Trying to pass a SCSI device from the host to a VM with this XML definition:

  <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi' managed='no' sgio='filtered' rawio='no'>
    <source>
      <adapter name='scsi_host2'/>
      <address bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
    </source>
    <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
  </hostdev>

Results in Apparmor denials like this during the VM startup:

apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="libvirt-65e0d1b9-f6b1-4926-8648-dc685778555a" name="/dev/sg2" pid=7904 comm="qemu-system-x86" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=111 ouid=111
apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="libvirt-65e0d1b9-f6b1-4926-8648-dc685778555a" name="/dev/sg2" pid=7904 comm="qemu-system-x86" requested_mask="wr" denied_mask="wr" fsuid=111 ouid=111

Workaround: add "owner /dev/sg2 rw," to /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/libvirt-qemu
