Although your use case is for devices, it probably makes more sense to push this up into the Object base class. I think it will need to be a tri-state value too, not a simple bool. It isn't feasible to mark all devices with this property, so initially we'll have no information about whether most devices are secure or insecure. This patch gives the implication that all devices are secure, except for the few that have been marked otherwise, which is not a good default IMHO. We want to be able to make it clear when introspecting, that we have no information on security available for most devices ie - unset => no information on security (the current default) - true => considered secure against malicious guest - false => considered insecure against malicious guest Then we can also extend 'ObjectTypeInfo' to have a '*secure': 'bool' to make 'qom-list-types' be able to introspect this upfront. > diff --git a/hw/core/qdev.c b/hw/core/qdev.c > index cefc5eaa0a9..a5a00f3564c 100644 > --- a/hw/core/qdev.c > +++ b/hw/core/qdev.c > @@ -31,6 +31,7 @@ > #include "qapi/qmp/qerror.h" > #include "qapi/visitor.h" > #include "qemu/error-report.h" > +#include "qemu-common.h" > #include "qemu/option.h" > #include "hw/hotplug.h" > #include "hw/irq.h" > @@ -257,6 +258,13 @@ bool qdev_hotplug_allowed(DeviceState *dev, Error **errp) > MachineClass *mc; > Object *m_obj = qdev_get_machine(); > > + if (qemu_security_policy_is_strict() > + && DEVICE_GET_CLASS(dev)->taints_security_policy) { > + error_setg(errp, "Device '%s' can not be hotplugged when" > + " 'strict' security policy is in place", > + object_get_typename(OBJECT(dev))); Do you need a 'return' here to stop execution after reportig the error ? > + } > + > if (object_dynamic_cast(m_obj, TYPE_MACHINE)) { > machine = MACHINE(m_obj); > mc = MACHINE_GET_CLASS(machine); > @@ -385,6 +393,9 @@ bool qdev_realize(DeviceState *dev, BusState *bus, Error > **errp) > } else { > assert(!DEVICE_GET_CLASS(dev)->bus_type); > } > + qemu_security_policy_taint(DEVICE_GET_CLASS(dev)->taints_security_policy, > + "device type %s", > + object_get_typename(OBJECT(dev))); > > return object_property_set_bool(OBJECT(dev), "realized", true, errp); > } > -- > 2.31.1 > Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
