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 Daniel Walsh 2018-01-25 09:24:54 UTC
Currently we have to back port lots of changes to container-selinux for RHEL since the interfaces were updated in policy that has never made its way back into RHEL.  Container types are defined in virt.* policy.  They were defined with a bad name svirt_lxc_net_t and svirt_sandbox_file_t.  They were later updated to the much more understandable container_t and container_file_t.  Most documentation about SELinux in containers now refers to these new types, so it is confusing for users to have different types in RHEL/Centos then is in Fedora/Ubuntu ...

Updating the virt policy would have limited effect in that new fixes added to fedora would now be in effect for Virt bugs.
