Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] Don't add SPICE TLS channels when TLS is disabled

It's possible to disable SPICE TLS in qemu.conf. When this happens, libvirt ignores any SPICE TLS port or x509 directory that may have been set when it builds the qemu command line to use. However, it's not ignoring the secure channels that may have been set and adds tls-channel arguments to qemu command line. Current qemu versions don't report an error when this happens, and try to use TLS for the specified channels. Before this patch <domain type='kvm'> <name>auto-tls-port</name> <memory>65536</memory> <os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc'>hvm</type> </os> <devices> <graphics type='spice' port='5900' tlsPort='-1' autoport='yes' listen='0' ke <listen type='address' address='0'/> <channel name='main' mode='secure'/> <channel name='inputs' mode='secure'/> </graphics> </devices> </domain> generates -spice port=5900,addr=0,disable-ticketing,tls-channel=main,tls-channel=inputs and after this patch we get -spice port=5900,addr=0,disable-ticketing
