Description of problem: QEMU isn't able to access TPM devices so virtual machines using these as pass-through devices fail to start. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-3.13.1-280.fc27.noarch How reproducible: Easy to reproduce. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a new Virtual Machine in virt-manager 2. Choose the machine and View -> Details -> Add Hardware -> TPM -> Finish 3. Power on the virtual machine Actual results: The machine doesn't start because QEMU fails due not having access to the TPM device. Expected results: The virtual machine should start. Additional info: SELinux is preventing qemu-kvm from 'read, write' accesses on the chr_file /dev/tpm0. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that qemu-kvm should be allowed read write access on the tpm0 chr_file 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 'qemu-kvm' --raw | audit2allow -M my-qemukvm # semodule -X 300 -i my-qemukvm.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c605,c737 Target Context system_u:object_r:tpm_device_t:s0 Target Objects /dev/tpm0 [ chr_file ] Source qemu-kvm Source Path qemu-kvm Port <Unknown> Host <Unknown> Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.13.1-280.fc27.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (deleted) Platform Linux (deleted) 4.13.2-300.fc27.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Sep 14 17:37:18 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2017-09-18 10:41:38 CEST Last Seen 2017-09-18 10:41:38 CEST Local ID 6f6902af-ecdb-428d-8ba0-22f6ee4f677c Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1505724098.833:2256): avc: denied { read write } for pid=11351 comm="qemu-kvm" path="/dev/tpm0" dev="devtmpfs" ino=3400 scontext=system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c605,c737 tcontext=system_u:object_r:tpm_device_t:s0 tclass=chr_file permissive=0 It works if the the local policy module mentioned above is generated or if SELinux is changed to permissive mode.
