Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v3 3/6] migration: add support for a "tls-authz" migration parameter

From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange(a)redhat.com&gt; The QEMU instance that runs as the server for the migration data transport (ie the target QEMU) needs to be able to configure access control so it can prevent unauthorized clients initiating an incoming migration. This adds a new 'tls-authz' migration parameter that is used to provide the QOM ID of a QAuthZ subclass instance that provides the access control check. This is checked against the x509 certificate obtained during the TLS handshake. For example, when starting a QEMU for incoming migration, it is possible to give an example identity of the source QEMU that is intended to be connecting later: $QEMU \ -monitor stdio \ -incoming defer \ ...other args... (qemu) object_add tls-creds-x509,id=tls0,dir=/home/berrange/qemutls,\ endpoint=server,verify-peer=yes \ (qemu) object_add authz-simple,id=auth0,identity=CN=laptop.example.com,,\ O=Example Org,,L=London,,ST=London,,C=GB \ (qemu) migrate_incoming tcp:localhost:9000 Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
