Description Vít Ondruch 2015-12-15 22:45:15 UTC
Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing systemd from 'create' accesses on the unix_stream_socket Unknown.

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

If you believe that systemd should be allowed create access on the Unknown unix_stream_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 systemd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 6 Adam Williamson 2016-01-13 00:26:16 UTC
Proposing as a Final blocker, criterion "All system services present after installation with one of the release-blocking package sets must start properly, unless they require hardware which is not present." - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_24_Final_Release_Criteria#System_services . This bug results in virtlogd.service failing to start after install of Workstation, per openQA tests, e.g. https://openqa.stg.fedoraproject.org/tests/4307 .

Comment 7 Stephen Gallagher 2016-01-14 14:13:30 UTC
Description of problem:
I attempted to create a new virtual machine using virt-manager. It failed with the error:

Unable to complete install: 'Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtlogd-sock': No such file or directory'

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 90, in cb_wrapper
    callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs)

    guest.start_install(meter=meter)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/guest.py", line 501, in start_install
    noboot)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/guest.py", line 416, in _create_guest

    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateLinux() failed', conn=self)
libvirtError: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtlogd-sock': No such file or directory

When I went and attempted to start virtlogd.socket manually with systemctl, I got the error:

Jan 14 09:10:28 sgallagh540.sgallagh.rht systemd[1]: virtlogd.socket: Failed to listen on sockets: Permission denied
Jan 14 09:10:28 sgallagh540.sgallagh.rht systemd[1]: Failed to listen on Virtual machine log manager socket.

Examining the SELinux errors, it seems that this denial is to blame.

Comment 8 Petr Schindler 2016-01-18 17:48:24 UTC
Discussed at 2016-01-18 blocker review meeting: [1]. 

This bug was accepted as a Final blocker: This bug violates the final criterion "All system services present after installation with one of the release-blocking package sets must start properly, unless they require hardware which is not present."

Comment 10 Lukas Vrabec 2016-01-19 14:12:48 UTC
Hi, 

Could anyone test this issue with this reproducer:

1. #semanage fcontext -a -t virtd_exec_t /usr/sbin/virtlogd
2. #restorecon -v /usr/sbin/virtlogd
3. reboot system

It looks like this working on my Rawhide system. 

Thank you!

Comment 25 Stephen Gallagher 2017-02-06 13:15:19 UTC
I'm reopening this, as it's happening to me on a fully-updated Rawhide system right now (selinux-policy-3.13.1-236.fc26.noarch) and attempting to report it via the SELinux Troubleshooter keeps marking it as duplicate of this issue.

Comment 26 Amnon Harel 2017-03-06 13:02:53 UTC
Same selinux report on RH25, with Policy RPM:

Comment 27 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 19:38:42 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '24'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 28 Fedora End Of Life 2017-08-08 12:31:50 UTC
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
