Description Matt Fagnani 2021-03-08 07:10:38 UTC
Description of problem:
gdb has been denied reading card0 which I guess is the GPU device file /dev/dri/card0 labelled dri_device_t. These denial happened at least 3 times each when abrt has been processing crashes in various graphical programs such as the following.
gnome-shell when logging out https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1936229
drkonqi when trying to input a description of a crash https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1930946
backintime-qt when closing https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1844781

The latest such denials happened when using Plasma 5.21.2 or GNOME 40 beta in a Fedora 34 KDE Plasma spin installation with selinux-policy-targeted-3.14.7-24.fc34.noarch in enforcing mode. setroubleshoot showed that this denial was first seen on 2020-11-08 in Fedora 33.


SELinux is preventing gdb from 'read' accesses on the chr_file card0.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that gdb should be allowed read access on the card0 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 'gdb' --raw | audit2allow -M my-gdb
# semodule -X 300 -i my-gdb.pp
