By enhancing the LUKS driver, it is possible to enable the detachable LUKS header and, as a result, achieve general encryption for any disk format that QEMU has supported.
Take the qcow2 as an example, the usage of the generic LUKS encryption as follows: 1. add a protocol blockdev node of data disk $ virsh qemu-monitor-command vm '{"execute":"blockdev-add", > "arguments":{"node-name":"libvirt-1-storage", "driver":"file", > "filename":"/path/to/test_disk.qcow2"}}' 2. add a protocol blockdev node of LUKS header as above. $ virsh qemu-monitor-command vm '{"execute":"blockdev-add", > "arguments":{"node-name":"libvirt-2-storage", "driver":"file", > "filename": "/path/to/cipher.gluks" }}' 3. add the secret for decrypting the cipher stored in LUKS header above $ virsh qemu-monitor-command vm '{"execute":"object-add", > "arguments":{"qom-type":"secret", "id": > "libvirt-2-storage-secret0", "data":"abc123"}}' 4. add the qcow2-drived blockdev format node $ virsh qemu-monitor-command vm '{"execute":"blockdev-add", > "arguments":{"node-name":"libvirt-1-format", "driver":"qcow2", > "file":"libvirt-1-storage"}}' 5. add the luks-drived blockdev to link the qcow2 disk with LUKS header by specifying the field "header" $ virsh qemu-monitor-command vm '{"execute":"blockdev-add", > "arguments":{"node-name":"libvirt-2-format", "driver":"luks", > "file":"libvirt-1-format", "header":"libvirt-2-storage", > "key-secret":"libvirt-2-format-secret0"}}' 6. add the virtio-blk device finally $ virsh qemu-monitor-command vm '{"execute":"device_add", > "arguments": {"num-queues":"1", "driver":"virtio-blk-pci", > "drive": "libvirt-2-format", "id":"virtio-disk2"}}' The generic LUKS encryption method of starting a virtual machine (VM) is somewhat similar to hot-plug in that both maintaining the same json command while the starting VM changes the "blockdev-add/device_add" parameters to "blockdev/device".
