                                                         If you believe that spice-vdagent should be allowed getattr access on the vport0p2 chr_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:
                                                         # grep spice-vdagent /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
                                                         # semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2015-08-28 08:21:25 UTC
Could you attach raw AVC msg?

Comment 3 Milos Malik 2015-08-28 08:36:53 UTC
Every AVC seems to trigger it:

Comment 6 Petr Lautrbach 2015-09-11 14:16:42 UTC
This is not a blocker material for rhel-7.2 however it's quite annoying and it should be fixed. Given that setroubleshoot-plugins tends not to be included on ACLs very often I would probably propose this for rhel-7.2.z update.
