I wonder if it really belongs to kvm group, -- maybe a separate "vhost_net" group should be used instead. Yes it can only be used with qemu/kvm currently, but maybe some other tool will use it in the future, and looking at how many security issues /dev/kvm access had, maybe vhost_net shold be restricted more...
How other distributions are doing this? I'm not sure we want to introduce our own naming here... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/891625 Title: [qemu-kvm] add vhost-net to kvm group udev rules 65-kvm.rules Status in QEMU: New Bug description: Please consider authorizing the kvm group to access vhost-net device, similar to the kvm device.
