Hi all, When I start self-built libvirtd by "libvirtd -d -l -f libvirtd.conf",

If started as a regular user, then this started a qemu:///session server. But note that qemu:///session is auto-spawned by merely attempting to connect as a regular user, so you don't really need to manually start libvirtd in that case. If you want a qemu:///system server, then it has to be started by root.

Need I start libvirtd by root?
