6 fsdaemon_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the fsdaemon pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the fsdaemon processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The fsdaemon processes execute with the fsdaemon_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 fsdaemon_t
20
21
22
24 The fsdaemon_t SELinux type can be entered via the fsdaemon_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the fsdaemon_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/smartd
31
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 fsdaemon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their fsdaemon
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for fsdaemon:
43
44 fsdaemon_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a fsdaemon_t can be used to make the process
47 type fsdaemon_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
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. fsdae‐
54 mon policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run fsdaemon with the tightest access
56 possible.

227 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
228 type.
229
230 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
231
232 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
233 SELinux fsdaemon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
234 fsdaemon processes in as secure a method as possible.
235
236 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
237
238 SELinux defines the file context types for the fsdaemon, if you wanted
239 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
240 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
241 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
242
243 semanage fcontext -a -t fsdaemon_var_run_t '/srv/myfsdaemon_con‐
244 tent(/.*)?'
245 restorecon -R -v /srv/myfsdaemon_content
246
247 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
248 match multiple files.
249
250 The following file types are defined for fsdaemon:
251
252
253
254 fsdaemon_exec_t
255
256 - Set files with the fsdaemon_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
257 executable to the fsdaemon_t domain.
258
259
260
261 fsdaemon_initrc_exec_t
262
263 - Set files with the fsdaemon_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
264 sition an executable to the fsdaemon_initrc_t domain.
265
266
267
268 fsdaemon_tmp_t
269
270 - Set files with the fsdaemon_tmp_t type, if you want to store fsdaemon
271 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
272
273
274
275 fsdaemon_var_lib_t
276
277 - Set files with the fsdaemon_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
278 fsdaemon files under the /var/lib directory.
279
280
281
282 fsdaemon_var_run_t
283
284 - Set files with the fsdaemon_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
285 fsdaemon files under the /run or /var/run directory.
286
287
288
289 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
290 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
291 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
292 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
293
294
296 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
297 mappings.
298
299 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
300 process type is permissive.
301
302 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
303 icy modules.
304
305 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
306
307
308 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
309 icy settings.
