[PATCHv3 3/2] qemu: don't request cgroup ACL access for /dev/net/tun

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Since libvirt always passes /dev/net/tun to qemu via fd, we should
never trigger the cases where qemu tries to directly open the
device.  Therefore, it is safer to deny the cgroup device ACL.

* src/qemu/qemu_cgroup.c (defaultDeviceACL): Remove /dev/net/tun.
* src/qemu/qemu.conf (cgroup_device_acl): Reflect this change.
---

Might as well fix this in the process of audit cleanups.  I tested
that I was still able to access the network through a virtio
connection with cgroup ACL enforcing in the host after this change.
And it matches the fact that we did not have a cgroup ACL allow
for /dev/tapN devices (also passed via fd).
