Ugh... I'm also trying to speed learn an area of the code and review at the same time. If I go back to commit id 'f8b08d0e' where the original implementation to add labels for chardevs was done (but has been modified for patch 1 to change where the label is stored), I get the impression that a label should be added either from something specifically supplied for the <chardev> or to use the per domain one: "The source element may contain an optional seclabel to override the way that labelling is done on the socket path. If this element is not present, the security label is inherited from the per-domain setting." So if I look at the condition "(!chr_seclabel && chardevStdioLogd)" added by this patch to decide whether or not to supply the label, I'm left with the impression that if for this particular chardev a label doesn't exist *and* the configuration option chardevStdioLogd is true, then we're going to return happy status *and* not inherit the per-domain setting. So the bug is then that applying the default domain label for a chardev configured to use a stdio handle is incorrect? Perhaps I didn't get that from reading bz or the patch. >> IIUC, whether or not someone set the label for the chardev, for this >> particular issue/config where the chardev has a <log file=$path>, we >> don't want to set (or restore) the label.

I kept scrolling back and forth in the bz and the docs, but missed this in the bz: 3) Check the virtlogd.log: error : virRotatingFileWriterEntryNew:113 : Unable to open file: /var/log/libvirt/qemu/log: Permission denied I guess I got lost in the power of suggestion of reading the docs regarding the "optional log file" that can be associated paragraph and trying to learn on the fly so that you at least get a review in a somewhat timely manner ;-) >> Wouldn't these changes end up selecting "any" chardev if >> chardevStdioLogd ended up being set regardless of whether they were >> actually using the log file? > > I don't know what you mean by this sentence? > Well let's see, chardevStdioLogd is set to true when meeting the two conditions a qemu.conf global "cfg->stdioLogd" && a per domain or emulator image capability "QEMU_CAPS_CHARDEV_FILE_APPEND". So, conceivably chardevStdioLogd could be true for *any* domain as long as those conditions are met, right? If you have a domain that has chardev's which are not configured to use the stdio handler, then the chardevStdioLogd could still be true, right? If that's the case and the chardev doesn't have a label associated, then we just return happy status and we do not inherit the per domain setting. Wouldn't that be incorrect? My concern is more we're making a change in a (mostly) common set of functions for a (very) specific problem. >> As an aside, I think there's an "oddity" when it comes to the Restore, >> but I'm not sure how to put it into words exactly.

Reading the bz indicates the 'virtlogd' daemon restarting... This is where all this gets a bit "odd" for me. Like I said it was a weird thing to even try and explain, but I think you talked me off the ledge of concern.
