Description of problem: Currently virtio console can never generate virtio serial address. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libvirt-3.2.0-3.el7.x86_64 qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-2.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. start a guest with following virtio console # virsh dumpxml r74 |grep console -A 5 <console type='pty'> <target type='virtio' port='0'/> </console> # virsh start r74 Domain r74 started # virsh dumpxml r74 |grep console -A 5 <console type='pty' tty='/dev/pts/4'> <source path='/dev/pts/4'/> <target type='virtio' port='0'/> <alias name='console0'/> </console> 2. Hotplug a virtio console # cat console.xml <console type='pty'> <target type='virtio' port='0'/> </console> # virsh attach-device r74 console.xml Device attached successfully # virsh dumpxml r74 |grep console -A 5 <console type='pty' tty='/dev/pts/5'> <source path='/dev/pts/5'/> <target type='virtio' port='0'/> <alias name='console1'/> </console> 3. Adding virtio-serial address for virtio console via editing vm xml. #virsh edit r74 ... <console type='pty'> <target type='virtio' port='0'/> <address type='virtio-serial' controller='0' bus='0' port='3'/> </console> ... #virsh start r74 Domain r74 started # virsh dumpxml r74|grep console -A 3 <console type='pty' tty='/dev/pts/4'> <source path='/dev/pts/4'/> <target type='virtio' port='0'/> <alias name='console0'/> <address type='virtio-serial' controller='0' bus='0' port='3'/> </console> Check qemu cmdline : ...... -chardev pty,id=charconsole0 -device virtconsole,bus=virtio-serial0.0,nr=3,chardev=charconsole0,id=console0 ...... Actual results: As step 1 and step 2 virtio console cannot generated address. Expected results: As step 3, virtio console should have a virtio-serial address.
