NAME

6       kafs_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the kafs processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced  Linux secures the kafs processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The kafs processes execute with the kafs_t SELinux type. You can  check
13       if  you  have  these processes running by executing the ps command with
14       the -Z qualifier.
15
16       For example:
17
18       ps -eZ | grep kafs_t

21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The kafs_t SELinux type can be entered via the kafs_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the kafs_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/libexec/kafs-dns
28

PROCESS TYPES

30       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31       system
32
33       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
36       kafs policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their  kafs  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for kafs:
40
41       kafs_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  kafs_t can be used to make the process
44       type kafs_t permissive. SELinux does  not  deny  access  to  permissive
45       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46       ated.

BOOLEANS

50       SELinux policy is customizable based on least  access  required.   kafs
51       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52       manipulate the policy and run kafs with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
57       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
58
59       setsebool -P fips_mode 1

FILE CONTEXTS

64       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
65       type.
66
67       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
68
69       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
70       SELinux kafs policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their kafs
71       processes in as secure a method as possible.
72
73       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
74
75       SELinux defines the file context types for the kafs, if you  wanted  to
76       store  files with these types in a different paths, you need to execute
77       the semanage command to specify alternate labeling  and  then  use  re‐
78       storecon to put the labels on disk.
79
80       semanage fcontext -a -t kafs_exec_t '/srv/kafs/content(/.*)?'
81       restorecon -R -v /srv/mykafs_content
82
83       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
84       match multiple files.
85
86       The following file types are defined for kafs:
87
88
89
90       kafs_exec_t
91
92       - Set files with the kafs_exec_t type, if you want to transition an ex‐
93       ecutable to the kafs_t domain.
94
95
96
97       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
98       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
99       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
100       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

COMMANDS

104       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
105       mappings.
106
107       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
108       process type is permissive.
109
110       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
111       icy modules.
112
113       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
114
115
116       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
117       icy settings.
