okay so bestie, you already know the title freqset_selinux(8) is literally at the top of this whole thing, but the vibe of this page is Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the freqset processes β€” and we're about to get into it πŸ’…βœ¨

✨ NAME ✨

freqset_selinux β€” Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the freqset processes 🫢

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the freqset processes via flexible mandatory access control. No cap, that's the whole mood.

The freqset processes execute with the freqset_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier.

For example:

ps -eZ | grep freqset_t

πŸ¦‹ ENTRYPOINTS πŸ¦‹

The freqset_t SELinux type can be entered via the freqset_exec_t file type. That's the entrance, bestie πŸšͺ✨

The default entrypoint paths for the freqset_t domain are the following:

/usr/lib/enlightenment/modules/cpufreq/linux-gnu-[^/]*/freqset

Keep that path exactly as it is, okay? It's giving very specific regex energy and we're not touching it πŸ”₯

πŸ‘‘ PROCESS TYPES πŸ‘‘

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 freqset policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their freqset processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following process types are defined for freqset:

  • freqset_t
Note: semanage permissive -a freqset_t can be used to make the process type freqset_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. Like, it stops blocking stuff but it still tattles πŸ˜­πŸ“£

πŸ’– MANAGED FILES πŸ’–

The SELinux process type freqset_t can manage files labeled with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

  • sysfs_t β€” default path:
/sys(/.*)?

🌈 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 freqset policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their freqset processes in as secure a method as possible.

πŸŽ€ STANDARD FILE CONTEXT πŸŽ€

SELinux defines the file context types for the freqset, if you wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk.

semanage fcontext -a -t freqset_exec_t '/srv/freqset/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/myfreqset_content

Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. It's lowkey obsessed with regex, iykyk 😌

The following file types are defined for freqset:

  • freqset_exec_t β€” Set files with the freqset_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the freqset_t domain.
Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command. If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling database. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels. So like, chcon is a quick little temporary slay, but semanage fcontext plus restorecon is the permanent main character move πŸ‘‘βœ¨

πŸ’€ COMMANDS πŸ’€

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 policy modules.

system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
