SELinux & Xen

Hi all,
I've read this brief documentation on the fedora and RHEL5 documentation
page:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Fedora7VirtQuickStart#head-42db86c47fbb6d5abc7c6e5d931028d74d1b4102
https://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-5-manual/Virtualization-en-US/ch-virt-selinux-considerations.html

I'm understanding that this will grant access to the device to the xen
daemon (xend)

# semanage fcontext -a -t xen_image _t -f -b /dev/sda2
# restorecon /dev/sda2

But there's any way that you can be sure that a given domain can't acces
to data on a other xen guest (a diferent device) using selinux?

So, the Xen guest A could only acces to /dev/sda, and Xen guest B could
only acces to /dev/sdb but they both are using the same xend daemon.

Thank you very much!
Jordi
