NAME

6       mcelog_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux Policy for the mcelog pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux  secures  the  mcelog  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  mcelog  processes  execute with the mcelog_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 mcelog_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  mcelog_t  SELinux  type  can be entered via the mcelog_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the mcelog_t domain are the following:
28
29       /usr/sbin/mcelog
30

PROCESS TYPES

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

BOOLEANS

52       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.   mcelog
53       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54       manipulate the policy and run mcelog with the tightest access possible.

MANAGED FILES

197       The SELinux process type mcelog_t can manage  files  labeled  with  the
198       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
199       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

246       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
247       type.
248
249       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
250
251       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
252       SELinux mcelog policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup  their
253       mcelog processes in as secure a method as possible.
254
255       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
256
257       SELinux defines the file context types for the mcelog, if you wanted to
258       store files with these types in a diffent paths, you  need  to  execute
259       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
260       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
261
262       semanage fcontext -a -t mcelog_var_run_t '/srv/mymcelog_content(/.*)?'
263       restorecon -R -v /srv/mymcelog_content
264
265       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
266       match multiple files.
267
268       The following file types are defined for mcelog:
269
270
271
272       mcelog_etc_t
273
274       -  Set  files  with  the mcelog_etc_t type, if you want to store mcelog
275       files in the /etc directories.
276
277
278
279       mcelog_exec_t
280
281       - Set files with the mcelog_exec_t type, if you want to  transition  an
282       executable to the mcelog_t domain.
283
284
285
286       mcelog_initrc_exec_t
287
288       -  Set files with the mcelog_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
289       tion an executable to the mcelog_initrc_t domain.
290
291
292
293       mcelog_log_t
294
295       - Set files with the mcelog_log_t type, if you want to treat  the  data
296       as mcelog log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
297
298
299
300       mcelog_var_run_t
301
302       -  Set  files  with the mcelog_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
303       mcelog files under the /run or /var/run directory.
304
305
306
307       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
308       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
309       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
310       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
311
312

COMMANDS

314       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
315       mappings.
316
317       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
318       process type is permissive.
319
320       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
321       icy modules.
322
323       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
324
325
326       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
327       icy settings.
