6 restorecond_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the restore‐
7 cond processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the restorecond processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The restorecond processes execute with the restorecond_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 restorecond_t
20
21
22
24 The restorecond_t SELinux type can be entered via the restore‐
25 cond_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the restorecond_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/restorecond
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 restorecond policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their re‐
40 storecond processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for restorecond:
43
44 restorecond_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a restorecond_t can be used to make the
47 process type restorecond_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. re‐
54 storecond policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run restorecond 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
72
73
75 The SELinux process type restorecond_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.

132 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
133 type.
134
135 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
136
137 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
138 SELinux restorecond policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
139 their restorecond processes in as secure a method as possible.
140
141 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
142
143 SELinux defines the file context types for the restorecond, if you
144 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
145 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
146 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
147
148 semanage fcontext -a -t restorecond_var_run_t '/srv/myrestorecond_con‐
149 tent(/.*)?'
150 restorecon -R -v /srv/myrestorecond_content
151
152 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
153 match multiple files.
154
155 The following file types are defined for restorecond:
156
157
158
159 restorecond_exec_t
160
161 - Set files with the restorecond_exec_t type, if you want to transition
162 an executable to the restorecond_t domain.
163
164
165
166 restorecond_var_run_t
167
168 - Set files with the restorecond_var_run_t type, if you want to store
169 the restorecond files under the /run or /var/run directory.
170
171
172
173 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
174 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
175 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
176 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
177
178
180 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
181 mappings.
182
183 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
184 process type is permissive.
185
186 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
187 icy modules.
188
189 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
190
191
192 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
193 icy settings.
