Sorry I think I misreported, it seems that this was an older report from SELinux that might've fixed itself, and I was getting new reports but didn't really understand how to use the troubleshooter. Please delete this if necessary. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 2359851 *** |
I began getting these SELinux errors (see below). Troubleshooter told me to report so I tried to report using the troubleshooter, but it seems that the troubleshooter is a bit shot, unfortunately. No matter what I did I couldn't get it to submit a report. Anyhow. I don't know where this problem came from. Might have to do with the fact that I created a swap volume in btrfs and disabled zram, might be that I set different power modes for AC and on-battery, might be the memory usage tracker I added to desktop. No idea what else it could be, apart from updates breaking something. Below is the "details" of the report from the troubleshooter, copied and pasted: SELinux is preventing tuned-ppd from create access on the file ppd_base_profile. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that tuned-ppd should be allowed create access on the ppd_base_profile 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 'tuned-ppd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-tunedppd # semodule -X 300 -i my-tunedppd.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:tuned_ppd_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:tuned_etc_t:s0 Target Objects ppd_base_profile [ file ] Source tuned-ppd Source Path tuned-ppd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-41.39-1.fc42.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-41.39-1.fc42.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux susulu 6.14.5-300.fc42.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri May 2 14:16:46 UTC 2025 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2025-05-24 13:02:37 +03 Last Seen 2025-05-24 13:02:37 +03 Local ID 818758a9-248b-446a-b8b2-e97247d506c5 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1748080957.531:9745): avc: denied { create } for pid=2239 comm="tuned-ppd" name="ppd_base_profile" scontext=system_u:system_r:tuned_ppd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:tuned_etc_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=1 Hash: tuned-ppd,tuned_ppd_t,tuned_etc_t,file,create Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: Don't know, but seems to happen after unlocking the screen, either after just locking it or when resuming from sleep. Actual Results: Got notifications from the SELinux thingy, clicking them takes me to the troubleshooter. Expected Results: No idea, either it should be configured so that it can access the file it attempts to access, or it should be patched to not try accessing that file
