6 cachefiles_kernel_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 cachefiles_kernel processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the cachefiles_kernel processes via
11 flexible mandatory access control.
12
13 The cachefiles_kernel processes execute with the cachefiles_kernel_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep cachefiles_kernel_t
20
21
22
24 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
25 system
26
27 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
28
29 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
30 cachefiles_kernel policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
31 cachefiles_kernel processes in as secure a method as possible.
32
33 The following process types are defined for cachefiles_kernel:
34
35 cachefiles_kernel_t
36
37 Note: semanage permissive -a cachefiles_kernel_t can be used to make
38 the process type cachefiles_kernel_t permissive. SELinux does not deny
39 access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) mes‐
40 sages are still generated.
41
42
44 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
45 cachefiles_kernel policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans
46 that allow you to manipulate the policy and run cachefiles_kernel with
47 the tightest access possible.

50
51 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
52 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.

59 The SELinux process type cachefiles_kernel_t can manage files labeled
60 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
61 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
62 permissions.
63
64 cachefiles_var_t
65
66 /var/fscache(/.*)?
67 /var/cache/fscache(/.*)?
68
69
71 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
72 mappings.
73
74 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
75 process type is permissive.
76
77 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
78 icy modules.
79
80 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
81
82
83 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
84 icy settings.
