[libvirt] [PATCH v2] storage: Combine some duplicate code

Since the + filtering rules + cannot be circumvented from within + the virtual machine, it makes them mandatory from the point of + view of a virtual machine user. + <br><br> + The network filter subsystem allows each virtual machine's network + traffic filtering rules to be configured individually on a per + interface basis. The rules are + applied on the host when the virtual machine is started and can be modified + while the virtual machine is running. The latter can be achieved by + modifying the XML description of a network filter. + <br><br> + Multiple virtual machines can make use of the same generic network filter. + When such a filter is modified, the network traffic filtering rules + of all running virtual machines that reference this filter are updated. + <br><br> + Network filtering support is available <span class="since">since 0.8.1 + (Qemu, KVM)</span> + </p> + + <h2><a name="nwfconcpts">Concepts</a></h2> + <p> + The network traffic filtering subsystem enables configuration + of network traffic filtering rules on individual network + interfaces that are configured for certain types of + network configurations. Supported network types are + </p> + <ul> + <li><code>network</code></li> + <li><code>ethernet</code> -- must be used in bridging mode</li> + <li><code>bridge</code></li> + <li><code>direct</code> -- only protocols mac, arp, ip and ipv6 + can be filtered</li> + </ul> + <p> + The interface XML is used to reference a top-level filter.

The above referenced filter + <code>clean-traffic </code> is a filter that for example only + contains references to + other filters and no actual filtering rules. Since references to + other filters can be used, a <i>tree</i> of filters can be built. + The <code>clean-traffic</code> filter can be viewed using the + command <code>virsh nwfilter-dumpxml clean-traffic</code>. + <br><br> + As previously mentioned, a single network filter can be referenced + by multiple virtual machines. Since interfaces will typically + have individual parameters associated with their respective traffic + filtering rules, the rules described in a filter XML can + be parameterized with variables. In this case, the variable name + is used in the filter XML and the name and value are provided at the + place where the filter is referenced. In the + following example, the interface description has been extended with + the parameter <code>IP</code> and a dotted IP address as value. + </p> +<pre> + ... + <devices> + <interface type='bridge'> + <mac address='00:16:3e:5d:c7:9e'/> + <filterref filter='clean-traffic'> + <parameter name='IP' value='10.0.0.1'/> + </filterref> + </interface> + </devices> + ...</pre> + + <p> + In this particular example, the <code>clean-traffic</code> network + traffic filter will be instantiated with the IP address parameter + 10.0.0.1 and enforce that the traffic from this interface will + always be using 10.0.0.1 as the source IP address, which is + one of the purposes of this particular filter. + <br><br> + </p> + + <h3><a name="nwfconcptsvars">Usage of variables in filters</a></h3> + <p> + + Two variables names have so far been reserved for usage by the + network traffic filtering subsystem: <code>MAC</code> and + <code>IP</code>. + <br><br> + <code>MAC</code> is the MAC address of the + network interface. A filtering rule that references this variable + will automatically be instantiated with the MAC address of the + interface. This works without the user having to explicitly provide + the MAC parameter. Even though it is possible to specify the MAC + parameter similar to the IP parameter above, it is discouraged + since libvirt knows what MAC address an interface will be using. + <br><br> + The parameter <code>IP</code> represents the IP address + that the operating system inside the virtual machine is expected + to use on the given interface. The <code>IP</code> parameter + is special in so far as the libvirt daemon will try to determine + the IP address (and thus the IP parameter's value) that is being + used on an interface if the parameter + is not explicitly provided but referenced. + For current limitations on IP address detection, consult the + <a href="#nwflimits">section on limitations</a> on how to use this + feature and what to expect when using it. + <br><br> + The following is the XML description of the network filer + <code>no-arp-spoofing</code>. It serves as an example for + a network filter XML referencing the <code>MAC</code> and + <code>IP</code> parameters. This particular filter is referenced by the + <code>clean-traffic</code> filter. + </p> +<pre> +<filter name='no-arp-spoofing' chain='arp'> + <uuid>f88f1932-debf-4aa1-9fbe-f10d3aa4bc95</uuid> + <rule action='drop' direction='out' priority='300'> + <mac match='no' srcmacaddr='$MAC'/> + </rule> + <rule action='drop' direction='out' priority='350'> + <arp match='no' arpsrcmacaddr='$MAC'/> + </rule> + <rule action='drop' direction='out' priority='400'> + <arp match='no' arpsrcipaddr='$IP'/> + </rule> + <rule action='drop' direction='in' priority='450'> + <arp opcode='Reply'/> + <arp match='no' arpdstmacaddr='$MAC'/> + </rule> + <rule action='drop' direction='in' priority='500'> + <arp match='no' arpdstipaddr='$IP'/> + </rule> + <rule action='accept' direction='inout' priority='600'> + <arp opcode='Request'/> + </rule> + <rule action='accept' direction='inout' priority='650'> + <arp opcode='Reply'/> + </rule> + <rule action='drop' direction='inout' priority='1000'/> +</filter> +</pre> + + <p> + Note that referenced variables are always prefixed with the + $ (dollar) sign.

This + node must have the attribute <code>filter</code> whose value contains + the name of the filter to be referenced. + <br><br> + New network filters can be defined at any time and + may contain references to network filters that are + not known to libvirt, yet.

If this attribute is not + provided, the value 500 will automatically be assigned. + </li> + </ul> + <p> + The above example indicates that the traffic of type <code>ip</code> + will be asscociated with the chain 'ipv4' and the rule will have + priority 500. If for example another filter is referenced whose + traffic of type <code>ip</code> is also associated with the chain + 'ipv4' then that filter's rules will be ordered relative to the priority + 500 of the shown rule. + <br><br> + A rule may contain a single rule for filtering of traffic. The + above example shows that traffic of type <code>ip</code> is to be + filtered. + </p> + + <h4><a name="nwfelemsRulesProto">Supported protocols</a></h4> + <p> + The following sections enumerate the list of protocols that + are supported by the network filtering subsystem. The + type of traffic a rule is supposed to filter on is provided + in the <code>rule</code> node as a nested node. Depending + on the traffic type a rule is filtering, the attributes are + different. The above example showed the single + attribute <code>srcipaddr</code> that is valid inside the + <code>ip</code> traffic filtering node. The following sections + show what attributes are valid and what type of data they are + expecting. The following datatypes are available: + </p> + <ul> + <li>UINT8 : 8 bit integer; range 0-255</li> + <li>UINT16: 16 bit integer; range 0-65535</li> + <li>MAC_ADDR: MAC adrress in dotted decimal format, i.e., 00:11:22:33:44:55</li> + <li>MAC_MASK: MAC address mask in MAC address format, i.e., FF:FF:FF:FC:00:00</li> + <li>IP_ADDR: IP address in dotted decimal format, i.e., 10.1.2.3</li> + <li>IP_MASK: IP address mask in either dotted decimal format (255.255.248.0) or CIDR mask (0-32)</li> + <li>IPV6_ADDR: IPv6 address in numbers format, i.e., FFFF::1</li> + <li>IPV6_MASK: IPv6 mask in numbers format (FFFF:FFFF:FC00::) or CIDR mask (0-128)</li> + <li>STRING: A string</li> + </ul> + <p> + <br><br> + Every attribute except for those of type IP_MASK or IPV6_MASK can + be negated using the <code>match</code> + attribute with value <code>no</code>.

When planning on doing so + there are a couple of things + you may need to know regarding the network filtering subsystem and how + it works internally. Certainly you also have to know and understand + the protocols very well that you want to be filtering on so that + no further traffic than what you want can pass and that in fact the + traffic you want to allow does pass. + <br><br> + The network filtering subsystem is currently only available on + Linux hosts and only works for Qemu and KVM type of virtual machines. + On Linux + it builds upon the support for <code>ebtables</code>, <code>iptables + </code> and <code>ip6tables</code> and makes use of their features. + From the above list of supported protocols the following ones are + implemented using <code>ebtables</code>: + </p> + <ul> + <li>mac</li> + <li>arp, rarp</li> + <li>ip</li> + <li>ipv6</li> + </uL> + + <p> + All other protocols over IPv4 are supported using iptables, those over + IPv6 are implemented using ip6tables. + <br><br> + On a Linux host, all traffic filtering instantiated by libvirt's network + filter subsystem first passes through the filtering support implemented + by ebtables and only then through iptables or ip6tables filters. If + a filter tree has rules with the protocols <code>mac</code>, + <code>arp</code>, <code>rarp</code>, <code>ip</code>, or <code>ipv6</code> + ebtables rules will automatically be instantiated. + <br> + The role of the <code>chain</code> attribute in the network filter + XML is that internally a new user-defined ebtables table is created + that then for example receives all <code>arp</code> traffic coming + from or going to a virtual machine, if the chain <code>arp</code> + has been specified. Further, a rule is generated in an interface's + <code>root</code> chain that directs all ipv4 traffic into the + user-defined chain. Therefore, all ARP traffic rules should then be + placed into filters specifying this chain. This type of branching + into user-define tables is only supported with filtering on the ebtables + layer. + <br> + As an example, it is + possible to filter on UDP traffic by source and destination ports using + the <code>ip</code> protocol filter and specifying attributes for the + protocol, source and destination IP addresses and ports of UDP packets + that are to be accepted. This allows + early filtering of UDP traffic with ebtables. However, once an IP or IPv6 + packet, such as a UDP packet, + has passed the ebtables layer and there is at least one rule in a filter + tree that instantiates iptables or ip6tables rules, a rule to let + the UDP packet pass will also be necessary to be provided for those + filtering layers. This can be + achieved with a rule containing an approriate <code>udp</code> or + <code>udp-ipv6</code> traffic filtering node. + </p> + + <h3><a name="nwfwriteexample">Example custom filter</a></h3> + <p> + As an example we want to now build a filter that fulfills the following + list of requirements: + </p> + <ul> + <li>prevents a VM's interface from MAC, IP and ARP spoofing</li> + <li>opens only TCP ports 22 and 80 of a VM's interface</li> + <li>allows the VM to send ping traffic from an interface + but no let the VM be pinged on the interface</li> + </ul> + <p> + The requirement to prevent spoofing is fulfilled by the existing + <code>clean-traffic</code> network filter, thus we will reference this + filter from our custom filter. + <br> + To enable traffic for TCP ports 22 and 80 we will add 2 rules to + enable this type of traffic. To allow the VM to send ping traffic + we will add a rule for ICMP traffic. For simplicity reasons + we allow general ICMP traffic to be initated from the VM, not + just ICMP echo request and response messages. To then + disallow all other traffic to reach or be initated by the + VM we will then need to add a rule that drops all other traffic. + Assuming our VM is called <i>test</i> and + the interface we want to associate our filter with is called <i>eth0</i>, + we name our filter <i>test-eth0</i>. + The result of these considerations is the following network filter XML: + </p> +<pre> +<filter name='test-eth0'> +  + <filterref filter='clean-traffic'/> + +  + <rule action='accept' direction='in'> + <tcp dstportstart='22'/> + </rule> + + <rule action='accept' direction='in'> + <tcp dstportstart='80'/> + </rule> + +  + <rule action='accept' direction='out'> + <icmp/> + </rule> + +  + <rule action='drop' direction='inout'> + <all/> + </rule> + +</filter> +</pre> + <p> + Note that none of the rules in the above XML contain the + IP address of the VM as either source or destination address, yet + the filtering of the traffic works correctly. The reason is that + the evaluation of the rules internally happens on a + per-interface basis and the rules are evaluated based on the knowledge + about which (tap) interface has sent or will receive the packet rather + than what their source or destination IP address may be. + <br><br> + An XML fragment for a possible network interface description inside + the domain XML of the <code>test</code> VM could then look like this: + </p> +<pre> + [...] + <interface type='bridge'> + <source bridge='mybridge'/> + <filterref filter='test-eth0'/> + </interface> + [...] +</pre> + + <p> + To more strictly control the ICMP traffic and enforce that only + ICMP echo requests can be sent from the VM + and only ICMP echo responses be received by the VM, the above + <code>ICMP</code> rule can be replaced with the following two rules: + </p> +<pre> +  + <rule action='accept' direction='out'> + <icmp type='8'/> + </rule> + +  + <rule action='accept' direction='in'> + <icmp type='0'/> + </rule> +</pre> + + + <h2><a name="nwflimits">Limitations</a></h2> + <p> + The following sections list (current) limitations of the network + filtering subsystem. + </p> + + <h3><a name="nwflimitsIP">IP Address Detection</a></h3> + <p> + In case a network filter references the variable + <i>IP</i> and no variable was defined in any higher layer + references to the filter, IP address detection will automatically + be started when the filter is to be instantiated (VM start, interface + hotplug event).

[libvirt] [PATCH] Add host UUID (to libvirt capabilities)

by Stefan Berger

This patch adds the host UUID (to the capabilities of libvirt). The user may provide it in libvirtd.conf overriding whatever dmidecode may return. If none or no valid UUID is provided in libvirtd.conf, dmidecode is being used. If that function doesn't provide a valid (not all digits may be equal), generate a temporary one. virSetHostUUIDStr() should be called first with the UUID read from libvirtd.conf, but may only be called once. Subsequently the functions virGetHostUUID[Str]() can be called to get the UUID of the host. Besides that, this patch - adds a dependency on the dmidecode package - adds uuid to the capabilties XML schema - displays the UUID in in 'virsh capabilities' - adds 3 public functions to uuid.h for setting and getting the UUID of the host This patch contains recycled code from Scott Feldman (getDMISystemUUID()).

Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] network: bridge: Don't start network if it collides with host routing

by Neil Wilson

You need to be very careful not to hit a valid use case here. RFC3069 provides for a mechanism whereby a supernet/subnet system is setup to allow better use of available IPv4 address space. This is becoming of increasing concern as IPv4 space exhausts. To implement this you turn on Proxy ARP on a host and inject /32 routes advertised from other hosts into the routing table. The network on the current host has a wide subnet mask (for example 10.0.0.0/8), so that the host responds to ARPs for VM guests that are actually on a completely different host. So you could have the situation where you have routes picked up via a dynamic routing protocol (say OSPF) on a host that are inside the range for the defined network in libvirt. Failing to start the network in that case would be incorrect. -- Neil Wilson -- Neil Wilson

[libvirt] Question about the libvirt Java bindings

by Dustin Xiong

Dear all: I encounter a problem when I running the libvirt java bindings test program. I download the libvirt-java-0.4.3.tar.gz. Then compiled successful, but the test program can't running. # ant build Buildfile: build.xml init: [copy] Copying 1 file to /home/dustin/libvirt-java-0.4.3 build: BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 0 seconds # javac -classpath /home/dustin/libvirt-java-0.4.3/target/libvirt-0.4.3.jar test.java Note: test.java uses or overrides a deprecated API. Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details. (I think this will not affect the use of libvirt library. It‘s just a warning. javac -classpath /home/dustin/libvirt-java-0.4.3/target/libvirt-0.4.3.jar test.java -Xlint:deprecation test.java:142: warning: [deprecation] networkLookupByUUID(int[]) in org.libvirt.Connect has been deprecated testNetwork = conn.networkLookupByUUID(UUIDArray); ^ 1 warning Maybe I am wrong?) # java -classpath .:/usr/share/java/jna.jar:/home/dustin/libvirt-java-0.4.3/target/libvirt-0.4.3.jar test Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: jnidispatch (/com/sun/jna/linux-i386/libjnidispatch.so) not found in resource path at com.sun.jna.Native.loadNativeLibraryFromJar(Native.java:592) at com.sun.jna.Native.loadNativeLibrary(Native.java:574) at com.sun.jna.Native.<clinit>(Native.java:104) at org.libvirt.jna.Libvirt.<clinit>(Unknown Source) at org.libvirt.Connect.<clinit>(Unknown Source) at test.main(test.java:43) I test other test.java, the results are the same. I don't know the libjnidispatch.so can't be find is caused by the libvirt-java or JNA library. How can I resolve the problem? My java environment as below: libjna-java-3.1.0-1 sun-java6-jdk-6-15-1 junit-3.8.2-3 Thank you very much. -Dustin 2010-5-24 _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail: Trusted email with Microsoft’s powerful SPAM protection. https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969

[libvirt] [PATCH 00/10] Add support for SPICE graphics in QEMU

by Daniel P. Berrange

Gerd today posted patches to upstream QEMU which support SPICE graphics. They have not been accepted / merged yet, but I'm optimistic that the command line syntax will not change significantly. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2010-04/msg00967.html This patch series adds corresponding support in libvirt's QEMU driver. Although this patch series adds support in the XML RNG for a password expiry time, this functionality isn't wired up in this patch series since I need more time to write fallback code for cases where QEMU doesn't do expiry itself.

[libvirt] [RFC] [PATCH 3/3 v2] vepa+vsi: Some experimental code for 802.1Qbh

by Stefan Berger

This patch may get 802.1Qbh devices working. I am adding some code to poll for the status of an 802.1Qbh device and loop for a while until the status indicates success. This part for sure needs more work and testing... I am recycling link_dump from a previous patch.
