Description Mark Walker 2009-10-03 00:41:10 UTC
Description of problem:
SELinux consistently blocks qemu in virt-manager from running image, even after fixes applied multiple times.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu-system-x86-0.10.6-5.fc11
selinux-policy-3.6.12-83.fc11

How reproducible:
Start virtual machine.  Watch hang on boot from virtual hard drive.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Virtual Machine Manager 0.7.0
2. Select VM to run
3. Run VM
  
Actual results:
VM hangs at "Booting from Hard Disk..."
Multiple AVC errors occur

Expected results:
VM to run as installed

Additional info:

Fix command does not help.

Summary:

SELinux prevented qemu from using the terminal 1.

Detailed Description:

SELinux prevented qemu from using the terminal 1. In most cases daemons do not
need to interact with the terminal, usually these avc messages can be ignored.
All of the confined daemons should have dontaudit rules around using the
terminal. Please file a bug report
(http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi) against this selinux-policy.
If you would like to allow all daemons to interact with the terminal, you can
turn on the allow_daemons_use_tty boolean.

Allowing Access:

Changing the "allow_daemons_use_tty" boolean to true will allow this access:
"setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tty=1."

Fix Command:

setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tty=1
