There are a couple of problems with passthrough qemu: 1. virsh version/capabilities command executes "qemu -help" but this gives an error in my case because my customized qemu has to receive mandatory non-standard parameters "qemu -c -n -- -help". 2. Similarly when passing arguments as passthrough in a VMs XML. How can I make sure that these non-standard arguments are passed first i.e., My qemu command for a VM should be "qemu -c -n -- <Rest of the standard parameters>" On 31 March 2014 16:45, Daniel P.

Hello, I have a custom QEMU which requires some non-standard command line arguments to launch a VM. e.g., "--proc-type=secondary" option is always required to launch a QEMU VM.
To launch the VM through libvirt (virsh) "How do I specify these non-standard options in XML?
