The current security driver usage requires horrible code like
if (driver->securityDriver &&
driver->securityDriver->domainSetSecurityHostdevLabel &&
driver->securityDriver->domainSetSecurityHostdevLabel(driver->securityDriver,
vm, hostdev) < 0)
This pair of checks for NULL clutters up the code, making the driver
calls 2 lines longer than they really need to be. The goal of the
patchset is to change the calling convention to simply
if (virSecurityManagerSetHostdevLabel(driver->securityDriver,
vm, hostdev) < 0)
The first check for 'driver->securityDriver' being NULL is removed
by introducing a 'no op' security driver that will always be present
if no real driver is enabled. This guarentees driver->securityDriver
!= NULL.
The second check for 'driver->securityDriver->domainSetSecurityHostdevLabel'
being non-NULL is hidden in a new abstraction called virSecurityManager.
This separates the driver callbacks, from main internal API. The addition
of a virSecurityManager object, that is separate from the virSecurityDriver
struct also allows for security drivers to carry state / configuration
information directly. Thus the DAC/Stack drivers from src/qemu which
used to pull config from 'struct qemud_driver' can now be moved into
the 'src/security' directory and store their config directly.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Update to
use new virSecurityManager APIs
* src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.c, src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.h
src/qemu/qemu_security_stacked.c, src/qemu/qemu_security_stacked.h:
Move into src/security directory
* src/security/security_stack.c, src/security/security_stack.h,
src/security/security_dac.c, src/security/security_dac.h: Generic
versions of previous QEMU specific drivers
* src/security/security_apparmor.c, src/security/security_apparmor.h,
src/security/security_driver.c, src/security/security_driver.h,
src/security/security_selinux.c, src/security/security_selinux.h:
Update to take virSecurityManagerPtr object as the first param
in all callbacks
* src/security/security_nop.c, src/security/security_nop.h: Stub
implementation of all security driver APIs.
* src/security/security_manager.h, src/security/security_manager.c:
New internal API for invoking security drivers
* src/libvirt.c: Add missing debug for security APIs
* configure.in: look for AppArmor and devel
* src/security/security_apparmor.[ch] src/security/security_driver.c
src/Makefile.am: add and plug the new driver
* src/security/virt-aa-helper.c: new binary which is used exclusively by
the AppArmor security driver to manipulate AppArmor.
* po/POTFILES.in: registers the new files
* tests/Makefile.am tests/secaatest.c tests/virt-aa-helper-test:
tests for virt-aa-helper and the security driver, secaatest.c is
identical to seclabeltest.c except it initializes the 'apparmor'
driver instead of 'selinux'
