-Subject: [PATCH] tools: libxl: Explicitly disable graphics backends on qemu
- cmdline
-
-By default qemu will try to create some sort of backend for the
-emulated VGA device, either SDL or VNC.
-
-However when the user specifies sdl=0 and vnc=0 in their configuration
-libxl was not explicitly disabling either backend, which could lead to
-one unexpectedly running.
-
-If either sdl=1 or vnc=1 is configured then both before and after this
-change only the backends which are explicitly enabled are configured,
-i.e. this issue only occurs when all backends are supposed to have
-been disabled.
-
-This affects qemu-xen and qemu-xen-traditional differently.
-
-If qemu-xen was compiled with SDL support then this would result in an
-SDL window being opened if $DISPLAY is valid, or a failure to start
-the guest if not. Passing "-display none" to qemu before any further
--sdl options disables this default behaviour and ensures that SDL is
-only started if the libxl configuration demands it.
-
-If qemu-xen was compiled without SDL support then qemu would instead
-start a VNC server listening on ::1 (IPv6 localhost) or 127.0.0.1
-(IPv4 localhost) with IPv6 preferred if available. Explicitly pass
-"-vnc none" when vnc is not enabled in the libxl configuration to
-remove this possibility.
-
-qemu-xen-traditional would never start a vnc backend unless asked.
-However by default it will start an SDL backend, the way to disable
-this is to pass a -vnc option. In other words passing "-vnc none" will
-disable both vnc and sdl by default. sdl can then be reenabled if
-configured by subsequent use of the -sdl option.
-
-Tested with both qemu-xen and qemu-xen-traditional built with SDL
-support and:
- xl cr # defaults
- xl cr sdl=0 vnc=0
- xl cr sdl=1 vnc=0
- xl cr sdl=0 vnc=1
- xl cr sdl=0 vnc=0 vga=\"none\"
- xl cr sdl=0 vnc=0 nographic=1
-with both valid and invalid $DISPLAY.
-
-This is XSA-119.
