NAME

6       pcp_pmie_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pcp_pmie pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the  pcp_pmie  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  pcp_pmie  processes  execute with the pcp_pmie_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 pcp_pmie_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  pcp_pmie_t  SELinux  type  can be entered via the file_type, unla‐
25       beled_t,  proc_type,   filesystem_type,   mtrr_device_t,   sysctl_type,
26       pcp_pmie_exec_t file types.
27
28       The  default entrypoint paths for the pcp_pmie_t domain are the follow‐
29       ing:
30
31       all   files    on    the    system,    /dev/cpu/mtrr,    /usr/bin/pmie,
32       /usr/libexec/pcp/bin/pmie
33

PROCESS TYPES

35       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
36       system
37
38       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
39
40       Policy governs the access confined processes have  to  files.   SELinux
41       pcp_pmie policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pcp_pmie
42       processes in as secure a method as possible.
43
44       The following process types are defined for pcp_pmie:
45
46       pcp_pmie_t
47
48       Note: semanage permissive -a pcp_pmie_t can be used to make the process
49       type  pcp_pmie_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
50       process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still  gener‐
51       ated.
52
53

BOOLEANS

55       SELinux   policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access  required.
56       pcp_pmie policy is extremely flexible and  has  several  booleans  that
57       allow  you  to manipulate the policy and run pcp_pmie with the tightest
58       access possible.

60
61
62       If you want to allow all daemons to write corefiles to /, you must turn
63       on the allow_daemons_dump_core boolean. Disabled by default.
64
65       setsebool -P allow_daemons_dump_core 1
66
67
68
69       If  you want to allow all daemons to use tcp wrappers, you must turn on
70       the allow_daemons_use_tcp_wrapper boolean. Disabled by default.
71
72       setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tcp_wrapper 1
73
74
75
76       If you want to allow all daemons the ability to  read/write  terminals,
77       you  must  turn  on  the  allow_daemons_use_tty  boolean.  Disabled  by
78       default.
79
80       setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tty 1
81
82
83
84       If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
85       you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
86
87       setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
88
89
90
91       If  you  want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
92       executable.  Doing this is a really  bad  idea.  Probably  indicates  a
93       badly  coded  executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
94       should be reported in bugzilla, you must  turn  on  the  allow_execheap
95       boolean. Disabled by default.
96
97       setsebool -P allow_execheap 1
98
99
100
101       If  you  want to allow unconfined executables to map a memory region as
102       both executable and writable, this  is  dangerous  and  the  executable
103       should  be  reported  in  bugzilla), you must turn on the allow_execmem
104       boolean. Enabled by default.
105
106       setsebool -P allow_execmem 1
107
108
109
110       If you want to  allow  all  unconfined  executables  to  use  libraries
111       requiring  text  relocation  that are not labeled textrel_shlib_t), you
112       must turn on the allow_execmod boolean. Enabled by default.
113
114       setsebool -P allow_execmod 1
115
116
117
118       If you want to allow unconfined executables to make  their  stack  exe‐
119       cutable.   This  should  never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
120       badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack.  This  executable
121       should  be  reported in bugzilla), you must turn on the allow_execstack
122       boolean. Enabled by default.
123
124       setsebool -P allow_execstack 1
125
126
127
128       If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you  must
129       turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
130
131       setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
132
133
134
135       If  you  want  to enable cluster mode for daemons, you must turn on the
136       daemons_enable_cluster_mode boolean. Disabled by default.
137
138       setsebool -P daemons_enable_cluster_mode 1
139
140
141
142       If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load  modules,  you
143       must  turn  on  the  domain_kernel_load_modules  boolean.  Disabled  by
144       default.
145
146       setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
147
148
149
150       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
151       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
152
153       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
154
155
156
157       If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
158       on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
159
160       setsebool -P global_ssp 1
161
162
163

173
174       setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1
175
176
177
178       If you want to boolean to determine whether the system permits  loading
179       policy,  setting enforcing mode, and changing boolean values.  Set this
180       to true and you have to reboot to set it back, you  must  turn  on  the
181       secure_mode_policyload boolean. Disabled by default.
182
183       setsebool -P secure_mode_policyload 1
184
185
186
187       If you want to support X userspace object manager, you must turn on the
188       xserver_object_manager boolean. Disabled by default.

193

MANAGED FILES

195       The SELinux process type pcp_pmie_t can manage files labeled  with  the
196       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
197       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
198
199       file_type
200
201            all files on the system
202
203

FILE CONTEXTS

205       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
206       type.
207
208       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
209
210       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
211       SELinux pcp_pmie policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their
212       pcp_pmie processes in as secure a method as possible.
213
214       The following file types are defined for pcp_pmie:
215
216
217
218       pcp_pmie_exec_t
219
220       - Set files with the pcp_pmie_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
221       executable to the pcp_pmie_t domain.
222
223
224       Paths:
225            /usr/bin/pmie, /usr/libexec/pcp/bin/pmie
226
227
228       pcp_pmie_initrc_exec_t
229
230       - Set files with the pcp_pmie_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to  tran‐
231       sition an executable to the pcp_pmie_initrc_t domain.
232
233
234
235       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
236       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
237       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
238       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
239
240

COMMANDS

242       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
243       mappings.
244
245       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
246       process type is permissive.
247
248       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
249       icy modules.
250
251       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
252
253
254       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
255       icy settings.
