NAME

6       evtchnd_selinux  -  Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the evtchnd pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures  the  evtchnd  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  evtchnd processes execute with the evtchnd_t SELinux type. You can
14       check if you have these processes running by executing the  ps  command
15       with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep evtchnd_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  evtchnd_t  SELinux type can be entered via the evtchnd_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the evtchnd_t domain are  the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/sbin/evtchnd
31

PROCESS TYPES

33       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34       system
35
36       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37
38       Policy governs the access confined processes have  to  files.   SELinux
39       evtchnd  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup their evtchnd
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for evtchnd:
43
44       evtchnd_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a evtchnd_t can be used to make the  process
47       type  evtchnd_t  permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48       process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still  gener‐
49       ated.
50
51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  evtchnd
54       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55       manipulate  the  policy and run evtchnd with the tightest access possi‐
56       ble.

MANAGED FILES

133       The SELinux process type evtchnd_t can manage files  labeled  with  the
134       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
135       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

205       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
206       type.
207
208       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
209
210       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
211       SELinux evtchnd policy is very flexible allowing users to  setup  their
212       evtchnd processes in as secure a method as possible.
213
214       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
215
216       SELinux  defines  the file context types for the evtchnd, if you wanted
217       to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
218       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
219       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
220
221       semanage  fcontext   -a   -t   evtchnd_var_run_t   '/srv/myevtchnd_con‐
222       tent(/.*)?'
223       restorecon -R -v /srv/myevtchnd_content
224
225       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
226       match multiple files.
227
228       The following file types are defined for evtchnd:
229
230
231
232       evtchnd_exec_t
233
234       - Set files with the evtchnd_exec_t type, if you want to transition  an
235       executable to the evtchnd_t domain.
236
237
238
239       evtchnd_var_log_t
240
241       -  Set  files with the evtchnd_var_log_t type, if you want to treat the
242       data as evtchnd var log data, usually stored under the /var/log  direc‐
243       tory.
244
245
246
247       evtchnd_var_run_t
248
249       -  Set  files with the evtchnd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
250       evtchnd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
251
252
253       Paths:
254            /var/run/evtchnd, /var/run/evtchnd.pid
255
256
257       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
258       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
259       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
260       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
261
262

COMMANDS

264       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
265       mappings.
266
267       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
268       process type is permissive.
269
270       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
271       icy modules.
272
273       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
274
275
276       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
277       icy settings.
