Description Michal Jaegermann 2016-11-27 21:16:32 UTC
Description of problem:

So far I collected 122 alerts of that kind on a laptop which occasionally is used pretty intensively but it also has a prolonged periods when it is not powered on at all:

SELinux is preventing chronyd from sendto access on the unix_dgram_socket /run/chrony/chronyc.783.sock.

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

If you believe that chronyd should be allowed sendto access on the chronyc.783.sock unix_dgram_socket 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 'chronyd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-chronyd
# semodule -X 300 -i my-chronyd.pp

Comment 1 Lukas Vrabec 2016-11-28 09:06:13 UTC
If I remember correctly, this was fixed in chronyd. But I don't know if it was backported to F23

Comment 2 Miroslav Lichvar 2016-11-28 09:19:29 UTC
That was bug #1350815 and it wasn't fixed in F23 yet. We can certainly do that. I'll submit an update.
