The restorecon inside the guest will attempt to read
/etc/selinux/context/POLICYTYPE/files/file_context If it exists.
- From restorecons point of view does this file exists? And is it in the container.
Also restorecon will only work if it thinks SELinux is enabled and the kernel
undestands the labels. If from the restorecon point of view SELinux is not
enabled or /proc/fs/selinux points to the hosts /proc/fs/selinux then there is
a chance that the host will reject labels in the guest.
If you want to fix labels in a guest where the process thinks SELinux is
disabled, then setfiles would be a better tool.
