KVM
General
What is KVM?
For an openly developed, FOSS GPL licensed hypervisor, it is recommended you use KVM [Kernel Virtual Machine] that comes with the GNU/Linux OS. KVM combined with the VirtualMachineManager front-end should provide a familiar and intuitive, easy to use GUI.
For a detailed view on its security merits read the report issued by an independent security auditing firm: http://www.atsec.com/downloads/white-papers/kvm_security_comparison.pdf![]()
A supported platform that can run Whonix. There are also others.
Why Use KVM Over VirtualBox?
Recently, the VirtualBox developer team have taken the decision to switch out the BIOS in their hypervisor with one that requires compilation by a toolchain that does not meet the definition of Free Software as per the guidelines of the Free Software Foundation. This move has been deemed problematic for free and open source software projects like Debian, on which Whonix is based. https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Dev/Virtualization_Platform#VirtualBox_no_longer_in_Debian_mai![]()
...
The issues of the Open Watcom License are explained in this thread on the Debian Mailinglist: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-legal@lists.debian.org/msg34687.html![]()
and can be summarized as issues surrounding the contradictory language of the license, the assertion of patents against software that relies on it and the placing of certain restrictions on uses of the software.
For those who care about running Free Software and appreciate its ethical views, it is recommended that you avoid running VirtualBox, for that reason alone if nothing else.
Besides this licensing issue which may or may not be of concern to users, a more tangible reason can be the security practices of Oracle, the corporation behind VirtualBox. Recent events and news (see Snowden leaks) have shown the urgent need for increased transparency and trust in the digital world. Oracle is infamous for their lack of transparency in disclosing security bugs details and for discouraging public full disclosure by third parties.

... << Oracle calls it "responsible disclosure" which is actually security through obscurity. Not going public with a vulnerability and its details only leads to laziness and complacency on part of the company that fields the affected products.

![]()
<< A 0day reported privately to Oracle in 2008 by an independent security researcher has remained unfixed as of 2012 when this post was written.
Furthermore VirtualBox contains significant functionality that is only available as a proprietary extension, such as USB and PCI passthrough and RDP connectivity. Seeing Oracle's unfriendly trackrecord with the free software community in the past; examples include OpenSolaris and OpenOffice, it would not be a stretch to imagine them charging money for the closed up features at some point in the future or simply abandoning the project if they cannot monetize it to their liking.

KVM Setup Instructions
Before installing
Refer to the Computer Security Education chapters here and apply relevant steps.
Install KVM
Debian stable
If you are using Debian stable (currently: jessie), click on expand on the right.
Update package lists.
sudo apt-get update
Install.
sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm libvirt-bin virt-manager
Other Distributions
If you are using a Linux distribution, that is not documented above, click on expand on the right.
You need to have qemu-kvm and libvirt-bin. If you want to use a graphical user interface, which you most likely want, you also need virt-manager. Likely the required software can be installed using your usual distribution's package manager.
If you get one of the following errors while later using virsh define.
error: Failed to define domain from Whonix-Gateway_kvm-8.6.2.8.xml error: internal error Unknown controller type 'pci
Whonix-Gateway_kvm-8.6.2.8.xml:24: element pm: Relax-NG validity error : Element domain has extra content: pm Whonix-Gateway_kvm-8.6.2.8.xml fails to validate
Relax-NG validity error : Extra element devices in interleave Whonix-Gateway_kvm-8.6.2.8.xml:24: element devices: Relax-NG validity error : Element domain failed to validate content Whonix-Gateway_kvm-8.6.2.8.xml fails to validate
Then you most likely need a more recent version of libvirt and kvm.
Please feel free to share detailed instructions for other distributions!
Notice
If you are running Debian Stable (Jessie) you will run into a libvirt bug that conflicts with the way it works with Apparmor and the VM will refuse to start. It was fixed upstream but it will be a while until it reaches you.
To fix it run:
sudo ln -s /etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/TEMPLATE.qemu /etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/TEMPLATE.kvm
Addgroup
In order to be able to manage virtual machines as regular (non-root) user, you need to add that user to the libvirt and the kvm group. Assuming the simple use case, that you wish to use KVM with the user you are currently logged in, and assuming you are using Debian, simply use the following command.
sudo addgroup "$(whoami)" libvirt
sudo addgroup "$(whoami)" kvm
Standard Debian
By default Debian doesn't use sudo so you can add the groups with usermod. If your user is "foo" you would do:
sudo usermod -a -G libvirt foo
And.
sudo usermod -a -G kvm foo
Other distributions
If you are using other distributions, have a look at your distribution's manual. (Such as Arch Linux's libvirt wiki page![]()
.)
Reboot
After installation of kvm, reboot is required! After adding users to groups, reboot is required!
sudo reboot
Network Start
Make sure KVM's / QEMU's default networking is enabled and started.[2] [3]
virsh -c qemu:///system net-autostart default
virsh -c qemu:///system net-start default
Download and Extract
Introduction
It is highly recommended you read and apply the steps outlined here. By applying a known and tested configuration, you will be better off in convenience and security.
Make sure you use the qcow2 images that are provided by the Whonix project instead of rolling your own. [4] They contain important performance optimizations. [5] (Unless you created them from source. [6])
If you have issues with free disk space, using a file system supporting sparse files is recommended, also see forum discussion![]()
.
Already have existing Whonix libvirt images? Consider #Cleanup first.
For simplicity, so you can copy and paste the following commands without changes, download and store Whonix's images in your home folder (/home/<your user name>).
Download Whonix
Verify the Whonix images
Template:Verify the Whonix images
Decompress
Use tar to decompress the archive.
tar -xvf Whonix-Gateway*.libvirt.xz
tar -xvf Whonix-Workstation*.libvirt.xz
Do not use unxz! Extract the images using tar.
XML Modification (OPTIONAL)
Modifying a machine's XML file gives more fine grained control over its settings than what is exposed through the virt-manager GUI. Unless you know what you are doing, editing configuration defaults is neither recommended nor necessary.
nano Whonix-Gateway*.xml
nano Whonix-Workstation*.xml
You could always edit the XML files later too, if needed as explained in the #Editing an imported Machine's XML Configuration chapter.
Importing Whonix VM Templates
The supplied XML files serve as a description for libvirt, that tell it what properties a Whonix machine and networking it should have.
1. First we will start with Whonix-Gateway:
virsh -c qemu:///system define Whonix-Gateway*.xml
2. Followed by the Whonix isolated internal network (XML also in the same folder as Whonix Gateway):
virsh -c qemu:///system net-define Whonix_network*.xml
virsh -c qemu:///system net-autostart Whonix
virsh -c qemu:///system net-start Whonix
3. Lastly the Whonix-Workstation:
virsh -c qemu:///system define Whonix-Workstation*.xml
Manipulating QCOW2 Images
To interact with KVM disk images use qemu-img. It can resize, convert virtual disks to other formats and more. Its not necessary nor recommended to change the official images so proceed only if you know what you are doing.
See the manual for more commands [7]
Moving Whonix Image Files
The XML files are configured to point to the default storage location of: /var/lib/libvirt/images These steps will show how to move the images there in order for the machines to boot.
Note: It is highly recommended you use this default path for storing the images to avoid any conflicts with AppArmor or SELinux, which will prevent the machines from booting.
It is recommended to move the image files instead of copying them:
sudo mv Whonix-Gateway*.qcow2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/Whonix-Gateway.qcow2
sudo mv Whonix-Workstation*.qcow2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/Whonix-Workstation.qcow2
Whonix disk images are sparse files, meaning they expand when filled rather than allocating their entire size, 100GB outright. These are known as sparse files and need special commands when copying them to ensure they don't lose this property, leading them to occupy all the actual space. We are copying to a privileged location in the system, so we have run with higher privileges (sudo):
sudo cp --sparse=always Whonix-Gateway*.qcow2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/Whonix-Gateway.qcow2
sudo cp --sparse=always Whonix-Workstation*.qcow2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/Whonix-Workstation.qcow2
Cleanup
After importing Whonix, you are advised to delete the archives (.libvirt.xz files) and the temporarily extracted folders or to move them into a custom location. This is useful to avoid conflicts and confusion should you later download a new version of Whonix.
To delete them.
rm Whonix-Gateway*.libvirt.xz
rm Whonix-Workstation*.libvirt.xz
rm -r Whonix-Gateway*
rm -r Whonix-Workstation*
Start
If you know Virtual Machine Manager, there is nothing special about starting Whonix VMs compared to starting other VMs. First start Whonix-Gateway, then start Whonix-Workstation.
Graphical User Interface (GUI)
Start Virtual Machine Manager.
Start Menu -> Applications -> System -> Virtual Machine Manager
Start Whonix-Gateway.
click on Whonix-Gateway -> click open -> click the play symbol
Repeat the same for Whonix-Workstation.
Command Line Interface (CLI)
Use
virsh -c qemu:///system start Whonix-Gateway
To start Whonix-gateway. Respectively
virsh -c qemu:///system start Whonix-Workstation
To start workstation
After installing
Read and apply the Post Installation Security Advice.
Uninstall
If you want to remove Whonix KVM VMs, Whonix network and Whonix images, click on Expand on the right.
1. Make sure you powered off the VM you want to shut down. You can also make sure you have shut down the VM using command line.
virsh -c qemu:///system destroy Whonix-Gateway
virsh -c qemu:///system destroy Whonix-Workstation
2. Remove KVM VM settings.
virsh -c qemu:///system undefine Whonix-Gateway
virsh -c qemu:///system undefine Whonix-Workstation
3. Shut down KVM Network Whonix.
virsh -c qemu:///system net-destroy Whonix
4. Remove Network Whonix.
virsh -c qemu:///system net-undefine Whonix
5. Delete the images. (All data will be lost unless you made a backup of your valued data.)
sudo rm /var/lib/libvirt/images/Whonix-Gateway.qcow2
sudo rm /var/lib/libvirt/images/Whonix-Workstation.qcow2
KVM Upgrade Instructions
Its highly recommended that you uninstall older Whonix versions and always run the newer one. Note that Whonix supports in-place apt-get upgrades too.
First, move your data out of the VM via shared folders and perform the cleanup steps followed by installation of the new images.
Stay tuned

Optional
Multiple side-by-side Whonix Setups
To run multiple, separate Whonix instances you will need to clone existing machines. These steps assume Whonix has already been imported.
1. Create clones of the Gateway and Workstation VMs rolled back to clean snapshots:
In Virtual Machine Manager:
Highlight VM -> Open -> Virtual Machine -> Clone... -> Clone
2. Export Whonix's internal network settings:
sudo virsh net-dumpxml Whonix > Whonix.xml
3. Edit the network configuration to make it unique. Change the name and bridge name. Delete the mac address and uuid parameters. Alternatively, replace the configuration with the example below:
<network> <name>Whonix-11</name> <bridge name='virbr2' stp='on' delay='0'/> </network>
Save and exit:
CTRL-X y CTRL-M
Note that virbr0 is assigned to the default network (NAT NIC), and virbr1 to the Whonix internal network (Whonix NIC), therefore, the network name was changed to Whonix2 and the bridge name to virbr2.
4. Import and start the new network:
virsh -c qemu:///system net-define Whonix.xml
virsh -c qemu:///system net-autostart Whonix2
virsh -c qemu:///system net-start Whonix2
5. Attach the Gateway and Workstation VM NICs to the new network. Its important you pay attention and match internal network interfaces to the newer ones and not switch to a NIC that connects outside. To edit the VM virtual NIC settings:
Highlight VM -> Open -> Settings -> NIC virtual hardware -> Set Network Source to: Virtual network 'Whonix2' : Isolated network, internal and host routing only
Note that the network is exclusively internal and does not communicate with the host in any way.
Testing Upcoming Versions
Download the test images from latest folder listed here![]()
. Apply the #Multiple_side-by-side_Whonix_Setups for running Whonix versions side by side with some differences:
1. Rename the test Whonix images to something unique, preferably by appending the version number to the name.
2. Edit the XML templates and change the VM names.
3. Import the images by following the installation steps #Importing_Whonix_VM_Templates but keep in mind you must use the full name of the new images. Do not import the Network templates.
Shared Folders
To move data between the guest and host follow these steps.
On the host.
Run the following command in terminal (Start Menu -> Applications -> System -> Terminal).
sudo mkdir /mnt/shared
You must adjust permissions on the host to allow read and write access to the folder with chmod:
sudo chmod 777 /mnt/shared
Enable shared folders in VirtManager:
VirtManager -> click once on virtual machine -> Edit -> Virtual Machine Details -> Details -> Add Hardware -> File System
Set:
Mode: Mapped [8]
Driver: Default
Source Path: /mnt/shared
Target Path: shared
Click finish. Done.
In the VM.
Run the following command in terminal (Start Menu -> Applications -> System -> Terminal).
sudo mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio shared /mnt/shared -oversion=9p2000.L
To automatically mount this every time at boot, open /etc/fstab.
If you are using a graphical virtual machine.
kdesudo kwrite /etc/fstab
Or if you are using a terminal-only virtual machine.
sudo nano /etc/fstab
Add.
shared /mnt/shared 9p trans=virtio,version=9p2000.L,rw 0 0
Save.
Note: If your system is configured to use a Mandatory Access Control framework you may need to configure exceptions to allow the confined guests to communicate with the shared folder on the host.
Tests with Apparmor has shown it to operate transparently with shared folders without needing any manual exception configuration by the user.
Applying chown to the shared folder's contents is needed however to access the files:
chown -R yourusername /mnt/shared
If you are using commandline instead of virt-manager to edit your vm's device settings, add this next section to the xml.
<filesystem type='mount' accessmode='mapped'> <source dir='/mnt/shared'/> <target dir='shared'/> </filesystem>
Editing an imported Machine's XML Configuration
Eventually configure your faviorite editor to make changes. Set visual to your favorite editor (must be installed, examples are kwrite, leafpad, kate, vi, nano, vim, etc.).
export VISUAL=kwrite
Edit.
virsh -c qemu:///system edit Whonix-Gateway
Disable Microphone Input
Microphone input to guests, while a nice feature for VoIP, is dangerous to have on by default. It is good practice to disable the microphone on your host system through sound settings if you are not actively using it.
Its not currently possible to ship a configuration file with the guest microphone input muted. If you need to have the host microphone turned on while denying access to the guest, mute the "virt-manager: record" device that shows up in the host's audio task-bar menu.
LVM as Storage
QCOW2 virtual disk images are the recommended and default storage format for KVM.
LVM or any other storage mechanism must be avoided for security and privacy.
LVM misconfiguration has serious security consequences and exposes the host filesystem to the processes running on the guest. [9]
Because a virtual disk is no longer used, where the low-level view of the storage can be controlled, data created by VMs can easily be recovered and exfiltrated by malicious forensics tools run in a VM at a later time. This is extremely dangerous and can expose all kinds of information originally created in a VM of higher trust level. This leads to deanonymization, past session linking and theft of sensitive information and keys.[10][11]
Enabling HugePages
Warning: Unless you trust the VMs it is recommended to NOT use this feature because it has been used as a cross-vm side-channel attack allowing full recovery of private keys in other VMs. This applies to all hypervisors.
Huge memory pages improve performance for some virtualized workloads such as running databases. They are not enabled by default in Linux because the amount of memory to be allocated this way depends on the different needs from one user/admin to another. [12]
On the host you need to activate the nr_hugepages setting in the proc filesystem:
{{CodeSelect|code= echo 1054 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages }
NOTE: To make the above value persistent, you'd need to set:
echo "vm.nr_hugepages=1054" > /etc/sysctl.d/50_hugepages
Then, `grep` for the HugePages_Total:
grep -i HugePages_Total /proc/meminfo
Should show.
HugePages_Total: 1054
The total system RAM allocated as hugepages can be calculated as:
2Mb * 1054 = 2108 ≈ 2GiB
Then, boot a libvirt virtual machine with 2 GB memory with appropriate XML setting as noted in the example below:
<memory unit='KiB'>2000896</memory> <currentMemory unit='KiB'>2000000</currentMemory> <memoryBacking> <hugepages> <page size='2048' unit='KiB' nodeset='0'/> </hugepages> </memoryBacking> <vcpu placement='static'>8</vcpu>
Enabling Clipboard Sharing
SPICE allows accelerated graphics and clipboard sharing. The clipboard is disabled by default for security reasons [13] but could be enabled.
When editing using xml, search for.
<clipboard copypaste='no'/>
And change to.
<clipboard copypaste='yes'/>
Creating Multiple Internal Networks
Open Whonix's network XML file and change the name attribute to something different than the internal network you are currently running, for example 'Whonix2' 'Whonix3' and so on. The default name used is 'Whonix'.
Alternative Configurations
Libvirt can support a variety of containment mechanisms. Currently supported ones are KVM on the x86_64 platform and QEMU. More configurations could be added at a later date. If you have hardware virtualization extensions, always use the KVM one.
To use another configuration, import its XML file with virsh.
How to leave KVM when no X is running
Situation... User is in terminal in a VM... No X is running ("sudo service kdm stop"). User wants to switch back to the host... How to do this?
The emulated tablet device handles this by not allowing the mouse to be captured by the guest. Its still possible though:
press Ctrl_L & Alt_L
KSM
KSM is a kernel feature that allows de-deuplication of anonymous memory pages belonging to multiple instances of the same process. Only software that is designed to explicitly take advantage of it can use it such as KVM. It is usually not enabled by default. KSM only kicks in when a certain low memory threshold is reached on the host.
Depending on your use case, enabling KSM may have privacy implications as per this research [14].
The security assumptions about virtual environments is that each vm is a completely isolated instance that knows nothing about what's happening outside it. It posses a privacy problem for an isolated multi-workstation setup.
In a single workstation-to-gateway scenario, KSM isn't problematic because technically, nothing going on, on the gateway, even if known would endanger privacy. However should someone run multiple workstation vms, each with the intent that they are all separated - each with its own internal network for isolation for example, then with KSM all similar activities or processes running in the other vms, would register to an attacker who has compromised one of them. For example, information that the same website has been visited in another vm too. This would allow cross-vm activity correlation.
Its not really a weakness unique to KSM, but a common problem shared by using the equivalent feature on other hypervisors too (Xen's TPS - Transparent Page Sharing). [15]
Quote Memory Deduplication as a Threat to the Guest OS![]()
:
4.3 Detection of Downloaded Files
The memory disclosure attack can also be applied to find an opened file on a victim’s VM. We have tried to detect a logo file when Firefox shows a home page.
We confirmed that the Google logo file was detected if page caching is enabled on Firefox. When the page cache was set to 0, detection failed. If an attacker leads a victim to a malicious home page which includes an identifiable logo file, the attacker can detect the page view from the victim’s VM.
This disclosure attack is dangerous because it detects a page view even if the network is encrypted by TLS/SSL. Especially in a multi-tenant data center, this attack is serious, because it does not violate any SLA statements on cloud computing.
Setting up gdb to work with qemu-kvm via libvirt
If you want to be able to debug a Linux kernel that’s running as a KVM guest, you need to specify the ‘-s’ parameter for the command line of qemu-kvm. The problem is, there’s no (easy) way to do this when you’re using libvirt and virt-manager to manager your virtual machines, instead of using KVM directly. What you need to do is change the XML configuration of the virtual machine so that the ‘-s’ parameter is passed on to qemu-kvm
virsh edit guestvm
Here, guestvm is the name of the VM that is managed via virt-manager. This will bring up the XML configuration of the VM in your editor. The first line of the XML file should be:
<domain type='kvm'>
This has to be changed to
<domain type='kvm' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'>
and you also need to add:
<qemu:commandline> <qemu:arg value='-s'/> </qemu:commandline>
under the <domain> level of the XML. After you save and quit the editor, the new configuration will come into effect. When you start the virtual machine, there will be a local TCP port (1234 by default) that can be used as a remote debugging port from gdb. You can connect to this port by using the command
target remote localhost:1234
from gdb running on the host machine.

Wiping the storage used by a guest domain
A volume used by a domain can contain confidential data, hence it is necessary to wipe it before removal. Libvirt offers a helping hand for such cases:
virsh vol-wipe <volume>
which truncates and extends the volume to its original size. This in fact fills the file with zeroes. This ensures that data previously stored on volume is not accessible to reads anymore. After this, you can remove volume :
virsh vol-delete <volume>

XML Settings
TODO: Soon here xml settings will be explained here.
Troubleshooting
Reboot?
Did you reboot after installing KVM?
Did you reboot after adding users to groups?
Add this information should you make a support request.
Unable to connect to libvirt.
If you are getting the following error.
Unable to connect to libvirt. Verify that the 'libvirtd' daemon is running. Libvirt URI is: qemu:///system
Make sure you added groups and rebooted.
Unable to open a connection to the libvirt management daemon.
If you are getting the following error.
Unable to open a connection to the libvirt management daemon. Libvirt URI is: qemu:///system Verify that: - The 'libvirtd' daemon has been started
Check your KVM installation.
sudo service qemu-system-x86 restart ; echo $? ; sudo service libvirt-bin restart ; echo $? ; sudo service libvirt-guests restart ; echo $?
Should show.
0 [ ok ] Restarting libvirt management daemon: /usr/sbin/libvirtd. 0 Running guests on default URI: no running guests. 0
If you see that, it could be a permissions problem.
hda-duplex not supported in this QEMU binary
Maybe you are a member of the libvirt group, but not have the lkvm group?
Maybe changing
<sound model='ich6'>
to
<sound model='ac97'>
will help.
process exited while connecting to monitor: ioctl(KVM_CREATE_VM) failed
If you get the following error.
Error starting domain: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: ioctl(KVM_CREATE_VM) failed: 16 Device or resource busy failed to initialize KVM: Device or resource busy
Maybe you have other non-KVM VMs, such as VirtualBox VMs already running? This is not possible. Running two hypervisors at the same time is not supported by KVM / VirtualBox.
Permissions
ls -la /var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock
Add Version Numbers to Support Request
Having issues, make sure you add what versions of libvirt-bin, qemu-kvm and virt-manager you are using. If you are using Debian, you can use the following command to determine them.
dpkg-query --show --showformat='${Package} ${Version} \n' libvirt-bin qemu-kvm virt-manager
