6 mock_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the mock processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mock processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11 The mock processes execute with the mock_t SELinux type. You can check
13 if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with
14 the -Z qualifier.
15 For example:
17 ps -eZ | grep mock_t
19
23 The mock_t SELinux type can be entered via the mock_exec_t file type.
24 The default entrypoint paths for the mock_t domain are the following:
26 /usr/sbin/mock, /usr/libexec/mock/mock
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 mock policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their mock pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38 The following process types are defined for mock:
40 mock_t, mock_build_t
42 Note: semanage permissive -a mock_t can be used to make the process
44 type mock_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. mock
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run mock with the tightest access possible.
53 If you want to allow mock to read files in home directories, you must
57 turn on the mock_enable_homedirs boolean. Disabled by default.
58 setsebool -P mock_enable_homedirs 1
60 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
64 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
65 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
67
71 The SELinux process type mock_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
72 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
73 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

137 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
138 type.
139 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
141 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
143 SELinux mock policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their mock
144 processes in as secure a method as possible.
145 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
147 SELinux defines the file context types for the mock, if you wanted to
149 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
150 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
151 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
152 semanage fcontext -a -t mock_etc_t '/srv/mymock_content(/.*)?'
154 restorecon -R -v /srv/mymock_content
155 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
157 match multiple files.
158 The following file types are defined for mock:
160 mock_build_exec_t
164 - Set files with the mock_build_exec_t type, if you want to transition
166 an executable to the mock_build_t domain.
167 mock_cache_t
171 - Set files with the mock_cache_t type, if you want to store the files
173 under the /var/cache directory.
174 mock_etc_t
178 - Set files with the mock_etc_t type, if you want to store mock files
180 in the /etc directories.
181 mock_exec_t
185 - Set files with the mock_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
187 executable to the mock_t domain.
188 Paths:
191 /usr/sbin/mock, /usr/libexec/mock/mock
192 mock_tmp_t
195 - Set files with the mock_tmp_t type, if you want to store mock tempo‐
197 rary files in the /tmp directories.
198 mock_var_lib_t
202 - Set files with the mock_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the mock
204 files under the /var/lib directory.
205 mock_var_run_t
209 - Set files with the mock_var_run_t type, if you want to store the mock
211 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
212 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
216 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
217 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
218 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
219
222 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
223 mappings.
224 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
226 process type is permissive.
227 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
229 icy modules.
230 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
232 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
235 icy settings.
