RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1313272 +++
Description of problem:
Since we already support attach redirdev, it's better to fix detach redirdev.
// This bug has been fixed in upstream while no downstream bug tracks this issue, so clone Bug #1313272 to RHEL7.6, libvirt. Please feel free to modify if there are something incorrect.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-1.3.2-1.fc24_v1.3.2_rc2_1_g33fb8ff.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1.start a guest with redirdev
# virsh dumpxml vm1|grep redirdev -A 3
<redirdev bus='usb' type='spicevmc'>
<alias name='redir0'/>
</redirdev>
2. prepare a redirdev xml like following
# cat usb-redir.xml
<redirdev bus='usb' type='spicevmc'>
</redirdev>
3.detach redirdev device
# virsh detach-device vm1 usb-redir.xml
error: Failed to detach device from usb-redir.xml
error: Operation not supported: live detach of device 'redirdev' is not supported
# virsh detach-device vm1 usb-redir.xml --config
error: Failed to detach device from usb-redir.xml
error: Operation not supported: persistent detach of device 'redirdev' is not supported
Actual results:
As step3, fail to detach it.
Expected results:
It could be detached.
Additional info:
using QMP to check :
before delete, using virt-viewer to open guest we could find that table "Redirect USB device" is useful.
then we detach it via QMP
virsh # qemu-monitor-command vm1 --pretty '{"execute":"device_del","arguments":{"id":"redir0"}}'
{
"return": {
},
"id": "libvirt-25"
}
Then using virt-viewer to open guest to check again, we will find that table "Redirect USB device" is gray and it cannot be used.So actually it could be detached.

Fixing basically involves 2 places:
src/qemu/qemu_driver.c function qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive needs to handle REDIRDEV
a qemuDomainDetachRedirdevDevice function should be implemented in src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c
The pattern to follow here is RNG devices and the qemuDomainDetachRNGDevice ... the actual qemu interaction logic will basically be identical, we just need to match that pattern and swap out the redirdev bits

qemu: Add support for hot unplugging redirdev device
Commit id '162efa1a' added support hotplug a redirdev, but
did not add the hot unplug. This patch will add that support
to allow usage of the detach-device --live on the device.
