Description nalmond 2018-10-23 15:25:53 UTC
Description of problem:
When launching an instance with multiqueue enabled as an image property, the instance fails to start. An avc denial can be seen in the audit log:

type=AVC msg=audit(1540216030.840:31215): avc:  denied  { attach_queue } for  pid=34373 comm=43505520312F4B564D scontext=system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c457,c875 tcontext=system_u:system_r:spc_t:s0 tclass=tun_socket

Disabling selinux or running the below commands allows the instance to start:

#audit2allow -a -M attach_queue
#semodule -i attach_queue.pp

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openstack-selinux-0.8.14-12.el7ost.noarch                   Wed Jul 11 03:27:18 2018
selinux-policy-3.13.1-192.el7_5.4.noarch                    Wed Jul 11 02:42:42 2018
selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-192.el7_5.4.noarch           Wed Jul 11 02:45:15 2018


How reproducible:
Consistently in this RHEL 7.5 RHOSP 13 environment

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Deploy RHOSP 13 with dpdk https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/13/html-single/network_functions_virtualization_planning_and_configuration_guide/
2. Attempt to launch an instance with multiqueue
3.

Actual results:
Instance fails to start with avc denial

Expected results:
Instance starts without manual selinux modification

Additional info:
This looks similar to an older bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1095636

Hello Nicholas, 

sorry for late response. I would like to ask whether there is any reason why you are trying it with RHEL 7.5? The issue might be fixed in RHEL 7.6 with the current container-selinux policy. 

Thank you 

Zoli Caplovic
