SELinux is blocking hibernate

[Sreyan Chakravarty <sreyan32@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have just configured a 8GB swap file on my Fedora 31 laptop. But it seems that SELinux is blocking access to the swap file.

SELinux is preventing systemd-sleep from read access on the file fedora.swap.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that systemd-sleep should be allowed read access on the fedora.swap file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c 'systemd-sleep' --raw | audit2allow -M my-systemdsleep
# semodule -X 300 -i my-systemdsleep.pp

The above is the message I got from the SELinux trouble shooter.

This is the screenshot of the problem: https://imgur.com/a/1x55clI

What can I do ?

I don't know a whole lot about SELinux, do I have to add a label or something?

Please help.

Thanks.
