6 virtlogd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the virtlogd pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the virtlogd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The virtlogd processes execute with the virtlogd_t SELinux type. You
14 can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps com‐
15 mand with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep virtlogd_t
20
21
22
24 The virtlogd_t SELinux type can be entered via the virtlogd_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the virtlogd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/virtlogd, /usr/sbin/virtlockd
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 virtlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their virtlogd
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for virtlogd:
43
44 virtlogd_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a virtlogd_t can be used to make the process
47 type virtlogd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. virt‐
54 logd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run virtlogd with the tightest access
56 possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched,
61 sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean.
62 Enabled by default.
63
64 setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
69 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72
73
74
75 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
76 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allow virtlockd read and lock block devices, you must
83 turn on the virt_lockd_blk_devs boolean. Disabled by default.
84
85 setsebool -P virt_lockd_blk_devs 1
86
87
88
89 If you want to allow confined virtual guests to manage nfs files, you
90 must turn on the virt_use_nfs boolean. Disabled by default.
91
92 setsebool -P virt_use_nfs 1
93
94
95
97 The SELinux process type virtlogd_t can manage files labeled with the
98 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
99 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

189 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
190 type.
191
192 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
193
194 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
195 SELinux virtlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
196 virtlogd processes in as secure a method as possible.
197
198 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
199
200 SELinux defines the file context types for the virtlogd, if you wanted
201 to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to exe‐
202 cute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use
203 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
204
205 semanage fcontext -a -t virtlogd_exec_t '/srv/virtlogd/content(/.*)?'
206 restorecon -R -v /srv/myvirtlogd_content
207
208 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
209 match multiple files.
210
211 The following file types are defined for virtlogd:
212
213
214
215 virtlogd_etc_t
216
217 - Set files with the virtlogd_etc_t type, if you want to store virtlogd
218 files in the /etc directories.
219
220
221
222 virtlogd_exec_t
223
224 - Set files with the virtlogd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
225 executable to the virtlogd_t domain.
226
227
228 Paths:
229 /usr/sbin/virtlogd, /usr/sbin/virtlockd
230
231
232 virtlogd_initrc_exec_t
233
234 - Set files with the virtlogd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
235 sition an executable to the virtlogd_initrc_t domain.
236
237
238
239 virtlogd_unit_file_t
240
241 - Set files with the virtlogd_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
242 the files as virtlogd unit content.
243
244
245
246 virtlogd_var_run_t
247
248 - Set files with the virtlogd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
249 virtlogd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
250
251
252 Paths:
253 /var/run/virtlogd.pid, /var/run/libvirt/virtlogd-sock
254
255
256 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
257 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
258 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
259 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
260
261
263 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
264 mappings.
265
266 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
267 process type is permissive.
268
269 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
270 icy modules.
271
272 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
273
274
275 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
276 icy settings.
