Up until this point, we have avoided setting labels for incoming migration when the TPM state is stored on a shared filesystem. This seems to make sense, because since the underlying storage is shared surely the labels will be as well. There's one problem, though: when a guest is migrated, the SELinux context for the destination process is different from the one of the source process. We haven't hit any issues with the current approach so far because NFS doesn't support SELinux, so effectively it doesn't matter whether relabeling happens or not: even if the SELinux contexts of the source and target processes are different, both will be able to access the storage. Now that it's possible for the local admin to manually mark exported directories as shared filesystems, however, things can get problematic. Consider the case in which one host (mig-one) exports its local filesystem /srv/nfs/libvirt/swtpm via NFS, and at the same time bind-mounts it to /var/lib/libvirt/swtpm; another host (mig-two) mounts the same filesystem to the same location, this time via NFS. Additionally, in order to allow migration in both directions, on mig-one the /var/lib/libvirt/swtpm directory is listed in the shared_filesystems qemu.conf option. When migrating from mig-one to mig-two, things work just fine; going in the opposite direction, however, results in an error: # virsh migrate cirros qemu+ssh://mig-one/system error: internal error: QEMU unexpectedly closed the monitor (vm='cirros'): qemu-system-x86_64: tpm-emulator: Setting the stateblob (type 1) failed with a TPM error 0x1f qemu-system-x86_64: error while loading state for instance 0x0 of device 'tpm-emulator' qemu-system-x86_64: load of migration failed: Input/output error This is because the directory on mig-one is considered a shared filesystem and thus labeling is skipped, resulting in a SELinux denial. The solution is quite simple: remove the check and always relabel. We know that it's okay to do so not just because it makes the error seen above go away, but also because no such check currently exists for disks and other types of persistent storage such as NVRAM files, which always get relabeled.
