Description Jeff Raber 2011-09-13 07:07:47 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/collectd from 'getattr' accesses on the filesystem /dev/mqueue.

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

If you believe that collectd should be allowed getattr access on the mqueue filesystem 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:
# grep collectd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2011-09-13 11:50:18 UTC
Fixed in selinux-policy-3.9.16-41.fc15

Comment 2 Jeff Raber 2011-09-13 13:28:45 UTC
Hi Miroslav.  I have another 34 AVC's related to collectd, should I file them all as bugs?  Or is there a more efficient way?

Comment 3 Miroslav Grepl 2011-09-13 13:36:05 UTC
Hi Jeff,
could you attach your compressed /var/log/audit/audit.log

Comment 4 Jeff Raber 2011-09-13 19:52:42 UTC
Created attachment 522993 [details]
/var/log/audit.log, as requested

Comment 5 Jeff Raber 2011-09-29 14:39:26 UTC
Miroslav,
Any idea when selinux-policy-3.9.16-41.fc15 will be ready?  Do you think the AVC's in comment 4 will be resolved with that update as well?

collectd is triggering an AVC every few seconds.  I've been holding out on creating a custom policy (really because I've never done it before) but if you don't think that the update will be coming soon, I will create one.

Comment 6 Miroslav Grepl 2011-09-29 14:46:57 UTC
I apologize, I missed your latest comment with your audit.log. Going to look at it.
