RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Petr Sklenar 2011-09-01 07:42:00 UTC 
Description of problem:
tog-pegasus is not stopped successfully, port 5989 is occupied by cimserver

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tog-pegasus-2.11.0-2.el6.i686 from rhel62 errata

How reproducible:
deterministic

Steps to Reproduce:
# /etc/init.d/tog-pegasus stop
[  OK  ] down CIM server: [FAILED]
# /etc/init.d/tog-pegasus start
Starting up CIM server: [  OK  ]
# /etc/init.d/tog-pegasus stop
[  OK  ] down CIM server: [  OK  ]
# /etc/init.d/tog-pegasus start
Starting up CIM server: cimserver not started: Bind failed: Failed to bind socket on port 5989: Address already in use (error code 98).
[FAILED]
# /etc/init.d/tog-pegasus stop
[  OK  ] down CIM server: [FAILED]
# /etc/init.d/tog-pegasus start
Starting up CIM server: cimserver not started: Bind failed: Failed to bind socket on port 5989: Address already in use (error code 98).
[FAILED]
# /etc/init.d/tog-pegasus stop
[  OK  ] down CIM server: [FAILED]
# netstat -putna | grep 5989
tcp        0      0 :::5989                     :::*                        LISTEN      12304/cimservermain 


  
Actual results:
socket on port 5989: Address already in use (error code 98).

Expected results:
port is release

Additional info:
old behavior:

It's because of Privilege Separation feature. There are now two tog-pegasus processes - cimserver (killed in init script) and cimservermain, which should be killed by cimserver, but it's not, SELinux prevents it:

type=AVC msg=audit(1315218438.116:78130): avc:  denied  { kill } for  pid=2565 comm="cimserver" capability=5  scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:pegasus_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:system_r:pegasus_t:s0 tclass=capability
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1315218438.116:78130): arch=c000003e syscall=62 success=no exit=-1 a0=a06 a1=f a2=7fff9b15915f a3=0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=2565 auid=0 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=1 comm="cimserver" exe="/usr/sbin/cimserver" subj=unconfined_u:system_r:pegasus_t:s0 key=(null)

The issue is also described in [1]. We have Privilege Separation enabled for the first time in RHEL.

Comment 8 Miroslav Grepl 2011-09-21 10:31:30 UTC 
If the part of this issue was SELinux then it was fixed in the latest policy

# sesearch -A -s pegasus_t -t pegasus_t -c capability -p kill
Found 1 semantic av rules:
   allow pegasus_t pegasus_t : capability { chown dac_override kill setgid setuid net_bind_service ipc_lock sys_nice audit_write } ;
