Some secdrivers (typically SELinux driver) generate unique dynamic seclabel for each domain (unless a static one is requested in domain XML). This is achieved by calling qemuSecurityGenLabel() from qemuProcessPrepareDomain() which allocates unique seclabel and stores it in domain def->seclabels. The counterpart is qemuSecurityReleaseLabel() which releases the label and removes it from def->seclabels. Problem is, that with current code the qemuProcessStop() may still want to use the seclabel after it was released, e.g. when it wants to restore the label of a disk mirror. What is happening now, is that in qemuProcessStop() the qemuSecurityReleaseLabel() is called, which removes the SELinux seclabel from def->seclabels, yada yada yada and eventually qemuSecurityRestoreImageLabel() is called. This bubbles down to virSecuritySELinuxRestoreImageLabelSingle() which find no SELinux seclabel (using virDomainDefGetSecurityLabelDef()) and this returns early doing nothing.

Libvirt API for virtualization
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
