Summary: SELinux is preventing /bin/bash "getattr" access on /sbin/modprobe. Detailed Description: [SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by governor-max-fr. It is not expected that this access is required by governor-max-fr 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.

This happened with systemd-8-1 and systemd-8-2. There are 11 other AVC denials that occur during boot. I only filed one other report, bug 627752. Let me know if I should file the other ten. Gene
