Under SELinux, Unix domain sockets have two labels.  One is on the
disk and can be set with commands such as chcon(1).  There is a
different label stored in memory (called the process label).  This can
only be set by the process creating the socket.  When using SELinux +
SVirt and wanting qemu to be able to connect to a qemu-nbd instance,
you must set both labels correctly first.

For qemu-nbd the options to set the second label are awkward.  You can
create the socket in a wrapper program and then exec into qemu-nbd.
Or you could try something with LD_PRELOAD.

This commit adds the ability to set the label straightforwardly on the
command line, via the new --selinux-label flag.  (The name of the flag
is the same as the equivalent nbdkit option.)

A worked example showing how to use the new option can be found in
this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1984938

this should be Reviewed-by?

Maybe, because of this:

I got confused with this v3.

Yes, I'd somehow lost the original patch and picked it up from Eric's
queue to make v3.

Than it's probably correct. Still a bit strange to send own patch with another 
s-o-b in the end.


Having said that I'm not sure what the objection above means.  Do you
mean Eric's tag should be Reviewed-by instead of S-o-b?  (And why?)


I thought you just accidentally used s-o-b instead of r-b.
