What were you trying to do that didn't work?

On OCP version 4.21 based on RHEL-10.1 stream when i ran an unprivileged pod and tried to run a server on SMC protocol, i see denials in audit log:

sh-5.2$ strace -e socket smc_run socat TCP-LISTEN:5000 -
— SIGCHLD {si_signo=SIGCHLD, si_code=CLD_EXITED, si_pid=95, si_uid=1000, si_status=1, si_utime=0, si_stime=0} —

What is the impact of this issue to you?

I can't run server programs and hence i can't use SMC sockets fully.
