Do you have domain XML that is failing?
Yes, I got the issue while virsh start:
# virsh start Test
error: Failed to start domain Test
error: internal error: qemu unexpectedly closed the monitor: 2020-10-05T17:31:21.078134Z
qemu-system-x86_64: '-machine memory-backend' and '-numa memdev'
properties are mutually exclusive
#
Here is the domain XML. I'm using libvirt with the head commit: 7d77fdb90f,
and qemu with the head commit: 36d9c2883e.
