NAME

6       virtlogd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the virtlogd pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

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

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The virtlogd_t SELinux type can be entered via the virtlogd_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the virtlogd_t domain are the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/sbin/virtlogd
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       virtlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their virtlogd
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for virtlogd:
43
44       virtlogd_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a virtlogd_t can be used to make the process
47       type  virtlogd_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.  virt‐
54       logd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans  that  allow
55       you  to manipulate the policy and run virtlogd with the tightest access
56       possible.

MANAGED FILES

178       The  SELinux  process type virtlogd_t can manage files labeled with the
179       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
180       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

240       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
241       type.
242
243       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
244
245       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
246       SELinux  virtlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
247       virtlogd processes in as secure a method as possible.
248
249       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
250
251       SELinux defines the file context types for the virtlogd, if you  wanted
252       to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
253       the semanage command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and  then  use
254       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
255
256       semanage   fcontext   -a  -t  virtlogd_var_run_t  '/srv/myvirtlogd_con‐
257       tent(/.*)?'
258       restorecon -R -v /srv/myvirtlogd_content
259
260       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
261       match multiple files.
262
263       The following file types are defined for virtlogd:
264
265
266
267       virtlogd_etc_t
268
269       - Set files with the virtlogd_etc_t type, if you want to store virtlogd
270       files in the /etc directories.
271
272
273
274       virtlogd_exec_t
275
276       - Set files with the virtlogd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
277       executable to the virtlogd_t domain.
278
279
280
281       virtlogd_initrc_exec_t
282
283       -  Set files with the virtlogd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
284       sition an executable to the virtlogd_initrc_t domain.
285
286
287
288       virtlogd_unit_file_t
289
290       - Set files with the virtlogd_unit_file_t type, if you  want  to  treat
291       the files as virtlogd unit content.
292
293
294
295       virtlogd_var_run_t
296
297       -  Set files with the virtlogd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
298       virtlogd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
299
300
301       Paths:
302            /var/run/virtlogd.pid, /var/run/libvirt/virtlogd-sock
303
304
305       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
306       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
307       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
308       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
309
310

COMMANDS

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