Re: [libvirt] [PATCHv2] Disable nwfilter driver when running unprivileged

When running unprivileged, nwfilter state already skips most of the initialization. Also forbid opening connections to the nwfilter driver when unprivileged. This changes the nwfilter-define error from: error: cannot create config directory (null): Bad address To: this function is not supported by the connection driver: virNWFilterDefineXML https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1029266 --- v1: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-November/msg00368.html v2: forbid everything instead of just virNWFilterDefineXML src/nwfilter/nwfilter_driver.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/src/nwfilter/nwfilter_driver.c b/src/nwfilter/nwfilter_driver.c index 6602d73..d6e492f 100644 --- a/src/nwfilter/nwfilter_driver.c +++ b/src/nwfilter/nwfilter_driver.c @@ -415,7 +415,7 @@ nwfilterOpen(virConnectPtr conn, { virCheckFlags(VIR_CONNECT_RO, VIR_DRV_OPEN_ERROR); - if (!driverState) + if (!driverState || !driverState->privileged) return VIR_DRV_OPEN_DECLINED; conn->nwfilterPrivateData = driverState;
