libvirt_lxc start problem when selinux enbale

["Huang,Chaochang" <huangchaochang@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi，all：

 

         the problem came out when selinux was enforced in targeted+MCS

         I start lxc through virsh――“virsh -c lxc:/// start  instance-00004bd6”

 

1.       When selinux is Permissive，lxc start is ok

The result of “Ps auxZ” is：

We can get into the lxc through “ssh”

 

2.       When selinux is Enforcing，lxc start bad

Th result of “ps auxZ” is:

system_u:system_r:virtd_lxc_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 root 20624 0.0  0.0 47624 1244 ?  Ss   15:29   0:00 /usr/libexec/libvirt_lxc --name

                   Only /sbin/init process started, no else. This is the real problem

                   There is avc error messages in dmesg、/var/log/messages、/var/log/secure, and the same with selinux is Permissive

 

         Can anybody give some hints?

 

Here are some system information:

Kernel version	3.3.4
Libvirt version	0.9.13
Lxc guest image	Centos 6.3

 

Lxc xml info is:
