From: Alistair Delva <adelva@google.com> stable inclusion form stable-v5.10.82 commit cc73242889b5d24a7449bb1f8ca46d2768c3496f bugzilla: 185877 https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4QU6V Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit 94c4b4fd25e6c3763941bdec3ad54f2204afa992 upstream. Booting to Android userspace on 5.14 or newer triggers the following SELinux denial: avc: denied { sys_nice } for comm="init" capability=23 scontext=u:r:init:s0 tcontext=u:r:init:s0 tclass=capability permissive=0 Init is PID 0 running as root, so it already has CAP_SYS_ADMIN. For better compatibility with older SEPolicy, check ADMIN before NICE.
