Yes, this is a libvirt bug. And your analysis is coorect. The problem is:
1) in virLXCControllerSetupHostdevSubsysUSB the first part of path is
constructed: vroot = /var/run/libvirt/lxc/lxc_0.dev/bus/usb
2) then, virSecurityManagerSetHostdevLabel() is called, which
subsequently calls virSecuritySELinuxSetHostdevSubsysLabel().
3) The SELinuxSetHostdevSubsysLabel() calls virUSBDeviceNew(..,vroot)
where vroot is the path from step 1). The virUSBDeviceNew then does:
if (virAsprintf(&dev->path, "%s" USB_DEVFS "%03d/%03d",
vroot ? vroot : "",
dev->bus, dev->dev) < 0) {
virUSBDeviceFree(dev);
return NULL;
}
where USB_DEVFS is defined as:
# define USB_DEVFS "/dev/bus/usb/"
So in the end, dev->path contains the path that you're seeing. I think
this the fix:
diff --git a/src/util/virusb.c b/src/util/virusb.c
index 6359235ff..99ee08657 100644

+ (!vroot && virAsprintf(&dev->path, USB_DEVFS "%03d/%03d", dev->bus, dev->dev) < 0)) {
virUSBDeviceFree(dev);
return NULL;
}
(of course after breaking down the long lines). Can you please test it?
