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 of problem:
After a fresh RHEL 9.0 Beta installation and initial boot there are two mislabeled files created by systemd present:
# restorecon -Rv /
Relabeled /etc/systemd/network/71-net-ifnames-prefix-net0.link from system_u:object_r:systemd_hwdb_etc_t:s0 to system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0
Relabeled /run/machine-id from system_u:object_r:machineid_t:s0 to system_u:object_r:var_run_t:s0
It would be nice to have the labels changed where needed so that restorecon wouldn't change anything. Thanks.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL 9.0 Beta

This one is actually created by prefixdevname, not by systemd; I created bug 2061725 for it.

I'm not sure we can do anything about this one. AFAICS, /run/machine-id is only created if /etc/machine-id failed to be created for any reason, and it is then bind-mounted to /etc/machine-id. That means that /etc/machine-id and /run/machine-id share the same selinux label and a change made on one of them will just make the other one wrong...

... which means that /run/machine-id has to have the same default label as /etc/machine id -> passing over to selinux-policy.
