Description of problem: Started power-profiles-daemon SELinux is preventing power-profiles- from 'watch' accesses on the directory /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that power-profiles- should be allowed watch access on the intel_pstate directory 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 'power-profiles-' --raw | audit2allow -M my-powerprofiles # semodule -X 300 -i my-powerprofiles.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:powerprofiles_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:sysfs_t:s0 Target Objects /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate [ dir ] Source power-profiles- Source Path power-profiles- Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-41.34-1.fc42.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-41.34-1.fc42.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 6.14.0-0.rc7.56.fc42.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Mar 17 13:25:24 UTC 2025 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2025-03-21 23:43:02 CET Last Seen 2025-03-21 23:43:02 CET Local ID 4cdd4d55-36a4-41c1-a2f7-234499a0ec0a Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1742596982.867:681): avc: denied { watch } for pid=8624 comm="power-profiles-" path="/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate" dev="sysfs" ino=20695 scontext=system_u:system_r:powerprofiles_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:sysfs_t:s0 tclass=dir permissive=1 Hash: power-profiles-,powerprofiles_t,sysfs_t,dir,watch Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-targeted-41.34-1.fc42.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.17.15 reason: SELinux is preventing power-profiles- from 'watch' accesses on the directory /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate. package: selinux-policy-targeted-41.34-1.fc42.noarch component: selinux-policy hashmarkername: setroubleshoot type: libreport kernel: 6.14.0-0.rc7.56.fc42.x86_64 comment: Started power-profiles-daemon component: selinux-policy
