Back in the 2.3.0 release we declared qcow[2] encryption as
deprecated, warning people that it would be removed in a future
release.
commit a1f688f4152e65260b94f37543521ceff8bfebe4

block: Deprecate QCOW/QCOW2 encryption
The code still exists today, but by a (happy?) accident we entirely
broke the ability to use qcow[2] encryption in the system emulators
in the 2.4.0 release due to
commit 8336aafae1451d54c81dd2b187b45f7c45d2428e

qcow2/qcow: protect against uninitialized encryption key
This commit was designed to prevent future coding bugs which
might cause QEMU to read/write data on an encrypted block
device in plain text mode before a decryption key is set.
It turns out this preventative measure was a little too good,
because we already had a long standing bug where QEMU read
encrypted data in plain text mode during system emulator
startup, in order to guess disk geometry:

So the safety net is correctly preventing QEMU reading cipher
text as if it were plain text, during startup and aborting QEMU
to avoid bad usage of this data.
For added fun this bug only happens if the encrypted qcow2
file happens to have data written to the first cluster,
otherwise the cluster won't be allocated and so qcow2 would
not try the decryption routines at all, just return all 0's.
That no one even noticed, let alone reported, this bug that
has shipped in 2.4.0, 2.5.0 and 2.6.0 shows that the number
of actual users of encrypted qcow2 is approximately zero.
So rather than fix the crash, and backport it to stable
releases, just go ahead with what we have warned users about
and disable any use of qcow2 encryption in the system
emulators. qemu-img/qemu-io/qemu-nbd are still able to access
qcow2 encrypted images for the sake of data conversion.
In the future, qcow2 will gain support for the alternative
luks format, but when this happens it'll be using the
'-object secret' infrastructure for getting keys, which
avoids this problematic scenario entirely.

For a couple of releases we have been warning
Encrypted images are deprecated
Support for them will be removed in a future release.
You can use 'qemu-img convert' to convert your image to an unencrypted one.
This warning was issued by system emulators, qemu-img, qemu-nbd
and qemu-io. Such a broad warning was issued because the original
intention was to rip out all the code for dealing with encryption
inside the QEMU block layer APIs.
The new block encryption framework used for the LUKS driver does
not rely on the unloved block layer API for encryption keys,
instead using the QOM 'secret' object type. It is thus no longer
appropriate to warn about encryption unconditionally.
When the qcow/qcow2 drivers are converted to use the new encryption
framework too, it will be practical to keep AES-CBC support present
for use in qemu-img, qemu-io & qemu-nbd to allow for interoperability
with older QEMU versions and liberation of data from existing encrypted
qcow2 files.
This change moves the warning out of the generic block code and
into the qcow/qcow2 drivers. Further, the warning is set to only
appear when running the system emulators, since qemu-img, qemu-io,
qemu-nbd are expected to support qcow2 encryption long term now that
the maint burden has been eliminated.

Before this patch, blk_new() automatically assigned a name to the new
BlockBackend and considered it referenced by the monitor. This patch
removes the implicit monitor_add_blk() call from blk_new() (and
consequently the monitor_remove_blk() call from blk_delete(), too) and
thus blk_new() (and related functions) no longer take a BB name
argument.
In fact, there is only a single point where blk_new()/blk_new_open() is
called and the new BB is monitor-owned, and that is in blockdev_init().
Besides thus relieving us from having to invent names for all of the BBs
we use in qemu-img, this fixes a bug where qemu cannot create a new
image if there already is a monitor-owned BB named "image".
If a BB and its BDS tree are created in a single operation, as of this
patch the BDS tree will be created before the BB is given a name
(whereas it was the other way around before). This results in minor
change to the output of iotest 087, whose reference output is amended
accordingly.

If the "id" field is missing from the options given to blockdev-add,
just omit the BlockBackend and create the BlockDriverState tree alone.
However, if "id" is missing, "node-name" must be specified; otherwise,
the BDS tree would no longer be accessible.
Many BDS options which are not parsed by bdrv_open() (like caching)
cannot be specified for these BB-less BDS trees yet. A future patch will
remove this limitation.

This patch fixes an io test suite issue that was introduced with the
commit c88930a6866e74953e931ae749781e98e486e5c8 'qemu-char: Permit only
a single "stdio" character device'. The option supresses the creation of
default devices such as the floopy and cdrom. Output files for test case
067, 071, 081 and 087 need to be updated to accommodate this change.
Use virtio-blk instead of virtio-blk-pci as the device driver for test
case 067. For virtio-blk-pci is the same with virtio-blk as device
driver but other platform such as s390 may not recognize the virtio-blk-pci.
The default devices differ across machines. As the qemu output often
contains these devices (or events for them, like opening a CD tray on
reset), the reference output currently is rather machine-specific.
All existing qemu tests explicitly configure the devices they're working
with, so just pass -nodefaults to qemu by default to disable the default
devices. Update the reference outputs accordingly.

We've steered users away from QCOW/QCOW2 encryption for a while,
because it's a flawed design (commit 136cd19 Describe flaws in
qcow/qcow2 encryption in the docs).
In addition to flawed crypto, we have comically bad usability, and
plain old bugs. Let me show you.
= Example images =
I'm going to use a raw image as backing file, and two QCOW2 images,
one encrypted, and one not:
$ qemu-img create -f raw backing.img 4m
Formatting 'backing.img', fmt=raw size=4194304
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o encryption,backing_file=backing.img,backing_fmt=raw geheim.qcow2 4m
Formatting 'geheim.qcow2', fmt=qcow2 size=4194304 backing_file='backing.img' backing_fmt='raw' encryption=on cluster_size=65536 lazy_refcounts=off
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=backing.img,backing_fmt=raw normal.qcow2 4m
Formatting 'normal.qcow2', fmt=qcow2 size=4194304 backing_file='backing.img' backing_fmt='raw' encryption=off cluster_size=65536 lazy_refcounts=off
= Usability issues =
== Confusing startup ==
When no image is encrypted, and you don't give -S, QEMU starts the
guest immediately:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none -monitor stdio normal.qcow2
QEMU 2.2.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info status
VM status: running
But as soon as there's an encrypted image in play, the guest is *not*
started, with no notification whatsoever:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none -monitor stdio geheim.qcow2
QEMU 2.2.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info status
VM status: paused (prelaunch)
If the user figured out that he needs to type "cont" to enter his
keys, the confusion enters the next level: "cont" asks for at most
*one* key. If more are needed, it then silently does nothing. The
user has to type "cont" once per encrypted image:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none -monitor stdio -drive if=none,file=geheim.qcow2 -drive if=none,file=geheim.qcow2
QEMU 2.2.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info status
VM status: paused (prelaunch)
(qemu) c
none0 (geheim.qcow2) is encrypted.
Password: ******
(qemu) info status
VM status: paused (prelaunch)
(qemu) c
none1 (geheim.qcow2) is encrypted.
Password: ******
(qemu) info status
VM status: running
== Incorrect passwords not caught ==
All existing encryption schemes give you the GIGO treatment: garbage
password in, garbage data out. Guests usually refuse to mount
garbage, but other usage is prone to data loss.
== Need to stop the guest to add an encrypted image ==
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none -monitor stdio
QEMU 2.2.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info status
VM status: running
(qemu) drive_add "" if=none,file=geheim.qcow2
Guest must be stopped for opening of encrypted image
(qemu) stop
(qemu) drive_add "" if=none,file=geheim.qcow2
OK
Commit c3adb58 added this restriction. Before, we could expose images
lacking an encryption key to guests, with potentially catastrophic
results. See also "Use without key is not always caught".
= Bugs =
== Use without key is not always caught ==
Encrypted images can be in an intermediate state "opened, but no key".
The weird startup behavior and the need to stop the guest are there to
ensure the guest isn't exposed to that state. But other things still
are!
* drive_backup
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none -monitor stdio geheim.qcow2
QEMU 2.2.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) drive_backup -f ide0-hd0 out.img raw
Formatting 'out.img', fmt=raw size=4194304
I guess this writes encrypted data to raw image out.img. Good luck
with figuring out how to decrypt that again.
* commit
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none -monitor stdio geheim.qcow2
QEMU 2.2.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) commit ide0-hd0
I guess this writes encrypted data into the unencrypted raw backing
image, effectively destroying it.
== QMP device_add of usb-storage fails when it shouldn't ==
When the image is encrypted, device_add creates the device, defers
actually attaching it to when the key becomes available, then fails.
This is wrong. device_add must either create the device and succeed,
or do nothing and fail.
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none -usb -qmp stdio -drive if=none,id=foo,file=geheim.qcow2
{"QMP": {"version": {"qemu": {"micro": 50, "minor": 2, "major": 2}, "package": ""}, "capabilities": []}}
{ "execute": "qmp_capabilities" }
{"return": {}}
{ "execute": "device_add", "arguments": { "driver": "usb-storage", "id": "bar", "drive": "foo" } }
{"error": {"class": "DeviceEncrypted", "desc": "'foo' (geheim.qcow2) is encrypted"}}
{"execute":"device_del","arguments": { "id": "bar" } }
{"timestamp": {"seconds": 1426003440, "microseconds": 237181}, "event": "DEVICE_DELETED", "data": {"path": "/machine/peripheral/bar/bar.0/legacy[0]"}}

{"return": {}}
This stuff is worse than useless, it's a trap for users.
If people become sufficiently interested in encrypted images to
contribute a cryptographically sane implementation for QCOW2 (or
whatever other format), then rewriting the necessary support around it
from scratch will likely be easier and yield better results than
fixing up the existing mess.
Let's deprecate the mess now, drop it after a grace period, and move
on.

Opening an encrypted image takes an additional step: setting the key.
Between open and the key set, the image must not be used.
We have some protection against accidental use in place: you can't
unpause a guest while we're missing keys. You can, however, hot-plug
block devices lacking keys into a running guest just fine, or insert
media lacking keys. In the latter case, notifying the guest of the
insert is delayed until the key is set, which may suffice to protect
at least some guests in common usage.
This patch makes the protection apply in more cases, in a rather
heavy-handed way: it doesn't let you open encrypted images unless
we're in a paused state.
It doesn't extend the protection to users other than the guest (block
jobs?). Use of runstate_check() from block.c is disgusting. Best I
can do right now.
