systemd tries to create /dev/pts directly with its context type
"devpts_t", but this is not allowed:
avc: denied { associate } for pid=1 comm="systemd" name="pts"
scontext=system_u:object_r:devpts_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:device_t
tclass=filesystem permissive=1
This patch doesn't do everything that is needed to have systemd-nspawn work.
But it does everything that is needed and which I have written in a clear and
uncontroversial way. I think it's best to get this upstream now and then
either have a separate discussion about the more difficult issues, or wait
until I devise a way of solving those problems that's not too hacky.
Who knows, maybe someone else will devise a brilliant solution to the remaining
issues after this is accepted upstream.
Also there's a tiny patch for systemd_machined_t that is required by
systemd_nspawn_t.

Associate the new xattrfs attribute to fs_t and the pseudo filesystems
that we know support xattr
This patch adds the attribute to the following (pseudo) filesystems
- device_t
- devpts_t
- fs_t
- hugetlbfs
- sysfs_t
- tmpfs_t
Also known as 'vmchannel', a transport mechanism is needed for
communication between the host userspace and guest userspace for
achieving things like making clipboard copy/paste work seamlessly across
the host and guest, locking the guest screen in case the vnc session to
the guest is closed and so on. This can be used in offline cases as
well, for example with libguestfs to probe which file systems the guest
uses, the apps installed, etc.
Virtio-serial is just the transport protocol that will enable such
applications to be written. It has two parts: (a) device emulation in
qemu that presents a virtio-pci device to the guest and (b) a guest
driver that presents a char device interface to userspace applications.
