I have a try, but it does not work and makes the same warning:

ld.so: object '/usr/local/lib/glibcHookMMAP.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.

However, I use qemu command directly and it works. Command is like this:

sudo LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/glibcHookMMAP.so qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm ...(other args).

After that, I get print information with my hook program. And I think the problem is in passing the environment args in libvirt.
