Not considering sub filesystem has the following limitation. Support for SELinux in FUSE is dependent on the particular userspace filesystem, which is identified by the subtype. For e.g, GlusterFS, a FUSE based filesystem supports SELinux (by mounting and processing FUSE requests in different threads, avoiding the mount time deadlock), whereas other FUSE based filesystems (identified by a different subtype) have the mount time deadlock. By considering the subtype of the filesytem in the SELinux policies, allows us to specify a filesystem subtype, in the following way: fs_use_xattr fuse.glusterfs gen_context(system_u:object_r:fs_t,s0); This way not all FUSE filesystems are put in the same bucket and subjected to the limitations of the other subtypes.
