16 setroubleshootd is the dbus service in the setroubleshoot system.
17 setroubleshoot is used to diagnose SELinux denials and attempts to pro‐
18 vide user friendly explanations for a SELinux denial (e.g. AVC) and
19 recommendations for how one might adjust the system to prevent the
20 denial in the future.
21
22 In a standard configuration setroubleshoot is composed of two compo‐
23 nents, sealert and setroubleshootd.
24
25 setroubleshootd is a system daemon which runs under setroubleshoot user
26 and listens for audit events emitted from the kernel related to
27 SELinux. When the setroubleshootd daemon sees an SELinux AVC denial it
28 runs a series of analysis plugins which examines the audit data related
29 to the AVC. It records the results of the analysis and signals any
30 clients which have attached to the setroubleshootd daemon that a new
31 alert has been seen.
