NAME

6       eventlogd_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced Linux Policy for the eventlogd
7       processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the eventlogd  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  eventlogd processes execute with the eventlogd_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 eventlogd_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  eventlogd_t  SELinux  type can be entered via the eventlogd_exec_t
25       file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the eventlogd_t domain are the follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/sbin/eventlogd
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       eventlogd  policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their event‐
40       logd processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for eventlogd:
43
44       eventlogd_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a  eventlogd_t  can  be  used  to  make  the
47       process  type  eventlogd_t  permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48       permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux  denials)  messages  are
49       still generated.
50
51

BOOLEANS

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

MANAGED FILES

133       The SELinux process type eventlogd_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

204       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
205       type.
206
207       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
208
209       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
210       SELinux eventlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
211       eventlogd processes in as secure a method as possible.
212
213       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
214
215       SELinux defines the file context types for the eventlogd, if you wanted
216       to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
217       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
218       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
219
220       semanage fcontext -a -t  eventlogd_var_socket_t  '/srv/myeventlogd_con‐
221       tent(/.*)?'
222       restorecon -R -v /srv/myeventlogd_content
223
224       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
225       match multiple files.
226
227       The following file types are defined for eventlogd:
228
229
230
231       eventlogd_exec_t
232
233       - Set files with the eventlogd_exec_t type, if you want  to  transition
234       an executable to the eventlogd_t domain.
235
236
237
238       eventlogd_var_lib_t
239
240       - Set files with the eventlogd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
241       eventlogd files under the /var/lib directory.
242
243
244
245       eventlogd_var_run_t
246
247       - Set files with the eventlogd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
248       eventlogd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
249
250
251
252       eventlogd_var_socket_t
253
254       -  Set files with the eventlogd_var_socket_t type, if you want to treat
255       the files as eventlogd var socket data.
256
257
258
259       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
260       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
261       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
262       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
263
264

COMMANDS

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