Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/qemu-kvm from 'create' accesses on the rawip_socket . ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that qemu-kvm should be allowed create access on the rawip_socket by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep qemu-kvm /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c368,c879 Target Context unconfined_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c368,c879 Target Objects [ rawip_socket ] Source qemu-kvm Source Path /usr/bin/qemu-kvm Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages qemu-system-x86-1.2.2-1.fc18.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-67.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.6.11-3.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Dec 17 21:35:39 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 2 First Seen 2012-12-27 20:31:13 IST Last Seen 2012-12-27 20:31:18 IST Local ID c35d2370-8747-448d-aa04-b3797289aa13 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1356633078.111:738): avc: denied { create } for pid=16399 comm="qemu-kvm" scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c368,c879 tcontext=unconfined_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c368,c879 tclass=rawip_socket type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1356633078.111:738): arch=x86_64 syscall=socket success=no exit=EACCES a0=2 a1=80002 a2=1 a3=a8 items=0 ppid=1 pid=16399 auid=1000 uid=1000 gid=1000 euid=1000 suid=1000 fsuid=1000 egid=1000 sgid=1000 fsgid=1000 tty=(none) ses=2 comm=qemu-kvm exe=/usr/bin/qemu-kvm subj=unconfined_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c368,c879 key=(null) Hash: qemu-kvm,svirt_t,svirt_t,rawip_socket,create audit2allow #============= svirt_t ============== #!!!!
