[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#755387: libvirt-bin: Wheezy guest doesn't ACPI power button events

[Daniel Dickinson]

Package: libvirt-bin
Version: 1.2.4-3
Severity: normal

I have a Wheezy guest I can't shutdown cleanly from libvirt (i.e. without logging into VM
and shutting down VM from within VM) because the guest is failing to get ACPI events.

The guest didn't have issues before jessie (i.e. while on Wheezy) and does have acpid and I've
even tried adding acpi-support to no avail.  acpi is enabled as a feature in the XML.

The strange thing is a Windows 8.1 guest is not having issues with this (it was created around
the same time as the wheezy guest, while host was on wheezy).

The command line generated by libvirt is:

LC_ALL=C PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none /usr/bin/kvm -name <name> -S -machine pc-1.1,accel=kvm,usb=off -m 256 -realtime mlock=off -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -uuid <uuid> -no-user-config -nodefaults -chardev socket,id=charmonitor,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/<name>.monitor,server,nowait -mon chardev=charmonitor,id=monitor,mode=control -rtc base=utc -no-shutdown -boot order=cd,menu=on,strict=on -device piix3-usb-uhci,id=usb,bus=pci.0,addr=0x1.0x2 -device virtio-serial-pci,id=virtio-serial0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 -drive if=none,id=drive-ide0-1-0,readonly=on,format=raw -device ide-cd,bus=ide.1,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-1-0,id=ide0-1-0 -drive file=<image>,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=raw -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,bus=pci.0,addr=0x5,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,id=virtio-disk0 -netdev tap,fd=25,id=hostnet0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=net0,mac=<mac>,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3 -chardev pty,id=charserial0 -device isa-seria

Neither libvirt  nor the guest produce any logs as result of issuing the shutdown command from virt-manageer or virsh.
