This series of patches adds support for migrating vTPMs across hosts whose
storage has been set up to share the directory structure holding the state
of the TPM (swtpm). The existence of share storage influences the
management of the directory structure holding the TPM state, which for
example is only removed when a domain is undefined and not when a VM is
removed on the migration source host. Further, when shared storage is used
then security labeling on the destination side is skipped assuming that the
labeling was already done on the source side.
I have tested this with an NFS setup where I had to turn SELinux off on
the hosts since the SELinux MLS range labeling is not supported by NFS.
For shared storage support to work properly both sides of the migration
need to be clients of the shared storage setup, meaning that they both have
to have /var/lib/libvirt/swtpm mounted as shared storage, because other-
wise the virFileIsSharedFS() may not detect shared storage and in the
worst case may cause the TPM emulator (swtpm) to malfunction if for
example the source side removed the TPM state directory structure.
Shared storage migration requires (upcoming) swtpm v0.8.
Stefan
v4:
- Fixed long-standing bug regarding offline migration that now blocks if
no shared storage is set up
- Addressed Michal's concerns
v3:
- Relying entirely on virFileIsSharedFS() on migration source and
destination sides to detect whether shared storage is set up between
hosts; no more hint about shared storage from user via flag
- Added support for virDomainTPMPrivate structure to store and persist
TPM-related private data
Stefan Berger (7):
util: Add parsing support for swtpm's cmdarg-migration capability
qemu: tpm: Allow offline migration with TPM_EMULATOR only with shared
storage
qemu: tpm: Conditionally create storage on incoming migration
qemu: tpm: Add support for storing private TPM-related data
qemu: tpm: Pass --migration option to swtpm if supported and needed
qemu: tpm: Avoid security labels on incoming migration with shared
storage
qemu: tpm: Never remove state on outgoing migration and shared storage
