Eric Blake eb7ec2312b event: filter global events by domain:getattr ACL [CVE-2014-0028]
Ever since ACL filtering was added in commit 7639736 (v1.1.1), a
user could still use event registration to obtain access to a
domain that they could not normally access via virDomainLookup*
or virConnectListAllDomains and friends.  We already have the
framework in the RPC generator for creating the filter, and
previous cleanup patches got us to the point that we can now
wire the filter through the entire object event stack.

Furthermore, whether or not domain:getattr is honored, use of
global events is a form of obtaining a list of networks, which
is covered by connect:search_domains added in a93cd08 (v1.1.0).
Ideally, we'd have a way to enforce connect:search_domains when
doing global registrations while omitting that check on a
per-domain registration.  But this patch just unconditionally
requires connect:search_domains, even when no list could be
obtained, based on the following observations:
1. Administrators are unlikely to grant domain:getattr for one
or all domains while still denying connect:search_domains - a
user that is able to manage domains will want to be able to
manage them efficiently, but efficient management includes being
able to list the domains they can access.  The idea of denying
connect:search_domains while still granting access to individual
domains is therefore not adding any real security, but just
serves as a layer of obscurity to annoy the end user.
2. In the current implementation, domain events are filtered
on the client; the server has no idea if a domain filter was
requested, and must therefore assume that all domain event
requests are global.  Even if we fix the RPC protocol to
allow for server-side filtering for newer client/server combos,
making the connect:serach_domains ACL check conditional on
whether the domain argument was NULL won't benefit older clients.
Therefore, we choose to document that connect:search_domains
is a pre-requisite to any domain event management.

Network events need the same treatment, with the obvious
change of using connect:search_networks and network:getattr.

       libvirt library code README
       ===========================

The directory provides the bulk of the libvirt codebase. Everything
except for the libvirtd daemon and client tools. The build uses a
large number of libtool convenience libraries - one for each child
directory, and then links them together for the final libvirt.so,
although some bits get linked directly to libvirtd daemon instead.

The files directly in this directory are supporting the public API
entry points & data structures.

There are two core shared modules to be aware of:

 * util/  - a collection of shared APIs that can be used by any
            code. This directory is always in the include path
            for all things built

 * conf/  - APIs for parsing / manipulating all the official XML
            files used by the public API. This directory is only
            in the include path for driver implementation modules

 * vmx/   - VMware VMX config handling (used by esx/ and vmware/)


Then there are the hypervisor implementations:

 * esx/          - VMware ESX and GSX support using vSphere API over SOAP
 * hyperv/       - Microsoft Hyper-V support using WinRM
 * lxc/          - Linux Native Containers
 * openvz/       - OpenVZ containers using cli tools
 * phyp/         - IBM Power Hypervisor using CLI tools over SSH
 * qemu/         - QEMU / KVM using qemu CLI/monitor
 * remote/       - Generic libvirt native RPC client
 * test/         - A "mock" driver for testing
 * uml/          - User Mode Linux
 * vbox/         - Virtual Box using native API
 * vmware/       - VMware Workstation and Player using the vmrun tool
 * xen/          - Xen using hypercalls, XenD SEXPR & XenStore
 * xenapi/       - Xen using libxenserver


Finally some secondary drivers that are shared for several HVs.
Currently these are used by LXC, OpenVZ, QEMU, UML and Xen drivers.
The ESX, Hyper-V, Power Hypervisor, Remote, Test & VirtualBox drivers all
implement the secondary drivers directly

 * cpu/          - CPU feature management
 * interface/    - Host network interface management
 * network/      - Virtual NAT networking
 * nwfilter/     - Network traffic filtering rules
 * node_device/  - Host device enumeration
 * secret/       - Secret management
 * security/     - Mandatory access control drivers
 * storage/      - Storage management drivers


Since both the hypervisor and secondary drivers can be built as
dlopen()able modules, it is *FORBIDDEN* to have build dependencies
between these directories. Drivers are only allowed to depend on
the public API, and the internal APIs in the util/ and conf/
directories
