[Bug 1495248] Re: usr.bin.firefox blocks /dev/shm

[Jean-Philippe Guérard]

I was able to reproduce the problem, but only using the flash plugin:

Jan 31 23:38:34 tigreraye kernel: [221147.141240] audit: type=1400 audit(1485902314.881:3406): apparmor="DENIED" operation="mknod" profile="/usr/lib/firefox/firefox{,*[^s][^h]}" name="/dev/shm/org.chromium.CvbXEt" pid=11592 comm="plugin-containe" requested_mask="c" denied_mask="c" fsuid=1000 ouid=1000

I also tried the java plugin, but it does not use /dev/shm (it fails,
but for another reason):
