[Qemu-block] [PATCH for-2.7? v2 0/5] block: Use QemuOpts for runtime opt


From: Max Reitz
Subject: [Qemu-block] [PATCH for-2.7? v2 0/5] block: Use QemuOpts for runtime options
Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2016 14:34:52 +0200

The SSH and NBD block drivers currently directly extract their runtime
options from the options QDict they receive. This is bad practice and
can lead to segmentation faults (which, however, will always be a NULL
pointer dereference, so it should not be exploitable beyond a DoS).

This series fixes that by using QemuOpts instead (like all the other
block drivers do).

With this series applied, there are only two instances of "qdict_get"
left in block/, both of which appear to be safe.


v2:
- Patch 1: Fix leak of opts [Kevin]
- Patches 1 and 2: Use the block driver name as a prefix for
  runtime_opts [Kevin]


git-backport-diff against v1:

Key:
[----] : patches are identical
[####] : number of functional differences between upstream/downstream patch
[down] : patch is downstream-only
The flags [FC] indicate (F)unctional and (C)ontextual differences, respectively
