Description vikram goyal 2011-12-14 05:41:37 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/mcelog from 'getattr' accesses on the file /run/mcelog.pid.

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

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