containers - fcontext labels for bind mount volumes

hi guys.

I've just started fiddling with podman and something what I 
thought would be a well covered topic turns out to be rather 
thinly covered (unless I failed to find more).
I'm hoping someone could point to place where it's 
thoroughly covered or can shed more light on possible best 
practices for 'container volumes and host fcontext'
It's fcontext labels and security options for containers.
Maybe it's just "mariadb" which I'm trying?.. hmm..
I'm on Centos8.
Here is an example of my troublesome container:

-> $ podman run -d --restart=always --pod=nist --volume 
/srv/containers/var/lib/mysql:/var/lib/mysql --volume 
/srv/containers/etc/my.cnf.d:/etc/my.cnf.d 
--security-opt=label=disable ...

I also did:

-> $ semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/containers /srv/containers

and that's "container_var_lib_t"

I expected that would do the trick yet host's journal log is 
swarmed with:

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/mariadbd from read access on 
the file plugin.frm.

-> $ sealert -l 094ffe8a-89d5-4f7b-99fc-e7488896b255
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/mariadbd from read access on 
the file plugin.frm.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests 
**************************

If you believe that mariadbd should be allowed read access 
on the plugin.frm file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c 'mysqld' --raw | audit2allow -M my-mysqld
# semodule -X 300 -i my-mysqld.pp
