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 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 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep restorecond_t
20
24 The restorecond_t SELinux type can be entered via the restore‐
25 cond_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the restorecond_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /usr/sbin/restorecond
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 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 The following process types are defined for restorecond:
43 restorecond_t
45 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
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 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 setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
65 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 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
76 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
77 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1

83 The SELinux process type restorecond_t can manage files labeled with
84 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
85 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
86 missions.

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