Description of problem:
Hi
My laptop is lenovo thinkbook 14 g6+ and it has automatic screen brightness sensor and gnome desktop environment supports it was enable in fedora 40  when i upgrade to fedora 41 it disabled, but i enabled it manually and selinux preventing it, i created this rule:
# ausearch -c 'iio-sensor-prox' --raw | audit2allow -M my-iiosensorprox
# semodule -X 300 -i my-iiosensorprox.pp
but it still prevents it.
just with disabling the selinux fixes it.
SELinux is preventing iio-sensor-prox from 'write' accesses on the sock_file socket.

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

If you believe that iio-sensor-prox 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 'iio-sensor-prox' --raw | audit2allow -M my-iiosensorprox
# semodule -X 300 -i my-iiosensorprox.pp
