NAME

6       mysqld_safe_selinux   -   Security   Enhanced   Linux  Policy  for  the
7       mysqld_safe processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mysqld_safe processes via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  mysqld_safe processes execute with the mysqld_safe_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 mysqld_safe_t

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The    mysqld_safe_t    SELinux   type   can   be   entered   via   the
25       mysqld_safe_exec_t file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the mysqld_safe_t domain are the  fol‐
28       lowing:
29
30       /usr/bin/mysqld_safe, /usr/libexec/mysqld_safe-scl-helper
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       mysqld_safe  policy  is  very  flexible  allowing  users to setup their
40       mysqld_safe processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for mysqld_safe:
43
44       mysqld_safe_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a mysqld_safe_t can  be  used  to  make  the
47       process  type mysqld_safe_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.
54       mysqld_safe policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans  that
55       allow  you to manipulate the policy and run mysqld_safe with the tight‐
56       est 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
67       If  you  want  to  allow  system  to run with NIS, you must turn on the
68       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
71

MANAGED FILES

75       The SELinux process type mysqld_safe_t can manage  files  labeled  with
76       the  following  file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for
77       these file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have  DAC  per‐
78       missions.

82            /etc/cluster(/.*)?

FILE CONTEXTS

134       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
135       type.
136
137       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
138
139       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
140       SELinux  mysqld_safe  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to setup
141       their mysqld_safe processes in as secure a method as possible.
142
143       The following file types are defined for mysqld_safe:
144
145
146
147       mysqld_safe_exec_t
148
149       - Set files with the mysqld_safe_exec_t type, if you want to transition
150       an executable to the mysqld_safe_t domain.
151
152
153       Paths:
154            /usr/bin/mysqld_safe, /usr/libexec/mysqld_safe-scl-helper
155
156
157       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
158       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
159       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
160       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
161
162

COMMANDS

164       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
165       mappings.
166
167       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
168       process type is permissive.
169
170       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
171       icy modules.
172
173       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
174
175
176       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
177       icy settings.
