Thank you for your advice.
And I compiled the libvirt-0.7.4 again
./configure
make
make install
After reboot the machine, I run the binary virsh, the result is as below:
[root@kvm bin]#virsh
error: unable to connect to '/usr/local/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

Then I run the virsh -c ,the result is as below:
[root@kvm bin]#virsh -c qemu+unix:///system?socket=/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock
error: unable to connect to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

At the same time, I found the libvird didn't running, I don't know whether this caused the error or not.

I don't know why this error occurs.
Maybe the reason is the libvirt didn't support the use kvm virtualization on ia64 as berrange said before.
But I modify the qemu_conf.c and add ia64 information into the struct arch_info_hvm.
Then compiled again. The errors remain.

Please forgive my poor program skills, I can't add the ia64 into the libvirt kvm supports.
Will you want to do some works on this?

Thanks a lot.
