Libvirt looks for virtiofsd JSON description file in the following paths: /usr/share/qemu/vhost-user/ /etc/qemu/vhost-user/ ~/.config/qemu/vhost-user/ which is true for upstream QEMU or for example the one shipped in Fedora but in RHEL the files installed by package are in different directory: /usr/share/qemu-kvm/vhost-user/ and that results in the error mentioned in BZ description. Since these files are similar to UEFI firmware JSON description which are in RHEL shipped in the same directory as in upstream (/usr/share/qemu/firmware) I think we should do the same for vhost-user JSON description files. It's like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1804196 for RHEL8. Change componet. Updating ownership to match the similar (but not cloned from) RHEL-AV bug 1804196. If this is the same problem, then once that bug is merged/built - update the Dev Whiteboard w/ the downstream build reference and move this to POST to be merged into 9-Beta To be merged in 9-Beta. Fix already present in RHEL-AV 8.5. Setting ITM=26 to get release+ Mrezanin: can you answer that question? ^ QE bot(pre verify): Set 'Verified:Tested,SanityOnly' as gating/tier1 test pass.
