depmod_selinux(8)     depmod SELinux Policy documentation    depmod_selinux(8)

NAME
       depmod_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux Policy for the depmod pro‐
       cesses

DESCRIPTION
       Security-Enhanced Linux	secures	 the  depmod  processes	 via  flexible
       mandatory access control.

NSSWITCH DOMAIN
FILE CONTEXTS
       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
       type.

       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls

       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to	 these	files.
       SELinux	depmod	policy	is very flexible allowing users to setup their
       depmod processes in as secure a method as possible.

       The following file types are defined for depmod:

       depmod_exec_t

       - Set files with the depmod_exec_t type, if you want to	transition  an
       executable to the depmod_t domain.

       Paths:
	    /sbin/depmod.*, /usr/sbin/depmod.*

       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
       If you want to permanantly change the file context you need to use  the
       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

PROCESS TYPES
       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
       system

       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps

       Policy  governs	the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
       depmod policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup	 their	depmod
       processes in as secure a method as possible.

       The following process types are defined for depmod:

       depmod_t

       Note: semanage permissive -a PROCESS_TYPE can be used to make a process
       type permissive. Permissive process types  are  not  denied  access  by
       SELinux. AVC messages will still be generated.

COMMANDS
       semanage	 fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
       mappings.

       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or	not  a
       process type is permissive.

       semanage	 module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
       icy modules.

       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
       icy settings.
