Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.
Before attempting to update to 7.7
yum update selinux-policy

yum reinstall pcp-selinux
after the update to 7.7 should fix it

Description of problem: Upgrading to latest RHEL 7 PCP package pcp-4.3.2-2.el7 gives several issues. 1) During installation/upgrade of pcp-selinux: Updating / installing... 1:pcp-selinux-4.3.2-2.el7 ################################# [100%] Failed to resolve allow statement at /etc/selinux/targeted/tmp/modules/400/pcpupstream/cil:83 semodule: Failed! On dmesg we see these corresponding messages: [ 141.461377] SELinux: 2048 avtab hash slots, 112449 rules. [ 141.493590] SELinux: 2048 avtab hash slots, 112449 rules.

[ 141.515474] SELinux: the above unknown classes and permissions will be allowed 2) pmie_check.service is for some reason static unlike other PCP services: pmie_check.service static pmlogger_check.service disabled Not sure which one is the correct but since everything else is non-static perhaps also change pmie_check.service to be so as well. 3) Stopping PCP services takes few seconds but this is probably still within tolerable range so could be left as is: # time systemctl stop pmcd pmlogger pmie pmwebd pmmgr pmproxy systemctl stop pmcd pmlogger pmie pmwebd pmmgr pmproxy 0.02s user 0.04s system 1% cpu 4.329 total 4) There are now tons of PCP SELinux AVCs (I haven't investigated these in detail, many of them are probably fixed in upstream already): type=AVC
