Attempting to create a domain with <seclabel type='none'/> results in

With <seclabel type='none'/>, the model field of virSecurityLabelDef will
be NULL, causing virSecurityManagerCheckModel() to fail with the above
error. Avoid calling virSecurityManagerCheckModel() when they seclabel
type is VIR_DOMAIN_SECLABEL_NONE.

This could also be fixed by checking for a NULL secmodel in
virSecurityManagerCheckModel, but it seems more appropriate to check for
a valid seclabel type before checking the model.

This doesn't look right. If type='none' then ->model should contain "none" string which in turn means virSecurityManagerCheckModel() is a NOP.

Looking into the code I've found the following in src/conf/domain_conf.c line 9239:

   /* Copy model from host. */
   VIR_DEBUG("Found seclabel without a model, using '%s'",
             xmlopt->config.defSecModel);
   def->seclabels[0]->model = g_strdup(xmlopt->config.defSecModel);

and looking around and on git blame I found the following commit: 638ffa222847acc74dd2d84d2088590ecbf8eb70 (let's not get into who reviewed it O:-)) which made ->model initialization happen only if drvier initialized xmlopt .defSecModel which is happening only in qemu driver and not LXC.

Ah, thanks for a pointer to the commit. That's a nice hint!

Therefore I think we need something like this:

diff --git i/src/lxc/lxc_conf.c w/src/lxc/lxc_conf.c
index 13da6c4586..fc26a0a38b 100644

      return virDomainXMLOptionNew(&virLXCDriverDomainDefParserConfig,

But that makes lxcxml2xmltest fail, because the output XMLs don't contain the model. I'm wondering if that's because we did not/do not pass caps with host->nsecModels > 0 and thus this autofill wasn't run but with the change I'm suggesting it is now.

I took a similar approach as the qemu driver and initialized the defSecModel from the driver's securityManager (ignoring stacked managers since afaict the lxc driver doesn't support it). With this approach lxcxml2xmltest passes and my issue is resolved :-).
