The DAC driver is missing parsing of group and user names for DAC labels
and currently just parses uid and gid. This patch extends it to support
names, so the following security label definition is now valid:
<seclabel type='static' model='dac' relabel='yes'>
<label>qemu:qemu</label>
<imagelabel>qemu:qemu</imagelabel>
</seclabel>
When it tries to parse an owner or a group, it first tries to resolve it as
a name, if it fails or it's an invalid user/group name then it tries to
parse it as an UID or GID. A leading '+' can also be used for both owner and
group to force it to be parsed as IDs, so the following example is also
valid:
<seclabel type='static' model='dac' relabel='yes'>
<label>+101:+101</label>
<imagelabel>+101:+101</imagelabel>
</seclabel>
This ensures that UID 101 and GUI 101 will be used instead of an user or
group named "101".
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
