https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1589115 When doing a memory snapshot qemuOpenFile() is used. This means that the file where memory is saved is firstly attempted to be created under root:root (because that's what libvirtd is running under) and if this fails the second attempt is done under domain's uid:gid. This does not make much sense - qemu is given opened FD so it does not need to access the file. Moreover, if dynamicOwnership is set in qemu.conf and the file lives on a squashed NFS this is deadly combination and very likely to fail. The fix consists of using: qemuOpenFileAs(fallback_uid = cfg->user, fallback_gid = cfg->group, dynamicOwnership = false) In other words, dynamicOwnership is turned off for memory snapshot (chown() will still be attempted if the file does not live on NFS) and instead of using domain DAC label, configured user:group is set as fallback.
