Do you have selinux-policy installed?

Thanks.
Cascardo.

This request needs to be satisfied by updating the selinux targetted package, iirc.  I have one update ready to go, but we will need to run a few different devices and scenarios to make sure that we capture all of the cases.  UIO, VFIO, and vhost-user are the ones I'm thinking.  I will obtain captures and try to write up a patch for the targetted policy in the next week.

I believe the following selinux policy should cover vfio and vhost-user, but you'll need to test.  Also note that for vhost-user changes, you'll definitely need a change to the libvirt policy.  I haven't tested with uio.  Not sure how to get this into the selinux-policy or whether we should ship it as part of the ovs package (flavio / anita?)

Hi Lukas,

The AVC denials posted on comment #5.
In additional, the selinux troubleshooter output attached for all 4 AVC denials.

Thanks,
Maxim.

Hi Lukas,

Ok. I'll try it and then post the results.

Thanks,
Maxim.
