Summary:

SELinux is preventing /bin/ps "getattr" access on /proc/.

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.]

SELinux denied access requested by ps. It is not expected that this access is
required by ps and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also
possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is
causing it to require additional access.

Allowing Access:

You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(http://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.

audit2allow suggests:

#============= ksmtuned_t ==============
#!!!! This avc is a constraint violation.  You will need to add an attribute to either the source or target type to make it work.
#Contraint rule: 
allow ksmtuned_t kernel_t:dir getattr;
