Comment 4 Fangge Jin 2015-08-20 08:57:18 UTC

I can reproduce this bug on build libvirt-1.2.15-1.el7.x86_64

Verify it on build libvirt-1.2.17-5.el7.x86_64

Steps:
1.Prepare a guest with iothreadinfo like below:
# virsh iothreadinfo rhel7d2
 IOThread ID     CPU Affinity   
---------------------------------------------------
 1               4
 2               6
 6               1-4,6
 8               1-4,6

2.# virsh iothreaddel rhel7d2 12345 --config
error: invalid argument: cannot find IOThread '12345' in persistent iothreadids

3.# virsh iothreaddel rhel7d2 12345 --current
error: invalid argument: cannot find IOThread '12345' in iothreadids list

4.# virsh iothreaddel rhel7d2 1 --current

5.# virsh iothreadinfo rhel7d2 
 IOThread ID     CPU Affinity   
---------------------------------------------------
 2               6
 6               1-4,6
