<h2><a id="uris">Connections to QEMU driver</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The libvirt QEMU driver is a multi-instance driver, providing a single
|
|
system wide privileged driver (the "system" instance), and per-user
|
|
unprivileged drivers (the "session" instance). The URI driver protocol
|
|
is "qemu". Some example connection URIs for the libvirt driver are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
qemu:///session (local access to per-user instance)
|
|
qemu+unix:///session (local access to per-user instance)
|
|
|
|
qemu:///system (local access to system instance)
|
|
qemu+unix:///system (local access to system instance)
|
|
qemu://example.com/system (remote access, TLS/x509)
|
|
qemu+tcp://example.com/system (remote access, SASl/Kerberos)
|
|
qemu+ssh://root@example.com/system (remote access, SSH tunnelled)
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a id="security">Driver security architecture</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
There are multiple layers to security in the QEMU driver, allowing for
|
|
flexibility in the use of QEMU based virtual machines.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3><a id="securitydriver">Driver instances</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
As explained above there are two ways to access the QEMU driver
|
|
in libvirt. The "qemu:///session" family of URIs connect to a
|
|
libvirtd instance running as the same user/group ID as the client
|
|
application. Thus the QEMU instances spawned from this driver will
|
|
share the same privileges as the client application. The intended
|
|
use case for this driver is desktop virtualization, with virtual
|
|
machines storing their disk images in the user's home directory and
|
|
being managed from the local desktop login session.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The "qemu:///system" family of URIs connect to a
|
|
libvirtd instance running as the privileged system account 'root'.
|
|
Thus the QEMU instances spawned from this driver may have much
|
|
higher privileges than the client application managing them.
|
|
The intended use case for this driver is server virtualization,
|
|
where the virtual machines may need to be connected to host
|
|
resources (block, PCI, USB, network devices) whose access requires
|
|
elevated privileges.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3><a id="securitydac">POSIX users/groups</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the "session" instance, the POSIX users/groups model restricts QEMU
|
|
virtual machines (and libvirtd in general) to only have access to resources
|
|
with the same user/group ID as the client application. There is no
|
|
finer level of configuration possible for the "session" instances.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the "system" instance, libvirt releases from 0.7.0 onwards allow
|
|
control over the user/group that the QEMU virtual machines are run
|
|
as. A build of libvirt with no configuration parameters set will
|
|
still run QEMU processes as root:root. It is possible to change
|
|
this default by using the --with-qemu-user=$USERNAME and
|
|
--with-qemu-group=$GROUPNAME arguments to 'configure' during
|
|
build. It is strongly recommended that vendors build with both
|
|
of these arguments set to 'qemu'. Regardless of this build time
|
|
default, administrators can set a per-host default setting in
|
|
the <code>/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf</code> configuration file via
|
|
the <code>user=$USERNAME</code> and <code>group=$GROUPNAME</code>
|
|
parameters. When a non-root user or group is configured, the
|
|
libvirt QEMU driver will change uid/gid to match immediately
|
|
before executing the QEMU binary for a virtual machine.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If QEMU virtual machines from the "system" instance are being
|
|
run as non-root, there will be greater restrictions on what
|
|
host resources the QEMU process will be able to access. The
|
|
libvirtd daemon will attempt to manage permissions on resources
|
|
to minimise the likelihood of unintentional security denials,
|
|
but the administrator / application developer must be aware of
|
|
some of the consequences / restrictions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The directories <code>/var/run/libvirt/qemu/</code>,
|
|
<code>/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/</code> and
|
|
<code>/var/cache/libvirt/qemu/</code> must all have their
|
|
ownership set to match the user / group ID that QEMU
|
|
guests will be run as. If the vendor has set a non-root
|
|
user/group for the QEMU driver at build time, the
|
|
permissions should be set automatically at install time.
|
|
If a host administrator customizes user/group in
|
|
<code>/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf</code>, they will need to
|
|
manually set the ownership on these directories.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
When attaching USB and PCI devices to a QEMU guest,
|
|
QEMU will need to access files in <code>/dev/bus/usb</code>
|
|
and <code>/sys/bus/pci/devices</code> respectively. The libvirtd daemon
|
|
will automatically set the ownership on specific devices
|
|
that are assigned to a guest at start time. There should
|
|
not be any need for administrator changes in this respect.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Any files/devices used as guest disk images must be
|
|
accessible to the user/group ID that QEMU guests are
|
|
configured to run as. The libvirtd daemon will automatically
|
|
set the ownership of the file/device path to the correct
|
|
user/group ID. Applications / administrators must be aware
|
|
though that the parent directory permissions may still
|
|
deny access. The directories containing disk images
|
|
must either have their ownership set to match the user/group
|
|
configured for QEMU, or their UNIX file permissions must
|
|
have the 'execute/search' bit enabled for 'others'.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The simplest option is the latter one, of just enabling
|
|
the 'execute/search' bit. For any directory to be used
|
|
for storing disk images, this can be achieved by running
|
|
the following command on the directory itself, and any
|
|
parent directories
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
chmod o+x /path/to/directory
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In particular note that if using the "system" instance
|
|
and attempting to store disk images in a user home
|
|
directory, the default permissions on $HOME are typically
|
|
too restrictive to allow access.
|
|
</p>

</ul>

<h3><a id="securitycap">Linux process capabilities</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The libvirt QEMU driver has a build time option allowing it to use
|
|
the <a href="http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/libcap-ng/index.html">libcap-ng</a>
|
|
library to manage process capabilities. If this build option is
|
|
enabled, then the QEMU driver will use this to ensure that all
|
|
process capabilities are dropped before executing a QEMU virtual
|
|
machine. Process capabilities are what gives the 'root' account
|
|
its high power, in particular the CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE capability
|
|
is what allows a process running as 'root' to access files owned
|
|
by any user.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the QEMU driver is configured to run virtual machines as non-root,
|
|
then they will already lose all their process capabilities at time
|
|
of startup. The Linux capability feature is thus aimed primarily at
|
|
the scenario where the QEMU processes are running as root. In this
|
|
case, before launching a QEMU virtual machine, libvirtd will use
|
|
libcap-ng APIs to drop all process capabilities. It is important
|
|
for administrators to note that this implies the QEMU process will
|
|
<strong>only</strong> be able to access files owned by root, and
|
|
not files owned by any other user.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Thus, if a vendor / distributor has configured their libvirt package
|
|
to run as 'qemu' by default, a number of changes will be required
|
|
before an administrator can change a host to run guests as root.
|
|
In particular it will be necessary to change ownership on the
|
|
directories <code>/var/run/libvirt/qemu/</code>,
|
|
<code>/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/</code> and
|
|
<code>/var/cache/libvirt/qemu/</code> back to root, in addition
|
|
to changing the <code>/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf</code> settings.
|
|

<h3><a id="securityselinux">SELinux basic confinement</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The basic SELinux protection for QEMU virtual machines is intended to
|
|
protect the host OS from a compromised virtual machine process. There
|
|
is no protection between guests.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the basic model, all QEMU virtual machines run under the confined
|
|
domain <code>root:system_r:qemu_t</code>. It is required that any
|
|
disk image assigned to a QEMU virtual machine is labelled with
|
|
<code>system_u:object_r:virt_image_t</code>. In a default deployment,
|
|
package vendors/distributor will typically ensure that the directory
|
|
<code>/var/lib/libvirt/images</code> has this label, such that any
|
|
disk images created in this directory will automatically inherit the
|
|
correct labelling. If attempting to use disk images in another
|
|
location, the user/administrator must ensure the directory has be
|
|
given this requisite label. Likewise physical block devices must
|
|
be labelled <code>system_u:object_r:virt_image_t</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Not all filesystems allow for labelling of individual files. In
|
|
particular NFS, VFat and NTFS have no support for labelling. In
|
|
these cases administrators must use the 'context' option when
|
|
mounting the filesystem to set the default label to
|
|
<code>system_u:object_r:virt_image_t</code>. In the case of
|
|
NFS, there is an alternative option, of enabling the <code>virt_use_nfs</code>
|
|
SELinux boolean.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3><a id="securitysvirt">SELinux sVirt confinement</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The SELinux sVirt protection for QEMU virtual machines builds to the
|
|
basic level of protection, to also allow individual guests to be
|
|
protected from each other.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the sVirt model, each QEMU virtual machine runs under its own
|
|
confined domain, which is based on <code>system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0</code>
|
|
with a unique category appended, eg, <code>system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c34,c44</code>.
|
|
The rules are setup such that a domain can only access files which are
|
|
labelled with the matching category level, eg
|
|
<code>system_u:object_r:svirt_image_t:s0:c34,c44</code>. This prevents one
|
|
QEMU process accessing any file resources that are prevent to another QEMU
|
|
process.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
There are two ways of assigning labels to virtual machines under sVirt.
|
|
In the default setup, if sVirt is enabled, guests will get an automatically
|
|
assigned unique label each time they are booted. The libvirtd daemon will
|
|
also automatically relabel exclusive access disk images to match this
|
|
label. Disks that are marked as <shared> will get a generic
|
|
label <code>system_u:system_r:svirt_image_t:s0</code> allowing all guests
|
|
read/write access them, while disks marked as <readonly> will
|
|
get a generic label <code>system_u:system_r:svirt_content_t:s0</code>
|
|
which allows all guests read-only access.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
With statically assigned labels, the application should include the
|
|
desired guest and file labels in the XML at time of creating the
|
|
guest with libvirt. In this scenario the application is responsible
|
|
for ensuring the disk images & similar resources are suitably
|
|
labelled to match, libvirtd will not attempt any relabelling.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the sVirt security model is active, then the node capabilities
|
|
XML will include its details. If a virtual machine is currently
|
|
protected by the security model, then the guest XML will include
|
|
its assigned labels. If enabled at compile time, the sVirt security
|
|
model will always be activated if SELinux is available on the host
|
|
OS. To disable sVirt, and revert to the basic level of SELinux
|
|
protection (host protection only), the <code>/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf</code>
|
|
file can be used to change the setting to <code>security_driver="none"</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3><a id="securitysvirtaa">AppArmor sVirt confinement</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
When using basic AppArmor protection for the libvirtd daemon and
|
|
QEMU virtual machines, the intention is to protect the host OS
|
|
from a compromised virtual machine process. There is no protection
|
|
between guests.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The AppArmor sVirt protection for QEMU virtual machines builds on
|
|
this basic level of protection, to also allow individual guests to
|
|
be protected from each other.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the sVirt model, if a profile is loaded for the libvirtd daemon,
|
|
then each <code>qemu:///system</code> QEMU virtual machine will have
|
|
a profile created for it when the virtual machine is started if one
|
|
does not already exist. This generated profile uses a profile name
|
|
based on the UUID of the QEMU virtual machine and contains rules
|
|
allowing access to only the files it needs to run, such as its disks,
|
|
pid file and log files. Just before the QEMU virtual machine is
|
|
started, the libvirtd daemon will change into this unique profile,
|
|
preventing the QEMU process from accessing any file resources that
|
|
are present in another QEMU process or the host machine.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The AppArmor sVirt implementation is flexible in that it allows an
|
|
administrator to customize the template file in
|
|
<code>/etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/TEMPLATE</code> for site-specific
|
|
access for all newly created QEMU virtual machines. Also, when a new
|
|
profile is generated, two files are created:
|
|
<code>/etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/libvirt-<uuid></code> and
|
|
<code>/etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/libvirt-<uuid>.files</code>. The
|
|
former can be fine-tuned by the administrator to allow custom access
|
|
for this particular QEMU virtual machine, and the latter will be
|
|
updated appropriately when required file access changes, such as when
|
|
a disk is added. This flexibility allows for situations such as
|
|
having one virtual machine in complain mode with all others in
|
|
enforce mode.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
While users can define their own AppArmor profile scheme, a typical
|
|
configuration will include a profile for <code>/usr/sbin/libvirtd</code>,
|
|
<code>/usr/lib/libvirt/virt-aa-helper</code> (a helper program which the
|
|
libvirtd daemon uses instead of manipulating AppArmor directly), and
|
|
an abstraction to be included by <code>/etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/TEMPLATE</code>
|
|
(typically <code>/etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/libvirt-qemu</code>).
|
|
An example profile scheme can be found in the examples/apparmor
|
|
directory of the source distribution.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the sVirt security model is active, then the node capabilities
|
|
XML will include its details. If a virtual machine is currently
|
|
protected by the security model, then the guest XML will include
|
|
its assigned profile name. If enabled at compile time, the sVirt
|
|
security model will be activated if AppArmor is available on the host
|
|
OS and a profile for the libvirtd daemon is loaded when libvirtd is
|
|
started. To disable sVirt, and revert to the basic level of AppArmor
|
|
protection (host protection only), the <code>/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf</code>
|
|
file can be used to change the setting to <code>security_driver="none"</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3><a id="securityacl">Cgroups device ACLs</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Linux kernels have a capability known as "cgroups" which is used
|
|
for resource management. It is implemented via a number of "controllers",
|
|
each controller covering a specific task/functional area. One of the
|
|
available controllers is the "devices" controller, which is able to
|
|
setup whitelists of block/character devices that a cgroup should be
|
|
allowed to access. If the "devices" controller is mounted on a host,
|
|
then libvirt will automatically create a dedicated cgroup for each
|
|
QEMU virtual machine and setup the device whitelist so that the QEMU
|
|
process can only access shared devices, and explicitly disks images
|
|
backed by block devices.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The list of shared devices a guest is allowed access to is
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
/dev/null, /dev/full, /dev/zero,
|
|
/dev/random, /dev/urandom,
|
|
/dev/ptmx, /dev/kvm,
|
|
/dev/rtc, /dev/hpet
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the event of unanticipated needs arising, this can be customized
|
|
via the <code>/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf</code> file.
|
|
To mount the cgroups device controller, the following command
|
|
should be run as root, prior to starting libvirtd
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
mkdir /dev/cgroup
|
|
mount -t cgroup none /dev/cgroup -o devices
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
libvirt will then place each virtual machine in a cgroup at
|
|
<code>/dev/cgroup/libvirt/qemu/$VMNAME/</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a id="imex">Import and export of libvirt domain XML configs</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The QEMU driver currently supports a single native
|
|
config format known as <code>qemu-argv</code>. The data for this format
|
|
is expected to be a single line first a list of environment variables,
|
|
then the QEMu binary name, finally followed by the QEMU command line
|
|

relying on a qemu-specific pass-through. If you find yourself
|
|
needing to use them to access a particular qemu feature, then
|
|
please post an RFE to the libvirt mailing list to get that
|
|
feature incorporated into the stable libvirt XML and API
|
|
interfaces.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The library provides two
|
|
API: <code>virDomainQemuMonitorCommand</code>, for sending an
|
|
arbitrary monitor command (in either HMP or QMP format) to a
|
|
qemu guest (<span class="since">Since 0.8.3</span>),
|
|
and <code>virDomainQemuAttach</code>, for registering a qemu
|
|
domain that was manually started so that it can then be managed
|
|
by libvirtd (<span class="since">Since 0.9.4</span>,
|
|
<span class="removed">removed as of 5.5.0</span>).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Additionally, the following XML additions allow fine-tuning of
|
|
the command line given to qemu when starting a domain
|
|
(<span class="since">Since 0.8.3</span>). In order to use the
|
|
XML additions, it is necessary to issue an XML namespace request
|
|
(the special <code>xmlns:<i>name</i></code> attribute) that
|
|
pulls in <code>http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0</code>;
|
|
typically, the namespace is given the name
|
|
of <code>qemu</code>. With the namespace in place, it is then
|
|
possible to add an element <code><qemu:commandline></code>
|
|
under <code>driver</code>, with the following sub-elements
|
|
repeated as often as needed:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt><code>qemu:arg</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Add an additional command-line argument to the qemu
|
|
process when starting the domain, given by the value of the
|
|
attribute <code>value</code>.
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>qemu:env</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Add an additional environment variable to the qemu
|
|
process when starting the domain, given with the name-value
|
|
pair recorded in the attributes <code>name</code>
|
|
and optional <code>value</code>.</dd>
|
|
</dl>

<h2><a id="xmlnsfeatures">QEMU feature configuration for testing</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In some cases e.g. when developing a new feature or for testing it may
|
|
be required to control a given qemu feature (or qemu capability) to test
|
|
it before it's complete or disable it for debugging purposes.
|
|
<span class="since">Since 5.5.0</span> it's possible to use the same
|
|
special qemu namespace as above
|
|
(<code>http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0</code>) and use
|
|
<code><qemu:capabilities></code> element to add
|
|
(<code><qemu:add capability="capname"/></code>) or remove
|
|
(<code><qemu:del capability="capname"/></code>) capability bits.
|
|
The naming of the feature bits is the same libvirt uses in the status
|
|
XML. Note that this feature is meant for experiments only and should
|
|
_not_ be used in production.
