https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1147057 The code for relabelling the TAP FD is there due to a race. When libvirt creates a /dev/tapN device it's labeled as 'system_u:object_r:device_t:s0' by default. Later, when udev/systemd reacts to this device, it's relabelled to the expected label 'system_u:object_r:tun_tap_device_t:s0'. Hence, we have a code that relabels the device, to cut the race down. For more info see ae368ebfcc4. But the problem is, the relabel function is called on all TUN/TAP devices. Yes, on /dev/net/tun too. This is however a special kind of device - other processes uses it too. We shouldn't touch it's label then. Ideally, there would an API in SELinux that would label just the passed FD and not the underlying path. That way, we wouldn't need to care as we would be not labeling /dev/net/tun but the FD passed to the domain. Unfortunately, there's no such API so we have to workaround until then.
