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

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      selinux-policy-38.1.37-1.el9.noarch
      selinux-policy-targeted-38.1.37-1.el9.noarch
      bootupd-0.2.18-1.el9.aarch64

      How reproducible:

      sometimes on aarch64 machines which have EFI

      Steps to reproduce

      1. get a RHEL-9.5 machine (the targeted policy is active)
      2. run the following automated test: /CoreOS/selinux-policy/Regression/bootupd-and-similar
      3. search for SELinux denials

      Expected results

      no SELinux denials

      Actual results
