Created attachment 589198 [details] VM config file Description of problem: After importing a working VM from a previous installation (opensuse) into Fedora 17, running this VM from virt-manager with an SELinux error. Closer analysis shows that SELinux is rejecting rawip socket access - this happens at least once a second, basically freezing the system and preventing the VM from working Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): qemu-kvm-1.0-17.fc17.x86_64 How reproducible: Happens every time I start the vm Steps to Reproduce: 1. open virt-manager 2. start VM 3. observe errors Actual results: type=AVC msg=audit(1338425056.093:180): avc: denied { create } for pid=1792 comm="qemu-kvm" scontext=system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c828,c902 tcontext=system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c828,c902 tclass=rawip_socket I get one of these messages about every second in the /var/log/audit/audit.log file Expected results: a working VM Additional info: here's the command line used (according to the qemu log file) LC_ALL=C PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin /usr/bin/qemu-kvm -S -M pc-0.14 -cpu core2duo,+lahf_lm,+rdtscp,+aes,+popcnt,+x2apic,+sse4.2,+sse4.1,+xtpr, +cx16,+tm2,+est,+vmx,+ds_cpl,+pbe,+tm,+ht,+ss,+acpi,+ds -enable-kvm -m 1280 -smp 2,sockets=2,cores=1,threads=1 -name ITVM -uuid c6c00f22-3c8b-f2b5-eb96-facd1facaefa -node fconfig -nodefaults -chardev socket,id=charmonitor,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/ITVM.monitor,server,nowait -mon chardev=charmonitor,id=monitor,mode=control -rtc base=localt ime -no-shutdown -device piix3-usb-uhci,id=usb,bus=pci.0,addr=0x1.0x2 -drive file=/dev/sda8,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,format=raw -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=0,drive= drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0,bootindex=1 -netdev user,id=hostnet0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=net0,mac=52:54:00:e7:2a:94,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3 -chardev pty,id=ch arserial0 -device isa-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0 -device usb-tablet,id=input0 -vnc 127.0.0.1:0 -vga std -device intel-hda,id=sound0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 -device hda-duplex,id=sound0-codec0,bus=sound0.0,cad=0 -device virtio-balloon-pci,id=balloon0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x5

You're actually not using the libvirt network; you're using usermode (slirp) networking. As a workaround, or perhaps a fix, please switch from usermode to tap networking. It will also be much faster, and virt-manager will configure everything for you.
