yes, this is the one I meant! I couldn't remember :D

That is the correct hierarchy. An image file can either have it's own
security label, or the security label of the disk applies to all of the
chain members, if the disk doesn't have a label there is a default label
for the whole VM and in case that isn't available in case of the DAC
driver we apply the configured uid/gid.

I think it's okay to export it.

You can get the config via:

virQEMUDriverConfigPtr cfg = virQEMUDriverGetConfig(driver);

and driver via:

virQEMUDriverPtr driver = priv->driver;

and finally:

qemuDomainObjPrivatePtr priv = vm->privateData;

Since qemuDomainGetImageIds already takes vm, I'd suggest you refactor
it or add a wrapper which will not require passing of 'cfg', but will
acquire it via the above mentioned method from vm, so that we don't have
to do it in the blockjob code.
