I seem to hit four of these, consistently (as well as this 'getattr', there's a 'read' on 'system.journal', a 'read' on 'journal', and a 'search' on 'log') if I do a default live install of F17 Beta RC3-ish (a test live image I built with GNOME 3.4 and the new selinux-policy), do 'systemctl disable NetworkManager.service' then 'systemctl stop NetworkManager.service' to stop NM, edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 to set NM_CONTROLLED=no and ONBOOT=yes , and do 'systemctl start network.service'. The systemctl start operation never completes. If I boot with enforcing=0, it completes quickly. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
Well not sure why it should fail because of this. CC-ing systemd folks. I need to test it too.
The denial seems to be just another case of bug 794771. But it does not explain Adam's observed hang of 'systemctl start network.service'. Adam, what does 'systemctl status network.service' show while the start operation is hung?
