Fixed upstream.  Is this important enougth to backport to rhel6?
I'm tempted to just move this to rhel7.

Agree. Please add a link to the commit or a copy/paste of the SHA1 + changelog and then move this bug to ON_QA.

Comment 7 huiqingding 2014-01-21 01:57:19 UTC 
Verify this issue using the following version:
kernel-3.10.0-67.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-1.5.3-38.el7.x86_64

Steps to verification
1. Read a non-existing config file
# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -readconfig aaa.txt

Actual results:
qemu-kvm quits with error information:
read config aaa.txt: No such file or directory

Based on the above results, I think this bug has been fixed.
