Hi Laine!

The first step would be to look in /var/log/libvirt/qemu/$guestname.log.
If qemu is encountering some error, it should be logging a message there
before it exits. (unless the error is a segfault; in that case I guess
you'll need to look for a coredump. It will also list exactly the qemu
commandline that was used.

Except for some unrelated warnings, qemu does not emit any error message:

At least you're running pretty much up-to-date of both libvirt and qemu, so you won't have to suffer through someone saying "come back when you've updated your software!" :-)

(although I suppose it's possible you've run into some recent regression that I haven't heard of, and all the people who have heard of it aren't responding because they gone off on their Christmas holidays already).

Maybe try running this command directly from the commandline (after removing the "-netdev tap" and "-device e1000e" lines, since they require pre-creation/opening of a tap device) and see if it stays up or dies. If it dies, then retry it removing more and more of the commandline options until it runs successfully (note that many of the options come in pairs - e.g. the "-device ich9-intel-hda" and "-device hda-duplex" lines must be removed together, similarly for the sets of "-chardev spicevmc" and "-device usb-redir"). If you can keep track, use a bisecting strategy to save time. Once you've narrowed it down to a single option, maybe it will be easier to diagnose.

A similar strategy you could use at the libvirt level would be to use "virsh define" (run as root) and give it the XML you captured as the definition. Then do the same thing - repeatedly try to "virsh start", and then when it fails, use "virsh edit" to remove some of the devices/options and try again.

Good luck!

One suggestion I saw for avoiding these warnings is to set "host-passthrough" for the CPU model rather than "host-model". No idea if it works though.

If the message there isn't illuminating enough and you come back here, it would be helpful
to "bring along" that qemu commandline (and any accompanying error) as well as the output
of "virsh dumpxml $guestname"

Since libvirt won't create the guest instance in the first place, dumping the XML of the config
like that won't work. However, it's possible to view the XML from the preview window in the
machine details:
