Description Bloom Perez 2025-04-10 20:51:47 UTC
Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing tuned-ppd from 'watch_reads' accesses on the directory /sys/firmware/acpi.

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

If you believe that tuned-ppd should be allowed watch_reads access on the acpi directory 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 'tuned-ppd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-tunedppd
# semodule -X 300 -i my-tunedppd.pp
