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).

After disable and enable "Data Exchange" in the "Integration Services" from Hyper-V manager about 20 times, it will get the selinux denied log in the /var/log/audit/audit.log. This is detected by auto test case “https://github.com/LIS/lis-test/blob/master/WS2012R2/lisa/setupscripts/KVP_TestRescind.ps1."

Avc denied log:  type=AVC msg=audit(1590994186.905:635): avc:  denied  { module_request } for  pid=2750 comm="hypervkvpd" kmod="char-major-10-61" scontext=system_u:system_r:hypervkvp_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:kerne

1. Execute the lisa auto test case “https://github.com/LIS/lis-test/blob/master/WS2012R2/lisa/setupscripts/KVP_TestRescind.ps1."

2. Check the avc log, get the following denied log.

# cat /var/log/audit/audit.log | grep -i avc

type=AVC msg=audit(1586508667.353:568): avc:  denied  { module_request } for  pid=22568 comm="hypervkvpd" kmod="char-major-10-57" scontext=system_u:system_r:hypervkvp_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0 tclass=system permissive=0

Actual results:
There are error messages in /var/log/audit/audit.log

Expected results:
No error message in /var/log/audit/audit.log

Additional info:

- It's a regression issue. No this issue on RHEL 8.2 kernel 4.18.0-193.el8.x86_64 and hyperv-daemons-0-0.28.20180415git.el8.x86_64.

- Try manual enable and disable "Data Exchange" in the "Integration Services" of Hyper-V Manager, cannot reproduce this issue yet.
