For NVMe disks we skip setting SELinux label on corresponding
VFIO group (/dev/vfio/X). This bug is the best visible with
namespaces and goes as follows:
1) libvirt assigns NVMe disk to vfio-pci driver,
2) kernel creates /dev/vfio/X node with generic device_t SELinux
label,
3) our namespace code creates the exact copy of the node in
domain's private /dev,
4) SELinux policy kicks in an changes the label on the node to
vfio_device_t (in the top most namespace),
5) libvirt tells QEMU to attach the NVMe disk, which is denied by
SELinux policy.
While one can argue that kernel should have created the
/dev/vfio/X node with the correct SELinux label from the
beginning (step 2), libvirt can't rely on that and needs to set
label on its own.
Surprisingly, I already wrote the code that aims on this specific
case (v6.0.0-rc1~241), but because of a shortcut we take earlier
it is never ran. The reason is that
virStorageSourceIsLocalStorage() considers NVMe disks as
non-local because their source is not accessible via src->path
(or even if it is, it's not a local path).
Therefore, do not exit early for NVMe disks and let the function
continue.
