Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/bluetoothd "read" access to device rfcomm0.

Detailed Description:

SELinux has denied bluetoothd "read" access to device rfcomm0. rfcomm0 is
mislabeled, this device has the default label of the /dev directory, which
should not happen. All Character and/or Block Devices should have a label. You
can attempt to change the label of the file using restorecon -v 'rfcomm0'. If
this device remains labeled device_t, then this is a bug in SELinux policy.
Please file a bg report. If you look at the other similar devices labels, ls -lZ
/dev/SIMILAR, and find a type that would work for rfcomm0, you can use chcon -t
SIMILAR_TYPE 'rfcomm0', If this fixes the problem, you can make this permanent
by executing semanage fcontext -a -t SIMILAR_TYPE 'rfcomm0' If the restorecon
changes the context, this indicates that the application that created the
device, created it without using SELinux APIs. If you can figure out which
application created the device, please file a bug report against this
application.

Allowing Access:

Attempt restorecon -v 'rfcomm0' or chcon -t SIMILAR_TYPE 'rfcomm0'

If you look at the device is it labelled device_t?

ls -lZ /dev/rfcomm0

there is no bluetoothd file or folder inside sbin then ls shows
[kannan@sam210 ~]$ ls -lZ /dev/rfcomm0
crw-rw----. root dialout system_u:object_r:tty_device_t:s0 /dev/rfcomm0

sir i am new to linux and liked its engneering so brifly explain what to do

Comment 3 Miroslav Grepl 2010-06-23 11:34:02 UTC
I just wanted to know what SELinux security context has /dev/rfcomm00 device. 

ls -Z  ... this option will show SELinux security context
