Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2014-03-07 22:33:51 UTC
Sure what does guest file access mean?  What files does it have to read? Write?

Comment 3 Miroslav Grepl 2014-09-18 14:19:48 UTC
We have

manage_files_pattern(virt_qemu_ga_t, virt_qemu_ga_data_t, virt_qemu_ga_data_t)
manage_dirs_pattern(virt_qemu_ga_t, virt_qemu_ga_data_t, virt_qemu_ga_data_t)

for this purpose. 

Do you want to have virt_qemu_ga_read_data and virt_qemu_ga_manage_data boolean?

Comment 4 Amos Kong 2014-09-18 17:30:34 UTC
Yes.

    Add virt_read_qemu_ga_data/virt_rw_qemu_ga_data booleans to allow acces qemu-ga data only with these booleans.
