Ubuntu normally uses AppArmor, not SELinux. Again, libvirt is set up to use AppArmor by default when that is the distro's preferred security mechanism, but I'm not much of an Ubuntu user, so you may get better answers from others. > I want to use SELinux labeling with dynamic type for my lxc which is > started by libvirt API. > > I don't know whether SELinux support is compiled in the ubuntu release. Probably not, for the same reason that AppArmor support is not compiled into Fedora releases. > How can I recognize whether SELinux is compiled in libvirt of a release > version? virsh --version=long On my machine, I see (among others): Miscellaneous: Daemon Nodedev SELinux Secrets Debug DTrace Readline Modular I'd expect AppArmor instead of SELinux on a debian-based build. > If compiled, which configure need to be set to enable SELinux driver for > libvirt? Configure probes for things and makes reasonable defaults; but if you want to enforce the issue, then use './configure --with-selinux=yes --with-secdriver-selinux=yes' to make configure forcefully error out if the dependencies aren't met, rather than silently omitting the dependency. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
