Re: [PATCH] security: Ensure kernel/initrd exist before restoring label

When performing an install, it's common for tooling such as virt-install to remove the install kernel/initrd once they are successfully booted and the domain has been redefined to boot without them. After the installation is complete and the domain is rebooted/shutdown, the DAC and selinux security drivers attempt to restore labels on the now deleted files. It's harmles wrt functionality, but results in error messages such as Mar 08 12:40:37 virtqemud[5639]: internal error: child reported (status=125): unable to stat: /var/lib/libvirt/boot/vir> Mar 08 12:40:37 virtqemud[5639]: unable to stat: /var/lib/libvirt/boot/virtinst-yvp19moo-linux: No such file or directo> Mar 08 12:40:37 virtqemud[5639]: Unable to run security manager transaction Avoid the messages by checking if the kernel and initrd still exist before including them in the restore label transaction.
