DESCRIPTION

15       This manual page describes the setroubleshootd program.
16
17       setroubleshootd is the  dbus  service  in  the  setroubleshoot  system.
18       setroubleshoot is used to diagnose SELinux denials and attempts to pro‐
19       vide user friendly explanations for a SELinux  denial  (e.g.  AVC)  and
20       recommendations  for  how  one  might  adjust the system to prevent the
21       denial in the future.
22
23       In a standard configuration setroubleshoot is composed  of  two  compo‐
24       nents, sealert and setroubleshootd.
25
26       setroubleshootd  is a system daemon which runs with root privileges and
27       listens for audit events emitted from the kernel  related  to  SELinux.
28       When  the  setroubleshootd  daemon sees an SELinux AVC denial it runs a
29       series of analysis plugins which examines the audit data related to the
30       AVC.  It  records  the  results of the analysis and signals any clients
31       which have attached to the setroubleshootd daemon that a new alert  has
32       been seen.
