What were you trying to do that didn't work?
Create a node device for my s390x ccw device.
Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:
libvirt-10.0.0-3.el10+5.s390x
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to reproduce
# cat vfio_ccw_nodedev.xml <device> <!-- corresponds to css device 0.0.26aa --> <parent>css_0_0_0030</parent> <capability type="mdev"> <type id="vfio_ccw-io"/> <uuid>8d312cf6-f92a-485c-8db8-ba9299848f46</uuid> </capability> </device> # # lscss Device Subchan.

# virsh nodedev-create vfio_ccw_nodedev.xml
Expected results
The mdev node device is created succesfully and the corresponding hostdev can be attached to the VM. Libvirt confirms the node device is created returning it's libvirt name.
Actual results
error: Failed to create node device from vfio_ccw_nodedev.xml error: internal error: Unable to start mediated device: Error: Failed to create mdev 8d312cf6-f92a-485c-8db8-ba9299848f46, type vfio_ccw-io on 0.0.0030 Caused by: Permission denied (os error 13)
