Description Brian Vaughan 2015-06-05 02:43:52 UTC
Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing nm-dispatcher from using the 'signull' accesses on a process.

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

If you believe that nm-dispatcher should be allowed signull access on processes labeled dnssec_trigger_t 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:
# grep nm-dispatcher /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Description of problem:
NetworkManager dispatcher obviously uses this signal to check if the process is still running.

I thought the issue is that NM is not allowed to send the signal to dnssec_trigger_t. Based on the comment, the fix may be wrong.
