RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
on rhel7, when user attempts to create a container the operation initially _seems_ to succeed but the swift-container is blocked by selinux from connecting to TCP port 6002 during the process

the audit.log prints the following:

type=AVC msg=audit(1402292494.533:664): avc:  denied  { name_connect } for  pid=2593 comm="swift-container" dest=6002 scontext=system_u:system_r:swift_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:xserver_port_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-targeted-3.12.1-153.el7_0.10.noarch
selinux-policy-3.12.1-153.el7_0.10.noarch

Created attachment 904770 [details]
AVC messages from audit.log

To start with, rsync_full_access needs to be set:

# setsebool -P rsync_full_access 1

This part needs to be fixed in staypuft.

Ports 6000, 6001, 6002 are all used by Swift.

So, these should be allowed.

I added fixes to Fedora/RHEL7.1
