,format=qcow2,id=rootdisk'
