I tried reverting this patch, but then probing qemu binaries during libvirtd startup fails so not a good workaround :) The patch below works for me, but it needs careful review as this is code I don't know at all and I've only lightly tested it. This issue is a 1.0.3 blocker as far as Boxes is concerned. Thanks, Christophe From 6474eb9dc04dcaa29450116ddfb76aefdaffd4f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christophe Fergeau <cfergeau(a)redhat.com&gt; Date: Sat, 2 Mar 2013 15:19:47 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] qemu: Use -1 as unpriviledged uid/gid Commit f506a4c1 changed virSetUIDGID() to be a noop when uid/gid are -1, while it used to be a noop when they are <= 0. The changes in this commit broke creating new VMs in GNOME Boxes as qemuDomainCheckDiskPresence gets called during domain creation/startup, which in turn calls virFileAccessibleAs which fails after calling virSetUIDGID(0, 0) (Boxes uses session libvirtd). This commit changes virQEMUDriverConfigNew to use -1 as the unpriviledged uid/gid, and adjusts one code path that expected 0 in this case. I've also looked at the various places where cfg->user is used, and they all seem to handle -1 correctly. --- src/qemu/qemu_conf.c | 4 ++-- src/qemu/qemu_domain.c | 4 ++-- 2 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_conf.c b/src/qemu/qemu_conf.c index f3b09cf..3ef3499 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_conf.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_conf.c @@ -129,8 +129,8 @@ virQEMUDriverConfigPtr virQEMUDriverConfigNew(bool privileged) if (virGetGroupID(QEMU_GROUP, &cfg->group) < 0) goto error; } else { - cfg->user = 0; - cfg->group = 0; + cfg->user = (uid_t)-1; + cfg->group = (gid_t)-1; } cfg->dynamicOwnership = privileged;
