Adding audit points showed that we were granting too much privilege to qemu; it should not need any mknod rights to recreate any devices. On the other hand, lxc should have all device privileges. The solution is adding a flag parameter. This also lets us restrict write access to read-only disks. * src/util/cgroup.h (virCgroup*Device*): Adjust prototypes. * src/util/cgroup.c (virCgroupAllowDevice) (virCgroupAllowDeviceMajor, virCgroupAllowDevicePath) (virCgroupDenyDevice, virCgroupDenyDeviceMajor) (virCgroupDenyDevicePath): Add parameter. * src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSaveFlag): Update clients. * src/lxc/lxc_controller.c (lxcSetContainerResources): Likewise. * src/qemu/qemu_cgroup.c: Likewise. (qemuSetupDiskPathAllow): Also, honor read-only disks.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
