Commit b482925c added ptrace rule for the apparmor profiles,
but one was missed in the libvirtd profile for dnsmasq. It was
overlooked since the test machine did not have an active libvirt
network requiring dnsmasq that was also set to autostart. With
one active and set to autostart, the following denial is observed
in audit.log when restarting libvirtd
type=AVC msg=audit(1507320136.306:298): apparmor="DENIED" \
operation="ptrace" profile="/usr/sbin/libvirtd" pid=5472 \
comm="libvirtd" requested_mask="trace" denied_mask="trace" \
peer="/usr/sbin/dnsmasq"
With an active network, I suspect a libvirtd restart causes access
to /proc/<dnsmasq-pid>/*, hence the resulting denial. As a nasty
side affect of the denial, libvirtd thinks it needs to spawn a
dnsmasq process even though one is already running for the network.
E.g. after two libvirtd restarts
dnsmasq 1683 0.0 0.0 51188 2612 ? S 12:03 0:00 \
/usr/sbin/dnsmasq --conf-file=/var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/default.conf \
--leasefile-ro --dhcp-script=/usr/lib64/libvirt/libvirt_leaseshelper

/usr/sbin/dnsmasq --conf-file=/var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/default.conf \
--leasefile-ro --dhcp-script=/usr/lib64/libvirt/libvirt_leaseshelper
A simple fix is to add a ptrace rule for dnsmasq.
