Description Major Hayden 🤠 2024-03-20 13:28:11 UTC
I'm working on implementing dhcpcd support in cloud-init in BZ 2247055 and it's working well except for an SELinux AVC during the boot:

AVC avc:  denied  { connectto } for  pid=769 comm="dhcpcd" path="/run/dhcpcd/eth0-4.unpriv.sock" scontext=system_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0 tclass=unix_stream_socket permissive=0

I'm not sure if this is in Fedora's selinux-policy patches or if this comes from the mainline policy repository.

Reproducible: Always

Thanks for the early report, you can try this PR scratchbuild to see if the fix is sufficient:

Thanks for testing, it'll be in the next rawhide and f40 builds.
