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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2015:2300 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE selinux-policy bug fix update 2015-11-19 09:55:26 UTC

Description Milos Malik 2015-04-09 09:08:55 UTC
Description of problem:
 * one of our automated TCs found these devices on aarch64 machine

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-23.aa7a.noarch
selinux-policy-devel-3.13.1-23.aa7a.noarch
selinux-policy-3.13.1-23.aa7a.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. get an aarch64 machine with RHEL-7.1
2. check the SELinux context of /dev/vhci
3. check the SELinux context of /dev/memory_bandwidth

Actual results:
# matchpathcon /dev/vhci
/dev/vhci	system_u:object_r:device_t:s0
# matchpathcon /dev/memory_bandwidth 
/dev/memory_bandwidth	system_u:object_r:device_t:s0
# 

Expected results:
 * these devices have specific SELinux labels

Additional information:
 * /dev/vhci seems to be a USB Virtual Host Controller Interface
 * /dev/memory_bandwidth is related to Linux PM QoS framework
