Description Paul Whalen 2020-03-06 15:36:44 UTC
Description of problem:
After fresh install of Fedora Server (Fedora-32-20200306.n.0 compose)

SELinux is preventing ModemManager from using the setsched access on a process.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that ModemManager should be allowed setsched access on processes labeled modemmanager_t 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:
# ausearch -c 'ModemManager' --raw | audit2allow -M my-ModemManager
# semodule -X 300 -i my-ModemManager.pp

Comment 1 Zdenek Pytela 2020-03-06 15:45:48 UTC
Paul,

Thank you for reporting the issue. This AVC will be dontaudited in the next version of the selinux-policy package. Apart from the denial reported, do you also see any functionality issue?

Comment 2 Paul Whalen 2020-03-06 16:02:08 UTC


Thanks, no functionality issues so far. 

I saw a few more right after install, if you would like I can open separate bugs.

Comment 3 Zdenek Pytela 2020-03-06 16:22:54 UTC
Paul,

No need to create bugzillas for the setsched permission unless you see an issue with the software. With the update the denials will no longer be audited.

Closing this bz as duplicate of bz#1795524, you can find additional information there if interested.
