5.20. libvirt

Problem Description: The libvirt library is a C API for managing and interacting with the virtualization capabilities of Linux and other operating systems. In addition, libvirt provides tools for remotely managing virtualized systems.
  • Volumes created using the libvirt storage API may not have an SELinux label that allows access by virtual machines. If an SELinux AVC denial is reported when starting a Xen or KVM guest, the adminstrator should either manually relabel the file/device, or add the file path(s) as rule to the SELinux policy using the 'semanage' tool. (BZ#510143)
