Public bug reported:

Under libvirt you can specify special dedicated serial channels that
link the Host to the Guest OS.

e.g.

<channel type='dev'>
  <source path='/dev/urandom'/>
  <target type='virtio'/>
</channel>

On a Redhat derivative distribution this would show up in /dev as
/dev/vport0p1 (with an associated link name if one was specified).

On Ubuntu they don't appear at all.

lspci does show that the controller exists:

00:07.0 Communication controller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio console

And the kernel appears to enumerate the device.

But no devices are created in the filesystem on Ubuntu.
