2016-07-04crypto: allow default TLS priority to be chosen at build timeDaniel P. Berrange
Modern gnutls can use a global config file to control the crypto priority settings for TLS connections. For example the priority string "@SYSTEM" instructs gnutls to find the priority setting named "SYSTEM" in the global config file. Latest gnutls GIT codebase gained the ability to reference multiple priority strings in the config file, with the first one that is found to existing winning. This means it is now possible to configure QEMU out of the box with a default priority of "@QEMU,SYSTEM", which says to look for the settings "QEMU" first, and if not found, use the "SYSTEM" settings. To make use of this facility, we introduce the ability to set the QEMU default priority at build time via a new configure argument. It is anticipated that distro vendors will set this when building QEMU to a suitable value for use with distro crypto policy setup. eg current Fedora would run ./configure --tls-priority=@SYSTEM while future Fedora would run ./configure --tls-priority=@QEMU,SYSTEM Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

2016-07-04crypto: add support for TLS priority string overrideDaniel P. Berrange
The gnutls default priority is either "NORMAL" (most historical versions of gnutls) which is a built-in label in gnutls code, or "@SYSTEM" (latest gnutls on Fedora at least) which refers to an admin customizable entry in a gnutls config file. Regardless of which default is used by a distro, they are both global defaults applying to all applications using gnutls. If a single application on the system needs to use a weaker set of crypto priorities, this potentially forces the weakness onto all applications. Or conversely if a single application wants a strong default than all others, it can't do this via the global config file. This adds an extra parameter to the tls credential object which allows the mgmt app / user to explicitly provide a priority string to QEMU when configuring TLS. For example, to use the "NORMAL" priority, but disable SSL 3.0 one can now configure QEMU thus: $QEMU -object tls-creds-x509,id=tls0,dir=/home/berrange/qemutls,\ priority="NORMAL:-VERS-SSL3.0" \ ..other args... If creating tls-creds-anon, whatever priority the user specifies will always have "+ANON-DH" appended to it, since that's mandatory to make the anonymous credentials work. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

2016-03-22include/qemu/osdep.h: Don't include qapi/error.hMarkus Armbruster
Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the Error typedef. Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h everywhere. Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h, compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a similar job to this file and are under similar constraints." qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of 100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need. Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List. Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h, sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h comment quoted above similarly. This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all of them" to less than a third. Unfortunately, the number depending on qapi-types.h shrinks only a little. More work is needed for that one. Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> [Fix compilation without the spice devel packages. - Paolo] Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2016-01-29crypto: Clean up includesPeter Maydell
Clean up includes so that osdep.h is included first and headers which it implies are not included manually. This commit was created with scripts/clean-includes. Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Message-id: 1453832250-766-3-git-send-email-peter.maydell@linaro.org
2015-11-18crypto: fix mistaken setting of Error in success code pathDaniel P. Berrange
The qcrypto_tls_session_check_certificate() method was setting an Error even when the ACL check suceeded. This didn't affect the callers detection of errors because they relied on the function return status, but this did cause a memory leak since the caller would not free an Error they did not expect to be set.

2015-09-15crypto: introduce new module for handling TLS sessionsDaniel P. Berrange
Introduce a QCryptoTLSSession object that will encapsulate all the code for setting up and using a client/sever TLS session. This isolates the code which depends on the gnutls library, avoiding #ifdefs in the rest of the codebase, as well as facilitating any possible future port to other TLS libraries, if desired. It makes use of the previously defined QCryptoTLSCreds object to access credentials to use with the session. It also includes further unit tests to validate the correctness of the TLS session handshake and certificate validation. This is functionally equivalent to the current TLS session handling code embedded in the VNC server, and will obsolete it. Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>
