6 hwloc_dhwd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the hwloc_dhwd
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the hwloc_dhwd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The hwloc_dhwd processes execute with the hwloc_dhwd_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep hwloc_dhwd_t
20
21
22
24 The hwloc_dhwd_t SELinux type can be entered via the hwloc_dhwd_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the hwloc_dhwd_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/hwloc-dump-hwdata
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 hwloc_dhwd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 hwloc_dhwd processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for hwloc_dhwd:
43
44 hwloc_dhwd_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a hwloc_dhwd_t can be used to make the
47 process type hwloc_dhwd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
54 hwloc_dhwd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run hwloc_dhwd with the tightest
56 access possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
68 The SELinux process type hwloc_dhwd_t can manage files labeled with the
69 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
70 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
71
72 hwloc_var_run_t
73
74 /var/run/hwloc(/.*)?
75
76
78 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
79 type.
80
81 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
82
83 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
84 SELinux hwloc_dhwd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
85 their hwloc_dhwd processes in as secure a method as possible.
86
87 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
88
89 SELinux defines the file context types for the hwloc_dhwd, if you
90 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
91 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
92 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
93
94 semanage fcontext -a -t hwloc_dhwd_unit_t '/srv/myhwloc_dhwd_con‐
95 tent(/.*)?'
96 restorecon -R -v /srv/myhwloc_dhwd_content
97
98 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
99 match multiple files.
100
101 The following file types are defined for hwloc_dhwd:
102
103
104
105 hwloc_dhwd_exec_t
106
107 - Set files with the hwloc_dhwd_exec_t type, if you want to transition
108 an executable to the hwloc_dhwd_t domain.
109
110
111
112 hwloc_dhwd_unit_t
113
114 - Set files with the hwloc_dhwd_unit_t type, if you want to treat the
115 files as hwloc dhwd unit data.
116
117
118
119 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
120 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
121 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
122 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
123
124
126 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
127 mappings.
128
129 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
130 process type is permissive.
131
132 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
133 icy modules.
134
135 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
136
137
138 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
139 icy settings.
