You need to use the proper and supported way to use vhost-user-blk:

  <disk type='vhostuser' device='disk'>
    <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
    <source type='unix' path='/tmp/vhost-blk.sock'>
      <reconnect enabled='yes' timeout='10'/>
    </source>
    <target dev='vdf' bus='virtio'/>
  </disk>

That works also with attachDevice.

This is obviously way too old for it. You'll need at least libvirt-7.1
for that.
