6 ipmievd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the ipmievd pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the ipmievd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The ipmievd processes execute with the ipmievd_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 ipmievd_t
20
21
22
24 The ipmievd_t SELinux type can be entered via the ipmievd_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the ipmievd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/ipmievd, /usr/libexec/openipmi-helper
31
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 ipmievd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their ipmievd
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for ipmievd:
43
44 ipmievd_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a ipmievd_t can be used to make the process
47 type ipmievd_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
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. ipmievd
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run ipmievd with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.

227 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
228 type.
229
230 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
231
232 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
233 SELinux ipmievd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
234 ipmievd processes in as secure a method as possible.
235
236 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
237
238 SELinux defines the file context types for the ipmievd, if you wanted
239 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
240 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
241 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
242
243 semanage fcontext -a -t ipmievd_var_run_t '/srv/myipmievd_con‐
244 tent(/.*)?'
245 restorecon -R -v /srv/myipmievd_content
246
247 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
248 match multiple files.
249
250 The following file types are defined for ipmievd:
251
252
253
254 ipmievd_exec_t
255
256 - Set files with the ipmievd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
257 executable to the ipmievd_t domain.
258
259
260 Paths:
261 /usr/sbin/ipmievd, /usr/libexec/openipmi-helper
262
263
264 ipmievd_lock_t
265
266 - Set files with the ipmievd_lock_t type, if you want to treat the
267 files as ipmievd lock data, stored under the /var/lock directory
268
269
270
271 ipmievd_unit_file_t
272
273 - Set files with the ipmievd_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
274 files as ipmievd unit content.
275
276
277
278 ipmievd_var_run_t
279
280 - Set files with the ipmievd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
281 ipmievd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
282
283
284
285 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
286 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
287 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
288 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
289
290
292 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
293 mappings.
294
295 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
296 process type is permissive.
297
298 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
299 icy modules.
300
301 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
302
303
304 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
305 icy settings.
