Explicitly error on uri=qemu://system
It's a fairly common error that a user tries to connect to a URI like qemu://system or qemu://session (missing a slash). This errors like: $ virsh --connect qemu://session error: failed to connect to the hypervisor error: Unable to resolve address 'session' service '16514': No address associated with hostname If you already know that the standard qemu URI has 3 slashes, that error will make it obvious enough. But new user's may not get it. There's even a RHEL support page explicitly mentioning it!: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Virtualization_Deployment_and_Administration_Guide/sect-Troubleshooting-Common_libvirt_errors_and_troubleshooting.html Catch this error early in libvirt.c virConnectOpen for qemu (and vbox which has similar rules https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1038304
