This deletes a block of code that raised a command index error if a command returned response data, but the guest did not set the appropriate bits in the response register to handle such a response. I cannot find any documentation that suggests the controller should behave in this way, the error code doesn't make sense (command index error is defined for the case where the index in a response does not match that of the issued command), and in at least one case (CMD23 issued by UEFI on Raspberry Pi 2), actual hardware does not do this.

2015-12-22sd: sdhci: Delete over-zealous power checkPeter Crosthwaite
This check was conditionalising SD card operation on the card being powered by the SDHCI host controller. It is however possible (particularly in embedded systems) for the power control of the SD card to be managed outside of SDHCI. This can be as trivial as hard-wiring the SD slot VCC to a constant power-rail. This means the guest SDHCI can validly opt-out of the SDHCI power control feature while still using the card. So delete this check to allow operation of the card with SDHCI power control. This is needed for at least Xilinx Zynq and Raspberry Pi, and also makes Freescale i.MX25 work for me. The digilent Zybo board has a public schematic which shows SD VCC hardwiring: http://digilentinc.com/Data/Products/ZYBO/ZYBO_sch_VB.3.pdf bottom of page 3.

2015-12-18crypto: add QCryptoSecret object class for password/key handlingDaniel P. Berrange
Introduce a new QCryptoSecret object class which will be used for providing passwords and keys to other objects which need sensitive credentials. The new object can provide secret values directly as properties, or indirectly via a file. The latter includes support for file descriptor passing syntax on UNIX platforms. Ordinarily passing secret values directly as properties is insecure, since they are visible in process listings, or in log files showing the CLI args / QMP commands. It is possible to use AES-256-CBC to encrypt the secret values though, in which case all that is visible is the ciphertext. For ad hoc developer testing though, it is fine to provide the secrets directly without encryption so this is not explicitly forbidden. The anticipated scenario is that libvirtd will create a random master key per QEMU instance (eg /var/run/libvirt/qemu/$VMNAME.key) and will use that key to encrypt all passwords it provides to QEMU via '-object secret,....'. This avoids the need for libvirt (or other mgmt apps) to worry about file descriptor passing. It also makes life easier for people who are scripting the management of QEMU, for whom FD passing is significantly more complex. Providing data inline (insecure, only for ad hoc dev testing) $QEMU -object secret,id=sec0,data=letmein Providing data indirectly in raw format printf "letmein" > mypasswd.txt $QEMU -object secret,id=sec0,file=mypasswd.txt Providing data indirectly in base64 format $QEMU -object secret,id=sec0,file=mykey.b64,format=base64 Providing data with encryption $QEMU -object secret,id=master0,file=mykey.b64,format=base64 \ -object secret,id=sec0,data=[base64 ciphertext],\ keyid=master0,iv=[base64 IV],format=base64 Note that 'format' here refers to the format of the ciphertext data. The decrypted data must always be in raw byte format. More examples are shown in the updated docs. Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>
