Thanks for the help. The strnage thing is that after June 6, 18:00, this
message avc: denied { ioctl }... suddenly does not show up any more (up to
now, June 8, 9am). If it shows up again, I will do the above. Now, I am just
curious what happened. I did not change the policy in these two days, did not
change any system setting either. What does the error message mean? What is
loadavg?
Thanks!
