Description
This is a clone of issue OCPBUGS-595. The following is the description of the original issue:
—
Description of problem:
On an OCP cluster v4.10.26, if a custom SELinux policy is applied on nodes (either by an operator or manually by the admin, when the cluster is being upgraded to 4.11.1 and the nodes are performing MCP update pivoting to RHCOS 8.6, hyperkube and kubelet binaries could not be started due to permission error, that is caused by a wrong SELinux context label on these files.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
OCP 4.10.26 --> 4.11.1
RHCOS 410.84.202208030316-0 --> 411.86.202208112011-0
How reproducible:
Not sure, happened in 3 known cases so far.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start with OCP 4.10.26
2. Apply custom SELinux policy on worker nodes
3. Upgrade OCP to 4.11.1
Actual results:
kubelet on the nodes after MCD update is not starting.

kubelet and hyperkube binaries uses unlabeled_t context label:
$ ll --context /usr/bin/hyperkube && ll --context /usr/bin/kubelet -rwxr-xr-x. 2 root root system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0 945 Jan 1 1970 /usr/bin/hyperkube -rwxr-xr-x. 2 root root system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0 116665968 Jan 1 1970 /usr/bin/kubelet
Expected results:
The policies should be integrated successfully and kubelet should start automatically without intervention.
Additional info:
In this state, if changing the SELinux mode from Enforcing to Permissive (setenforce 0), the kubelet starts successfully and the node becoming Ready and Schedulable.
After that, the context of the binary changed is to
system_u:object_r:kubelet_exec_t:s0
and SELinux can be put back in Enforcing mode, allowing kubelet to continue run / restart.
Note:
It happens when OpenShift Virtualization (CNV) 4.10 is installed on the cluster prior the upgrade to OCP 4.11.
CNV is adding a custom SELinux policy:
