      nbd: enable use of TLS with qemu-nbd server · 145614a1
      Daniel P. Berrange authored 
      This modifies the qemu-nbd program so that it is possible to
request the use of TLS with the server. It simply adds a new
command line option --tls-creds which is used to provide the
ID of a QCryptoTLSCreds object previously created via the
--object command line option.

For example

  qemu-nbd --object tls-creds-x509,id=tls0,endpoint=server,\
                    dir=/home/berrange/security/qemutls \
           --tls-creds tls0 \
           --exportname default

TLS requires the new style NBD protocol, so if no export name
is set (via --export-name), then we use the default NBD protocol
export name ""

TLS is only supported when using an IPv4/IPv6 socket listener.
It is not possible to use with UNIX sockets, which includes
when connecting the NBD server to a host device.

      nbd: allow setting of an export name for qemu-nbd server · 3d4b2f9c
      Daniel P. Berrange authored 
      The qemu-nbd server currently always uses the old style protocol
since it never sets any export name. This is a problem because
future TLS support will require use of the new style protocol
negotiation.

This adds "--exportname NAME" / "-x NAME" arguments to qemu-nbd
which allow the user to set an explicit export name. When an
export name is set the server will always use the new style
NBD protocol.

      qemu-nbd: add support for --object command line arg · 0ab3b337
      Daniel P. Berrange authored 
      Allow creation of user creatable object types with qemu-nbd
via a new --object command line arg. This will be used to supply
passwords and/or encryption keys to the various block driver
backends via the recently added 'secret' object type.

 # printf letmein > mypasswd.txt
 # qemu-nbd --object secret,id=sec0,file=mypasswd.txt \
      ...other nbd args...

      Add -f FMT / --format FMT arg to qemu-nbd · e6b63677
      Daniel P. Berrange authored 
      Currently the qemu-nbd program will auto-detect the format of
any disk it is given. This behaviour is known to be insecure.
For example, if qemu-nbd initially exposes a 'raw' file to an
unprivileged app, and that app runs

   'qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=/etc/shadow /dev/nbd0'

then the next time the app is started, the qemu-nbd will now
detect it as a 'qcow2' file and expose /etc/shadow to the
unprivileged app.

The only way to avoid this is to explicitly tell qemu-nbd what
disk format to use on the command line, completely disabling
auto-detection. This patch adds a '-f' / '--format' arg for
this purpose, mirroring what is already available via qemu-img
and qemu commands.

  qemu-nbd --format raw -p 9000 evil.img

will now always use raw, regardless of what format 'evil.img'
looks like it contains
