@c man begin SYNOPSIS
-usage: qemu [options] [disk_image]
+usage: qemu [options] [@var{disk_image}]
@c man end
@end example
@c man begin OPTIONS
-@var{disk_image} is a raw hard disk image for IDE hard disk 0.
-
-General options:
-@table @option
-@item -M machine
-Select the emulated machine (@code{-M ?} for list)
-
-@item -fda file
-@item -fdb file
-Use @var{file} as floppy disk 0/1 image (@pxref{disk_images}). You can
-use the host floppy by using @file{/dev/fd0} as filename (@pxref{host_drives}).
-
-@item -hda file
-@item -hdb file
-@item -hdc file
-@item -hdd file
-Use @var{file} as hard disk 0, 1, 2 or 3 image (@pxref{disk_images}).
-
-@item -cdrom file
-Use @var{file} as CD-ROM image (you cannot use @option{-hdc} and and
-@option{-cdrom} at the same time). You can use the host CD-ROM by
-using @file{/dev/cdrom} as filename (@pxref{host_drives}).
-
-@item -boot [a|c|d|n]
-Boot on floppy (a), hard disk (c), CD-ROM (d), or Etherboot (n). Hard disk boot
-is the default.
-
-@item -snapshot
-Write to temporary files instead of disk image files. In this case,
-the raw disk image you use is not written back. You can however force
-the write back by pressing @key{C-a s} (@pxref{disk_images}).
-
-@item -no-fd-bootchk
-Disable boot signature checking for floppy disks in Bochs BIOS. It may
-be needed to boot from old floppy disks.
-
-@item -m megs
-Set virtual RAM size to @var{megs} megabytes. Default is 128 MB.
-
-@item -smp n
-Simulate an SMP system with @var{n} CPUs. On the PC target, up to 255
-CPUs are supported.
-
-@item -nographic
-
-Normally, QEMU uses SDL to display the VGA output. With this option,
-you can totally disable graphical output so that QEMU is a simple
-command line application. The emulated serial port is redirected on
-the console. Therefore, you can still use QEMU to debug a Linux kernel
-with a serial console.
-
-@item -no-frame
-
-Do not use decorations for SDL windows and start them using the whole
-available screen space. This makes the using QEMU in a dedicated desktop
-workspace more convenient.
-
-@item -vnc display
-
-Normally, QEMU uses SDL to display the VGA output. With this option,
-you can have QEMU listen on VNC display @var{display} and redirect the VGA
-display over the VNC session. It is very useful to enable the usb
-tablet device when using this option (option @option{-usbdevice
-tablet}). When using the VNC display, you must use the @option{-k}
-option to set the keyboard layout if you are not using en-us.
-
-@var{display} may be in the form @var{interface:d}, in which case connections
-will only be allowed from @var{interface} on display @var{d}. Optionally,
-@var{interface} can be omitted. @var{display} can also be in the form
-@var{unix:path} where @var{path} is the location of a unix socket to listen for
-connections on.
-
-
-@item -k language
-
-Use keyboard layout @var{language} (for example @code{fr} for
-French). This option is only needed where it is not easy to get raw PC
-keycodes (e.g. on Macs, with some X11 servers or with a VNC
-display). You don't normally need to use it on PC/Linux or PC/Windows
-hosts.
-
-The available layouts are:
-@example
-ar de-ch es fo fr-ca hu ja mk no pt-br sv
-da en-gb et fr fr-ch is lt nl pl ru th
-de en-us fi fr-be hr it lv nl-be pt sl tr
-@end example
-
-The default is @code{en-us}.
-
-@item -audio-help
-
-Will show the audio subsystem help: list of drivers, tunable
-parameters.
-
-@item -soundhw card1,card2,... or -soundhw all
-
-Enable audio and selected sound hardware. Use ? to print all
-available sound hardware.
-
-@example
-qemu -soundhw sb16,adlib hda
-qemu -soundhw es1370 hda
-qemu -soundhw all hda
-qemu -soundhw ?
-@end example
-
-@item -localtime
-Set the real time clock to local time (the default is to UTC
-time). This option is needed to have correct date in MS-DOS or
-Windows.
-
-@item -full-screen
-Start in full screen.
-
-@item -pidfile file
-Store the QEMU process PID in @var{file}. It is useful if you launch QEMU
-from a script.
-
-@item -daemonize
-Daemonize the QEMU process after initialization. QEMU will not detach from
-standard IO until it is ready to receive connections on any of its devices.
-This option is a useful way for external programs to launch QEMU without having
-to cope with initialization race conditions.
-
-@item -win2k-hack
-Use it when installing Windows 2000 to avoid a disk full bug. After
-Windows 2000 is installed, you no longer need this option (this option
-slows down the IDE transfers).
-
-@item -option-rom file
-Load the contents of file as an option ROM. This option is useful to load
-things like EtherBoot.
-
-@item -name string
-Sets the name of the guest. This name will be display in the SDL window
-caption. The name will also be used for the VNC server.
-
-@end table
-
-USB options:
-@table @option
-
-@item -usb
-Enable the USB driver (will be the default soon)
-
-@item -usbdevice devname
-Add the USB device @var{devname}. @xref{usb_devices}.
-@end table
-
-Network options:
-
-@table @option
-
-@item -net nic[,vlan=n][,macaddr=addr][,model=type]
-Create a new Network Interface Card and connect it to VLAN @var{n} (@var{n}
-= 0 is the default). The NIC is an ne2k_pci by default on the PC
-target. Optionally, the MAC address can be changed. If no
-@option{-net} option is specified, a single NIC is created.
-Qemu can emulate several different models of network card.
-Valid values for @var{type} are
-@code{i82551}, @code{i82557b}, @code{i82559er},
-@code{ne2k_pci}, @code{ne2k_isa}, @code{pcnet}, @code{rtl8139},
-@code{smc91c111}, @code{lance} and @code{mcf_fec}.
-Not all devices are supported on all targets. Use -net nic,model=?
-for a list of available devices for your target.
-
-@item -net user[,vlan=n][,hostname=name]
-Use the user mode network stack which requires no administrator
-privilege to run. @option{hostname=name} can be used to specify the client
-hostname reported by the builtin DHCP server.
-
-@item -net tap[,vlan=n][,fd=h][,ifname=name][,script=file]
-Connect the host TAP network interface @var{name} to VLAN @var{n} and
-use the network script @var{file} to configure it. The default
-network script is @file{/etc/qemu-ifup}. Use @option{script=no} to
-disable script execution. If @var{name} is not
-provided, the OS automatically provides one. @option{fd=h} can be
-used to specify the handle of an already opened host TAP interface. Example:
-
-@example
-qemu linux.img -net nic -net tap
-@end example
-
-More complicated example (two NICs, each one connected to a TAP device)
-@example
-qemu linux.img -net nic,vlan=0 -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0 \
- -net nic,vlan=1 -net tap,vlan=1,ifname=tap1
-@end example
-
-
-@item -net socket[,vlan=n][,fd=h][,listen=[host]:port][,connect=host:port]
-
-Connect the VLAN @var{n} to a remote VLAN in another QEMU virtual
-machine using a TCP socket connection. If @option{listen} is
-specified, QEMU waits for incoming connections on @var{port}
-(@var{host} is optional). @option{connect} is used to connect to
-another QEMU instance using the @option{listen} option. @option{fd=h}
-specifies an already opened TCP socket.
-
-Example:
-@example
-# launch a first QEMU instance
-qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \
- -net socket,listen=:1234
-# connect the VLAN 0 of this instance to the VLAN 0
-# of the first instance
-qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:57 \
- -net socket,connect=127.0.0.1:1234
-@end example
-
-@item -net socket[,vlan=n][,fd=h][,mcast=maddr:port]
-
-Create a VLAN @var{n} shared with another QEMU virtual
-machines using a UDP multicast socket, effectively making a bus for
-every QEMU with same multicast address @var{maddr} and @var{port}.
-NOTES:
-@enumerate
-@item
-Several QEMU can be running on different hosts and share same bus (assuming
-correct multicast setup for these hosts).
-@item
-mcast support is compatible with User Mode Linux (argument @option{eth@var{N}=mcast}), see
-@url{http://user-mode-linux.sf.net}.
-@item
-Use @option{fd=h} to specify an already opened UDP multicast socket.
-@end enumerate
-
-Example:
-@example
-# launch one QEMU instance
-qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \
- -net socket,mcast=230.0.0.1:1234
-# launch another QEMU instance on same "bus"
-qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:57 \
- -net socket,mcast=230.0.0.1:1234
-# launch yet another QEMU instance on same "bus"
-qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:58 \
- -net socket,mcast=230.0.0.1:1234
-@end example
-
-Example (User Mode Linux compat.):
-@example
-# launch QEMU instance (note mcast address selected
-# is UML's default)
-qemu linux.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \
- -net socket,mcast=239.192.168.1:1102
-# launch UML
-/path/to/linux ubd0=/path/to/root_fs eth0=mcast
-@end example
-
-@item -net none
-Indicate that no network devices should be configured. It is used to
-override the default configuration (@option{-net nic -net user}) which
-is activated if no @option{-net} options are provided.
-
-@item -tftp dir
-When using the user mode network stack, activate a built-in TFTP
-server. The files in @var{dir} will be exposed as the root of a TFTP server.
-The TFTP client on the guest must be configured in binary mode (use the command
-@code{bin} of the Unix TFTP client). The host IP address on the guest is as
-usual 10.0.2.2.
-
-@item -bootp file
-When using the user mode network stack, broadcast @var{file} as the BOOTP
-filename. In conjunction with @option{-tftp}, this can be used to network boot
-a guest from a local directory.
-
-Example (using pxelinux):
-@example
-qemu -hda linux.img -boot n -tftp /path/to/tftp/files -bootp /pxelinux.0
-@end example
-
-@item -smb dir
-When using the user mode network stack, activate a built-in SMB
-server so that Windows OSes can access to the host files in @file{dir}
-transparently.
-
-In the guest Windows OS, the line:
-@example
-10.0.2.4 smbserver
-@end example
-must be added in the file @file{C:\WINDOWS\LMHOSTS} (for windows 9x/Me)
-or @file{C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\LMHOSTS} (Windows NT/2000).
-
-Then @file{dir} can be accessed in @file{\\smbserver\qemu}.
-
-Note that a SAMBA server must be installed on the host OS in
-@file{/usr/sbin/smbd}. QEMU was tested successfully with smbd version
-2.2.7a from the Red Hat 9 and version 3.0.10-1.fc3 from Fedora Core 3.
-
-@item -redir [tcp|udp]:host-port:[guest-host]:guest-port
-
-When using the user mode network stack, redirect incoming TCP or UDP
-connections to the host port @var{host-port} to the guest
-@var{guest-host} on guest port @var{guest-port}. If @var{guest-host}
-is not specified, its value is 10.0.2.15 (default address given by the
-built-in DHCP server).
-
-For example, to redirect host X11 connection from screen 1 to guest
-screen 0, use the following:
-
-@example
-# on the host
-qemu -redir tcp:6001::6000 [...]
-# this host xterm should open in the guest X11 server
-xterm -display :1
-@end example
-
-To redirect telnet connections from host port 5555 to telnet port on
-the guest, use the following:
-
-@example
-# on the host
-qemu -redir tcp:5555::23 [...]
-telnet localhost 5555
-@end example
-
-Then when you use on the host @code{telnet localhost 5555}, you
-connect to the guest telnet server.
-
-@end table
-
-Linux boot specific: When using these options, you can use a given
-Linux kernel without installing it in the disk image. It can be useful
-for easier testing of various kernels.
+@var{disk_image} is a raw hard disk image for IDE hard disk 0. Some
+targets do not need a disk image.
-@table @option
-
-@item -kernel bzImage
-Use @var{bzImage} as kernel image.
-
-@item -append cmdline
-Use @var{cmdline} as kernel command line
-
-@item -initrd file
-Use @var{file} as initial ram disk.
-
-@end table
-
-Debug/Expert options:
-@table @option
-
-@item -serial dev
-Redirect the virtual serial port to host character device
-@var{dev}. The default device is @code{vc} in graphical mode and
-@code{stdio} in non graphical mode.
-
-This option can be used several times to simulate up to 4 serials
-ports.
-
-Use @code{-serial none} to disable all serial ports.
-
-Available character devices are:
-@table @code
-@item vc
-Virtual console
-@item pty
-[Linux only] Pseudo TTY (a new PTY is automatically allocated)
-@item none
-No device is allocated.
-@item null
-void device
-@item /dev/XXX
-[Linux only] Use host tty, e.g. @file{/dev/ttyS0}. The host serial port
-parameters are set according to the emulated ones.
-@item /dev/parportN
-[Linux only, parallel port only] Use host parallel port
-@var{N}. Currently SPP and EPP parallel port features can be used.
-@item file:filename
-Write output to filename. No character can be read.
-@item stdio
-[Unix only] standard input/output
-@item pipe:filename
-name pipe @var{filename}
-@item COMn
-[Windows only] Use host serial port @var{n}
-@item udp:[remote_host]:remote_port[@@[src_ip]:src_port]
-This implements UDP Net Console. When @var{remote_host} or @var{src_ip} are not specified they default to @code{0.0.0.0}. When not using a specified @var{src_port} a random port is automatically chosen.
-
-If you just want a simple readonly console you can use @code{netcat} or
-@code{nc}, by starting qemu with: @code{-serial udp::4555} and nc as:
-@code{nc -u -l -p 4555}. Any time qemu writes something to that port it
-will appear in the netconsole session.
-
-If you plan to send characters back via netconsole or you want to stop
-and start qemu a lot of times, you should have qemu use the same
-source port each time by using something like @code{-serial
-udp::4555@@:4556} to qemu. Another approach is to use a patched
-version of netcat which can listen to a TCP port and send and receive
-characters via udp. If you have a patched version of netcat which
-activates telnet remote echo and single char transfer, then you can
-use the following options to step up a netcat redirector to allow
-telnet on port 5555 to access the qemu port.
-@table @code
-@item Qemu Options:
--serial udp::4555@@:4556
-@item netcat options:
--u -P 4555 -L 0.0.0.0:4556 -t -p 5555 -I -T
-@item telnet options:
-localhost 5555
-@end table
-
-
-@item tcp:[host]:port[,server][,nowait][,nodelay]
-The TCP Net Console has two modes of operation. It can send the serial
-I/O to a location or wait for a connection from a location. By default
-the TCP Net Console is sent to @var{host} at the @var{port}. If you use
-the @var{server} option QEMU will wait for a client socket application
-to connect to the port before continuing, unless the @code{nowait}
-option was specified. The @code{nodelay} option disables the Nagle buffering
-algorithm. If @var{host} is omitted, 0.0.0.0 is assumed. Only
-one TCP connection at a time is accepted. You can use @code{telnet} to
-connect to the corresponding character device.
-@table @code
-@item Example to send tcp console to 192.168.0.2 port 4444
--serial tcp:192.168.0.2:4444
-@item Example to listen and wait on port 4444 for connection
--serial tcp::4444,server
-@item Example to not wait and listen on ip 192.168.0.100 port 4444
--serial tcp:192.168.0.100:4444,server,nowait
-@end table
-
-@item telnet:host:port[,server][,nowait][,nodelay]
-The telnet protocol is used instead of raw tcp sockets. The options
-work the same as if you had specified @code{-serial tcp}. The
-difference is that the port acts like a telnet server or client using
-telnet option negotiation. This will also allow you to send the
-MAGIC_SYSRQ sequence if you use a telnet that supports sending the break
-sequence. Typically in unix telnet you do it with Control-] and then
-type "send break" followed by pressing the enter key.
-
-@item unix:path[,server][,nowait]
-A unix domain socket is used instead of a tcp socket. The option works the
-same as if you had specified @code{-serial tcp} except the unix domain socket
-@var{path} is used for connections.
-
-@item mon:dev_string
-This is a special option to allow the monitor to be multiplexed onto
-another serial port. The monitor is accessed with key sequence of
-@key{Control-a} and then pressing @key{c}. See monitor access
-@ref{pcsys_keys} in the -nographic section for more keys.
-@var{dev_string} should be any one of the serial devices specified
-above. An example to multiplex the monitor onto a telnet server
-listening on port 4444 would be:
-@table @code
-@item -serial mon:telnet::4444,server,nowait
-@end table
-
-@end table
-
-@item -parallel dev
-Redirect the virtual parallel port to host device @var{dev} (same
-devices as the serial port). On Linux hosts, @file{/dev/parportN} can
-be used to use hardware devices connected on the corresponding host
-parallel port.
-
-This option can be used several times to simulate up to 3 parallel
-ports.
-
-Use @code{-parallel none} to disable all parallel ports.
-
-@item -monitor dev
-Redirect the monitor to host device @var{dev} (same devices as the
-serial port).
-The default device is @code{vc} in graphical mode and @code{stdio} in
-non graphical mode.
-
-@item -echr numeric_ascii_value
-Change the escape character used for switching to the monitor when using
-monitor and serial sharing. The default is @code{0x01} when using the
-@code{-nographic} option. @code{0x01} is equal to pressing
-@code{Control-a}. You can select a different character from the ascii
-control keys where 1 through 26 map to Control-a through Control-z. For
-instance you could use the either of the following to change the escape
-character to Control-t.
-@table @code
-@item -echr 0x14
-@item -echr 20
-@end table
-
-@item -s
-Wait gdb connection to port 1234 (@pxref{gdb_usage}).
-@item -p port
-Change gdb connection port. @var{port} can be either a decimal number
-to specify a TCP port, or a host device (same devices as the serial port).
-@item -S
-Do not start CPU at startup (you must type 'c' in the monitor).
-@item -d
-Output log in /tmp/qemu.log
-@item -hdachs c,h,s,[,t]
-Force hard disk 0 physical geometry (1 <= @var{c} <= 16383, 1 <=
-@var{h} <= 16, 1 <= @var{s} <= 63) and optionally force the BIOS
-translation mode (@var{t}=none, lba or auto). Usually QEMU can guess
-all those parameters. This option is useful for old MS-DOS disk
-images.
-
-@item -L path
-Set the directory for the BIOS, VGA BIOS and keymaps.
-
-@item -std-vga
-Simulate a standard VGA card with Bochs VBE extensions (default is
-Cirrus Logic GD5446 PCI VGA). If your guest OS supports the VESA 2.0
-VBE extensions (e.g. Windows XP) and if you want to use high
-resolution modes (>= 1280x1024x16) then you should use this option.

+@node vnc_sec_none
+@subsection Without passwords
+
+The simplest VNC server setup does not include any form of authentication.
+For this setup it is recommended to restrict it to listen on a UNIX domain
+socket only. For example
+
+@example
+qemu [...OPTIONS...] -vnc unix:/home/joebloggs/.qemu-myvm-vnc
+@end example
+
+This ensures that only users on local box with read/write access to that
+path can access the VNC server. To securely access the VNC server from a
+remote machine, a combination of netcat+ssh can be used to provide a secure
+tunnel.
+
+@node vnc_sec_password
+@subsection With passwords
+
+The VNC protocol has limited support for password based authentication. Since
+the protocol limits passwords to 8 characters it should not be considered
+to provide high security. The password can be fairly easily brute-forced by
+a client making repeat connections. For this reason, a VNC server using password
+authentication should be restricted to only listen on the loopback interface
+or UNIX domain sockets. Password authentication is requested with the @code{password}
+option, and then once QEMU is running the password is set with the monitor. Until
+the monitor is used to set the password all clients will be rejected.
+
+@example
+qemu [...OPTIONS...] -vnc :1,password -monitor stdio
+(qemu) change vnc password
+Password: ********
+(qemu)
+@end example
+
+@node vnc_sec_certificate
+@subsection With x509 certificates
+
+The QEMU VNC server also implements the VeNCrypt extension allowing use of
+TLS for encryption of the session, and x509 certificates for authentication.
+The use of x509 certificates is strongly recommended, because TLS on its
+own is susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks. Basic x509 certificate
+support provides a secure session, but no authentication. This allows any
+client to connect, and provides an encrypted session.
+
+@example
+qemu [...OPTIONS...] -vnc :1,tls,x509=/etc/pki/qemu -monitor stdio
+@end example
+
+In the above example @code{/etc/pki/qemu} should contain at least three files,
+@code{ca-cert.pem}, @code{server-cert.pem} and @code{server-key.pem}. Unprivileged
+users will want to use a private directory, for example @code{$HOME/.pki/qemu}.
+NB the @code{server-key.pem} file should be protected with file mode 0600 to
+only be readable by the user owning it.
+
+@node vnc_sec_certificate_verify
+@subsection With x509 certificates and client verification
+
+Certificates can also provide a means to authenticate the client connecting.
+The server will request that the client provide a certificate, which it will
+then validate against the CA certificate. This is a good choice if deploying
+in an environment with a private internal certificate authority.
+
+@example
+qemu [...OPTIONS...] -vnc :1,tls,x509verify=/etc/pki/qemu -monitor stdio
+@end example
+
+
+@node vnc_sec_certificate_pw
+@subsection With x509 certificates, client verification and passwords
+
+Finally, the previous method can be combined with VNC password authentication
+to provide two layers of authentication for clients.
+
+@example
+qemu [...OPTIONS...] -vnc :1,password,tls,x509verify=/etc/pki/qemu -monitor stdio
+(qemu) change vnc password
+Password: ********
+(qemu)
+@end example
+
+
+@node vnc_sec_sasl
+@subsection With SASL authentication
+
+The SASL authentication method is a VNC extension, that provides an
+easily extendable, pluggable authentication method. This allows for
+integration with a wide range of authentication mechanisms, such as
+PAM, GSSAPI/Kerberos, LDAP, SQL databases, one-time keys and more.
+The strength of the authentication depends on the exact mechanism
+configured. If the chosen mechanism also provides a SSF layer, then
+it will encrypt the datastream as well.
+
+Refer to the later docs on how to choose the exact SASL mechanism
+used for authentication, but assuming use of one supporting SSF,
+then QEMU can be launched with:
+
+@example
+qemu [...OPTIONS...] -vnc :1,sasl -monitor stdio
+@end example
+
+@node vnc_sec_certificate_sasl
+@subsection With x509 certificates and SASL authentication
+
+If the desired SASL authentication mechanism does not supported
+SSF layers, then it is strongly advised to run it in combination
+with TLS and x509 certificates. This provides securely encrypted
+data stream, avoiding risk of compromising of the security
+credentials. This can be enabled, by combining the 'sasl' option
+with the aforementioned TLS + x509 options:
+
+@example
+qemu [...OPTIONS...] -vnc :1,tls,x509,sasl -monitor stdio
+@end example
+
+
+@node vnc_generate_cert
+@subsection Generating certificates for VNC
+
+The GNU TLS packages provides a command called @code{certtool} which can
+be used to generate certificates and keys in PEM format. At a minimum it
+is neccessary to setup a certificate authority, and issue certificates to
+each server. If using certificates for authentication, then each client
+will also need to be issued a certificate. The recommendation is for the
+server to keep its certificates in either @code{/etc/pki/qemu} or for
+unprivileged users in @code{$HOME/.pki/qemu}.
+
+@menu
+* vnc_generate_ca::
+* vnc_generate_server::
+* vnc_generate_client::
+@end menu
+@node vnc_generate_ca
+@subsubsection Setup the Certificate Authority
+
+This step only needs to be performed once per organization / organizational
+unit. First the CA needs a private key. This key must be kept VERY secret
+and secure. If this key is compromised the entire trust chain of the certificates
+issued with it is lost.
+
+@example
+# certtool --generate-privkey > ca-key.pem
+@end example
+
+A CA needs to have a public certificate. For simplicity it can be a self-signed
+certificate, or one issue by a commercial certificate issuing authority. To
+generate a self-signed certificate requires one core piece of information, the
+name of the organization.
+
+@example
+# cat > ca.info <<EOF
+cn = Name of your organization
+ca
+cert_signing_key
+EOF
+# certtool --generate-self-signed \
+ --load-privkey ca-key.pem
+ --template ca.info \
+ --outfile ca-cert.pem
+@end example
+
+The @code{ca-cert.pem} file should be copied to all servers and clients wishing to utilize
+TLS support in the VNC server. The @code{ca-key.pem} must not be disclosed/copied at all.
+
+@node vnc_generate_server
+@subsubsection Issuing server certificates
+
+Each server (or host) needs to be issued with a key and certificate. When connecting
+the certificate is sent to the client which validates it against the CA certificate.
+The core piece of information for a server certificate is the hostname. This should
+be the fully qualified hostname that the client will connect with, since the client
+will typically also verify the hostname in the certificate. On the host holding the
+secure CA private key:
+
+@example
+# cat > server.info <<EOF
+organization = Name of your organization
+cn = server.foo.example.com
+tls_www_server
+encryption_key
+signing_key
+EOF
+# certtool --generate-privkey > server-key.pem
+# certtool --generate-certificate \
+ --load-ca-certificate ca-cert.pem \
+ --load-ca-privkey ca-key.pem \
+ --load-privkey server server-key.pem \
+ --template server.info \
+ --outfile server-cert.pem
+@end example
+
+The @code{server-key.pem} and @code{server-cert.pem} files should now be securely copied
+to the server for which they were generated. The @code{server-key.pem} is security
+sensitive and should be kept protected with file mode 0600 to prevent disclosure.
+
+@node vnc_generate_client
+@subsubsection Issuing client certificates
+
+If the QEMU VNC server is to use the @code{x509verify} option to validate client
+certificates as its authentication mechanism, each client also needs to be issued
+a certificate. The client certificate contains enough metadata to uniquely identify
+the client, typically organization, state, city, building, etc. On the host holding
+the secure CA private key:
+
+@example
+# cat > client.info <<EOF
+country = GB
+state = London
+locality = London
+organiazation = Name of your organization
+cn = client.foo.example.com
+tls_www_client
+encryption_key
+signing_key
+EOF
+# certtool --generate-privkey > client-key.pem
+# certtool --generate-certificate \
+ --load-ca-certificate ca-cert.pem \
+ --load-ca-privkey ca-key.pem \
+ --load-privkey client-key.pem \
+ --template client.info \
+ --outfile client-cert.pem
+@end example
+
+The @code{client-key.pem} and @code{client-cert.pem} files should now be securely
+copied to the client for which they were generated.
+
+
+@node vnc_setup_sasl
+
+@subsection Configuring SASL mechanisms
+
+The following documentation assumes use of the Cyrus SASL implementation on a
+Linux host, but the principals should apply to any other SASL impl. When SASL
+is enabled, the mechanism configuration will be loaded from system default
+SASL service config /etc/sasl2/qemu.conf. If running QEMU as an
+unprivileged user, an environment variable SASL_CONF_PATH can be used
+to make it search alternate locations for the service config.
+
+The default configuration might contain
+
+@example
+mech_list: digest-md5
+sasldb_path: /etc/qemu/passwd.db
+@end example
+
+This says to use the 'Digest MD5' mechanism, which is similar to the HTTP
+Digest-MD5 mechanism. The list of valid usernames & passwords is maintained
+in the /etc/qemu/passwd.db file, and can be updated using the saslpasswd2
+command. While this mechanism is easy to configure and use, it is not
+considered secure by modern standards, so only suitable for developers /
+ad-hoc testing.
+
+A more serious deployment might use Kerberos, which is done with the 'gssapi'
+mechanism
+
+@example
+mech_list: gssapi
+keytab: /etc/qemu/krb5.tab
+@end example
+
+For this to work the administrator of your KDC must generate a Kerberos
+principal for the server, with a name of 'qemu/somehost.example.com@@EXAMPLE.COM'
+replacing 'somehost.example.com' with the fully qualified host name of the
+machine running QEMU, and 'EXAMPLE.COM' with the Keberos Realm.
+
+Other configurations will be left as an exercise for the reader. It should
+be noted that only Digest-MD5 and GSSAPI provides a SSF layer for data
+encryption. For all other mechanisms, VNC should always be configured to
+use TLS and x509 certificates to protect security credentials from snooping.

@node gdb_usage
@section GDB usage
@code{x/10i $cs*16+$eip} to dump the code at the PC position.
@end enumerate
+Advanced debugging options:
+
+The default single stepping behavior is step with the IRQs and timer service routines off. It is set this way because when gdb executes a single step it expects to advance beyond the current instruction. With the IRQs and and timer service routines on, a single step might jump into the one of the interrupt or exception vectors instead of executing the current instruction. This means you may hit the same breakpoint a number of times before executing the instruction gdb wants to have executed. Because there are rare circumstances where you want to single step into an interrupt vector the behavior can be controlled from GDB. There are three commands you can query and set the single step behavior:
+@table @code
+@item maintenance packet qqemu.sstepbits
+
+This will display the MASK bits used to control the single stepping IE:
+@example
+(gdb) maintenance packet qqemu.sstepbits
+sending: "qqemu.sstepbits"
+received: "ENABLE=1,NOIRQ=2,NOTIMER=4"
+@end example
+@item maintenance packet qqemu.sstep
+
+This will display the current value of the mask used when single stepping IE:
+@example
+(gdb) maintenance packet qqemu.sstep
+sending: "qqemu.sstep"
+received: "0x7"
+@end example
+@item maintenance packet Qqemu.sstep=HEX_VALUE
+
+This will change the single step mask, so if wanted to enable IRQs on the single step, but not timers, you would use:
+@example
+(gdb) maintenance packet Qqemu.sstep=0x5
+sending: "qemu.sstep=0x5"
+received: "OK"

-@subsection GCC version
-
-In order to compile QEMU successfully, it is very important that you
-have the right tools. The most important one is gcc. On most hosts and
-in particular on x86 ones, @emph{gcc 4.x is not supported}. If your
-Linux distribution includes a gcc 4.x compiler, you can usually
-install an older version (it is invoked by @code{gcc32} or
-@code{gcc34}). The QEMU configure script automatically probes for
-these older versions so that usually you don't have to do anything.
