Maybe we can get something explicit out of qemu like 'execmem failed' or something, that might lead people to think selinux. *** Bug 753589 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This is indeed a very obscure error message. I just confirmed that it still affects Rawhide. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora19 Actually rawhide doesn't seem to be affected by this anymore, I have virt_use_execmem=off and no selinux warnings starting arm guests, so closing The reason you don't see this is that we added a new 'svirt_tcg_t' domain type for TCG mode, which allows execmem. Libvirt will thus do the right thing. If you query the live XML you ought to see this svirt_tcg_t in use. |
