I'd word this as

  Dynamically allocate an SELinux label, using the default
  base context. The default base context is .... for LXC,
  ..... for KVM and .... for QEMU.

The defaults are seen here

        else if (gvir_config_domain_get_virt_type(domain) ==
                 GVIR_CONFIG_DOMAIN_VIRT_LXC)
            gvir_config_domain_seclabel_set_baselabel(sec, "system_u:system_r:svirt_lxc_net_t:s0");
        else if (gvir_config_domain_get_virt_type(domain) ==
                 GVIR_CONFIG_DOMAIN_VIRT_QEMU)
            gvir_config_domain_seclabel_set_baselabel(sec, "system_u:system_r:svirt_tcg_t:s0");
        else if (gvir_config_domain_get_virt_type(domain) ==
                 GVIR_CONFIG_DOMAIN_VIRT_KVM)
            gvir_config_domain_seclabel_set_baselabel(sec, "system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0");

I'd simplify this to

 Dynamically allocate an SELinux label, using the base
 context USER:ROLE:TYPE:LEVEL, instead of the default
 base context.
