[Qemu-devel] [PULL 19/19] nbd: Don't kill server on client that doesn't request TLS

[Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>]

From: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>

Upstream NBD documents (as of commit 4feebc95) that servers MAY
choose to operate in a conditional mode, where it is up to the
client whether to use TLS.  For qemu's case, we want to always be
in FORCEDTLS mode, because of the risk of man-in-the-middle
attacks, and since we never export more than one device; likewise,
the qemu client will ALWAYS send NBD_OPT_STARTTLS as its first
option.  But now that SELECTIVETLS servers exist, it is feasible
to encounter a (non-qemu) client that is programmed to talk to
such a server, and does not do NBD_OPT_STARTTLS first, but rather
wants to probe if it can use a non-encrypted export.

The NBD protocol documents that we should let such a client
continue trying, on the grounds that maybe the client will get the
hint to send NBD_OPT_STARTTLS, rather than immediately dropping
the connection.

Note that NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME is a special case: since it is the
only option request that can't have an error return, we have to
(continue to) drop the connection on that one; rather, what we are
fixing here is that all other replies prior to TLS initiation tell
the client NBD_REP_ERR_TLS_REQD, but keep the connection alive.
