Hi,

With up-to-date Rawhide, I'm getting the following AVC in
my /var/log/messages file:

Feb 23 20:40:34 zx6000 kernel: audit(1140723618.608:3): avc:  denied
{ write }
for  pid=1340 comm="swapon" name="blkid.tab" dev=dm-0 ino=6253814
scontext=system_u:system_r:fsadm_t:s0 tcontext=user_u:object_r:etc_t:s0
tclass=file
Feb 23 20:40:34 zx6000 kernel: Adding 2031584k swap
on /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01.  Priority:-2 extents:1 across:2031584k

I don't know exactly when this problem first appears. It should be noted
that, contrarily to what's displayed, my swap partition isn't 2GB in
size, but 4GB.

Is this a general/64-bit specific/ia64 specific issue?

Many thanks,

        Émeric
