Description Alessio 2018-08-09 12:36:40 UTC
Description of problem:
I was using a USB to Serial adapter that suddenly stop to respond.
SELinux is preventing boltd from 'write' accesses on the sock_file socket.

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

If you believe that boltd should be allowed write access on the socket sock_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 'boltd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-boltd
# semodule -X 300 -i my-boltd.pp
