Hi list,
suppose I have an immutable (ie: due to a read-only snapshot) backing file.

After creating an overlay file with "qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o
backing_file=/path/to/immutable/file.img current.qcow2", libvirt
refuse to start the virtual machine and exits with an error stating
"Could not open backing file /path/to/immutable/file.img: Permission
denied".

From my understanding, libvirtd is trying to change the
owner/permissions/selinux context of the backing file but, being it
immutable, fails to start the VM. Is that the expected behavior?

Thanks.

Hi all, any suggestion on the matter?
Thanks.
