In my spice testing,
I find user have no way to disable vnc in qemu-old and new using xl,
no matter how to set
"vnc vncunused vncpasswd vncdisplay vnclisten" in vm cfg file.

I think this may be a bug ignored.

tools/libxl/libxl__build_device_model_args_new/old: The condition is
so rigorous that user has no chance to disable the vnc,
considering what has been done in parse_config_data() by default,
which is not resonable with vnc option in vm-cfg file.

I think, If user explicitly set "vnc=0", vnc should be disabled.
User should have the chance to only use sdl, other remote
display(spice) and even nothing.

Does your patch not have the effect of turning vnc off by default ?  I
don't think that's correct.

Ian.

pls see below:
parse_config_data(...)  < xl_cmdimpl.c >
       libxl_init_dm_info(...) set dm_info->vnc = 1
       ...
       if (!xlu_cfg_get_long(config, "vnc", &l))
                dm_info->vnc = l

So, The patch will turn vnc off  by default,
Because dm_info->vnc = 1 in libxl_init_dm_info(...) turn on vnc in default,
My patch turns off vnc only when user 'set vnc = 0' explicitly in vm cfg file.

And testing in xen-unstable, it works.

Thanks,
> Ian.

So, The patch will not turn vnc off  by default. ...typo mistake :)

Reply again because I suspect I misunderstood you.
Do you mean the vnc should be turned off by default or not?

In my patch, I assume the vnc should be turned on by default.
