Description Dave Jones 2009-04-03 00:31:39 UTC
This fail is almost comedic..

type=AVC msg=audit(1238718282.630:12255): avc:  denied  { execmem } for  pid=8305 comm="setroubleshootd" scontext=system_u:system_r:setroubleshootd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:setroubleshootd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=process

This AVC triggers setroubleshoot to then start up, and oops.. Another AVC, which causes...

Comment 1 Dave Jones 2009-04-03 00:55:21 UTC
there's a gazillion msgs in dmesg like ..

setroubleshootd[8604] general protection ip:7f024265790d sp:7fff4ab85c00 error:0 in libpython2.6.so.1.0[7f02425be000+169000]

which is likely related.

Comment 2 Dave Jones 2009-04-04 21:05:17 UTC
haven't seen this happen since I did a complete relabel.

red herring?

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2009-04-06 12:47:53 UTC
There were other problems causing the libpython crash (libselinux) and the execmem (nss).

So both should be fixed in rawhide.
