Description of problem: coreutils-5.0-30.sel.src.rpm enables SELINUX by default, but if kernel does not support it, this kind of things happen: touch /tmp/empty mv /tmp/empty /usr mv: cannot lgetfilecon `/tmp/empty': Operation not supported Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: every time you run mv without SELINUX-support with conditions defined below. Steps to Reproduce: 1. run kernel with SELINUX disabled 2. touch /tmp/empty 3. mv /tmp/empty /usr (assumption: tmp and usr are on different partitions) Actual results: mv fails to check if SELINUX is enabled when moving files across devices also, cp.c does not check if WITH_SELINUX is defined in function decode_preserve_arg when accessing preserve_security_context, resulting in compilation failure when you set WITH_SELINUX to 0 in coreutils.spec. Expected results: check if SELINUX is enabled and do not try to copy the context if SELINUX is not enabled it could warn about it like copy -Z Additional info: "make check" for coreutils / mv make[3]: Entering directory `/var/rpmbuild/BUILD/coreutils-5.0/tests/mv' PASS: hard-3 PASS: hard-2 PASS: perm-1 PASS: i-link-no PASS: part-fail PASS: dup-source PASS: childproof PASS: i-4 PASS: update mv: cannot lgetfilecon `mv-null': Operation not supported mv: cannot lgetfilecon `mv-dir': Operation not supported ls: /home/rpmbuild/df-10853/mv-null: No such file or directory out2 exp differ: char 5, line 1 FAIL: mv-special-1 PASS: into-self mv: cannot lgetfilecon `/home/rpmbuild/df-10906/file': Operation not supported FAIL: into-self-2 PASS: into-self-3 PASS: into-self-4 PASS: backup-is-src PASS: i-1 mv: cannot lgetfilecon `hlink': Operation not supported ls: /home/rpmbuild/df-10999/hlink: No such file or directory FAIL: hard-link-1 PASS: force mv: cannot lgetfilecon `file': Operation not supported ls: /home/rpmbuild/df-11043/file: No such file or directory FAIL: partition-perm mv: cannot lgetfilecon `to-sym-11075': Operation not supported FAIL: to-symlink PASS: dir-file PASS: diag *** expected-11133 Wed Nov 19 00:34:41 2003 --- actual-11133 Wed Nov 19 00:34:41 2003 *************** *** 30,44 **** 0 cp -bd rem_reg loc_sl (loc_sl loc_sl~ -> rem_reg) (rem_reg) 1 cp -d rem_reg loc_sl [cp: `rem_reg' and `loc_sl' are the same file ](loc_sl -> rem_reg) (rem_reg) ! 0 mv loc_reg rem_sl () (rem_sl) ! 0 mv -b loc_reg rem_sl () (rem_sl rem_sl~ -> dir/loc_reg) 1 mv rem_sl loc_reg [mv: `rem_sl' and `loc_reg' are the same file ](loc_reg) (rem_sl -> dir/loc_reg) ! 0 mv -b rem_sl loc_reg (loc_reg -> dir/loc_reg loc_reg~) () 1 mv loc_sl rem_reg [mv: `loc_sl' and `rem_reg' are the same file ](loc_sl -> rem_reg) (rem_reg) ! 0 mv -b loc_sl rem_reg () (rem_reg -> rem_reg rem_reg~) ! 0 mv rem_reg loc_sl (loc_sl) () ! 0 mv -b rem_reg loc_sl (loc_sl loc_sl~ -> rem_reg) () --- 30,45 ---- 0 cp -bd rem_reg loc_sl (loc_sl loc_sl~ -> rem_reg) (rem_reg) 1 cp -d rem_reg loc_sl [cp: `rem_reg' and `loc_sl' are the same file ](loc_sl -> rem_reg) (rem_reg) ! 1 mv loc_reg rem_sl [mv: cannot lgetfilecon `loc_reg': Operation not supported ](loc_reg) () mv FAILED but removed /home/rpmbuild/df-11133/rem_sl ! 1 mv -b loc_reg rem_sl [mv: cannot lgetfilecon `loc_reg': Operation not supported ](loc_reg) (rem_sl~ -> dir/loc_reg) mv FAILED but removed /home/rpmbuild/df-11133/rem_sl 1 mv rem_sl loc_reg [mv: `rem_sl' and `loc_reg' are the same file ](loc_reg) (rem_sl -> dir/loc_reg) ! 1 mv -b rem_sl loc_reg [mv: cannot lgetfilecon `rem_sl': Operation not supported ](loc_reg~) (rem_sl -> dir/loc_reg) mv FAILED but removed /home/rpmbuild/df-11133/rem_sl mv FAILED but removed loc_reg 1 mv loc_sl rem_reg [mv: `loc_sl' and `rem_reg' are the same file ](loc_sl -> rem_reg) (rem_reg) ! 1 mv -b loc_sl rem_reg [mv: cannot lgetfilecon `loc_sl': Operation not supported ](loc_sl -> rem_reg) (rem_reg~) mv FAILED but removed loc_sl mv FAILED but removed /home/rpmbuild/df-11133/rem_reg ! 1 mv rem_reg loc_sl [mv: cannot lgetfilecon `rem_reg': Operation not supported ]() (rem_reg) mv FAILED but removed loc_sl ! 1 mv -b rem_reg loc_sl [mv: cannot lgetfilecon `rem_reg': Operation not supported ](loc_sl~ -> rem_reg) (rem_reg) mv FAILED but removed loc_sl + expected-11133 actual-11133 differ: char 2441, line 33 FAIL: part-symlink mv: cannot lgetfilecon `foo/': Operation not supported FAIL: part-rename PASS: trailing-slash ====================================== 7 of 25 tests failed Please report to bug-coreutils ======================================
What kernel are you running?
2.4.22aa1 (no SELINUX patch)
Think this is fixed in 5.0-32.sel.
It is fixed in that release. Thanks
