Far from being an expert in this area, but you might want to use
QEMU_DOMAIN_LOG_CONTEXT_MODE_ATTACH, since one domain log file most probably
exists already. Other than that, generally it's very hard to tell why a function
returns NULL, I'd suggest using GDB and see what causes the function to fail.
One more thing, looking at qemuDomainLogContextNew, if it's about to fail, it
will log an error, you might want to check the daemon log as well which will
give you an idea what exactly inside the function failed, but as I said,
nothing can serve you better than the good old GDB in this case.
