RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description yanbing du 2013-04-22 04:07:03 UTC 
Description of problem:
Config libvirtd log_level=1, and set lable for a guest with static type 
<seclabel>, and relabel='no', when start the guest, error/debug messages 
throw out.
If set log_level=3, then this bug gone.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-1.0.4-1.el7.x86_64
libvirt-0.10.2-18.el6_4.4.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Config libvirtd log level:

log_level = 1
log_outputs="1:file:/var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log"

2. Make sure selinux is enforcing.
3. Config the <seclabel> element, and start it.
......
   <seclabel type='static' model='selinux' relabel='ynoes'>
     <label>system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c392,c662</label>
   </seclabel>

    qemu: Ignore libvirt logs when reading QEMU error output
    
    When QEMU fails to start, libvirt read its error output and reports it
    back in an error message. However, when libvirtd is configured to log
    debug messages, one would get the following unhelpful garbage:
    
        virsh # start cd

    qemu: Move QEMU log reading into a separate function
Comment 3 zhenfeng wang 2013-05-07 09:04:44 UTC 
Verify this bug with :
libvirt-1.0.5-1.el7.x86_64
1. Config libvirtd log level:

log_level = 1
log_outputs="1:file:/var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log"

2. Make sure selinux is enforcing.
3. Config the <seclabel> element, and start it.
......
   <seclabel type='static' model='selinux' relabel='no'>
     <label>system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c392,c662</label>
   </seclabel>
......
4. start the guest on rhel7 host,got the expect error as comment 2
# virsh start rhelguest1
error: Failed to start domain rhelguest1
error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: char device redirected to /dev/pts/1 (label charserial0)
qemu-kvm: -drive file=/var/lib/libvirt/images/kvm-rhel6.4.z-x86_64-qcow2.img,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=qcow2,cache=none: could not open disk image /var/lib/libvirt/images/kvm-rhel6.4.z-x86_64-qcow2.img: Permission denied

since we got the expect error which is the same with comment 2 ,so mark this bug verified
