Description of problem: Way wouldn't systemd be allowed to release a lock when the temp file is closed? SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/systemctl from 'lock' accesses on the file /run/utmp. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that systemctl should be allowed lock access on the utmp file 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 runlevel /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:abrt_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:initrc_var_run_t:s0 Target Objects /run/utmp [ file ] Source runlevel Source Path /usr/bin/systemctl Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages systemd-200-2.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages initscripts-9.45-2.fc19.x86_64 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-24.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.9.0-0.rc4.git0.1.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Mar 25 02:31:02 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-03-29 20:40:02 PDT Last Seen 2013-03-29 20:40:02 PDT Local ID 6708684f-adac-4608-9a70-0798dfee8c6f Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1364614802.360:1113): avc: denied { lock } for pid=25350 comm="runlevel" path="/run/utmp" dev="tmpfs" ino=15583 scontext=system_u:system_r:abrt_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:initrc_var_run_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1364614802.360:1113): arch=x86_64 syscall=fcntl success=yes exit=0 a0=3 a1=7 a2=7fff2b44d520 a3=8 items=0 ppid=25349 pid=25350 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm=runlevel exe=/usr/bin/systemctl subj=system_u:system_r:abrt_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: runlevel,abrt_t,initrc_var_run_t,file,lock audit2allow #============= abrt_t ============== allow abrt_t initrc_var_run_t:file lock; audit2allow -R require { type abrt_t; } #============= abrt_t ============== init_read_utmp(abrt_t) Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.9.0-0.rc4.git0.1.fc19.x86_64 type: libreport Potential duplicate: bug 928989
