Description Jia Yuan Lo 2016-12-10 15:39:18 UTC
Description of problem:
Happened after 1st time install BOINC client and 1st time starting BOINC client service
SELinux is preventing iw from 'create' accesses on the netlink_generic_socket Unknown.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that iw should be allowed create access on the Unknown netlink_generic_socket by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c 'iw' --raw | audit2allow -M my-iw
# semodule -X 300 -i my-iw.pp
