Description of problem: I'm seeing lot of avc denied messages upon booting. Everything seems to be working normally for me, but I guess it's a sign that something's up :) There's about 10 of these messages after the boot: May 28 22:45:10 localhost kernel: audit(1180385084.803:13): avc: denied { search } for pid=1158 comm="alsactl" name="root" dev=dm-0 ino=97345 scontext=system_u:system_r:udev_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:default_t:s0 tclass=dir May 28 22:45:10 localhost kernel: audit(1180385084.803:8): avc: denied { search } for pid=1158 comm="salsa" name="root" dev=dm-0 ino=97345 scontext=system_u:system_r:udev_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:default_t:s0 tclass=dir Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-targeted-2.6.4-8.fc7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot the computer 2. look into /var/log/messages to see the denials Actual results: avc denials for alsactl and salsa Expected results: no avc denials Additional info: N/A
This is caused by an install bug which did not label /root and /home correctly. restorecon -R -v /root /home Will fix.
