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. - -Reported-by: Sander Eikelenboom <linux@eikelenboom.it> -Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com> -Acked-by: Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@eu.citrix.com> ---- - tools/libxl/libxl_dm.c | 21 +++++++++++++++++++-- - 1 file changed, 19 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) - -diff --git a/tools/libxl/libxl_dm.c b/tools/libxl/libxl_dm.c -index 8599a6a..3b918c6 100644 ---- a/tools/libxl/libxl_dm.c -+++ b/tools/libxl/libxl_dm.c -@@ -180,7 +180,14 @@ static char ** libxl__build_device_model_args_old(libxl__gc *gc, - if (libxl_defbool_val(vnc->findunused)) { - flexarray_append(dm_args, "-vncunused"); - } -- } -+ } else -+ /* -+ * VNC is not enabled by default by qemu-xen-traditional, -+ * however passing -vnc none causes SDL to not be -+ * (unexpectedly) enabled by default.
