      virtio-rng: Add rate limiting options for virtio-RNG · 32bd699f
      Peter Krempa 提交于
      Qemu's implementation of virtio RNG supports rate limiting of the
      entropy used. This patch exposes the option to tune this functionality.
      
      This patch is based on qemu commit 904d6f588063fb5ad2b61998acdf1e73fb4
      
      The rate limiting is exported in the XML as:
      <devices>
        ...
        <rng model='virtio'>
          <rate bytes='123' period='1234'/>
          <backend model='random'/>
        </rng>
        ...

      rng: restrict passthrough names to known-good files · 4932ef45
      Eric Blake 提交于
      There is some controversy[1] on the qemu list on whether qemu should
      have ever allowed arbitrary file name passthrough, or whether it
      should be restricted to JUST /dev/random and /dev/hwrng.  It is
      always easier to add support for additional filenames than it is
      to remove support for something once released, so this patch
      restricts libvirt 1.0.3 (where the virtio-random backend was first
      supported) to just the two uncontroversial names, letting us defer
      to a later date any decision on whether supporting arbitrary files
      makes sense. Additionally, since qemu 1.4 does NOT support
      /dev/fdset/nnn fd passthrough for the backend, limiting to just
      two known names means that we don't get tempted to try fd
      passthrough where it won't work.
