💖 switcheroo_control_selinux — the manual page bestie 💖

okay so bestie, this is the switcher..._selinux(8) page, but make it cute. it's the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the switcheroo_control processes, and honestly? it ate. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

switcheroo_control_selinux — Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the switcheroo_control processes

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like, Security-Enhanced Linux secures the switcheroo_control processes via flexible mandatory access control. periodt. 💅

the switcheroo_control processes execute with the switcheroo_control_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 switcheroo_control_t

🦋 ENTRYPOINTS 🦋

the switcheroo_control_t SELinux type can be entered via the switcheroo_control_exec_t file type.

the default entrypoint paths for the switcheroo_control_t domain are literally these:

/usr/libexec/switcheroo-control

🎀 PROCESS TYPES 🎀

SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system, no cap.

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

policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux switcheroo_control policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their switcheroo_control processes in as secure a method as possible. iconic behavior tbh.

the following process types are defined for switcheroo_control:

switcheroo_control_t

Note: semanage permissive -a switcheroo_control_t can be used to make the process type switcheroo_control_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. so like, it's chill but it's still watching you 👀

🔥 BOOLEANS 🔥

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. switcheroo_control policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run switcheroo_control with the tightest access possible. main character energy fr fr.

if you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched, sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean. enabled by default.

setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1

if you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. enabled by default.

setsebool -P fips_mode 1

💀 MANAGED FILES 💀

the SELinux process type switcheroo_control_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. iykyk.

• cluster_conf_t

/etc/cluster(/.*)?

• cluster_var_lib_t

/var/lib/pcsd(/.*)?
/var/lib/cluster(/.*)?

🌈 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 switcheroo_control policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their switcheroo_control processes in as secure a method as possible. slay. ✨

⭐ STANDARD FILE CONTEXT ⭐

SELinux defines the file context types for the switcheroo_control. 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 switcheroo_control_exec_t '/srv/switcheroo_control/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/myswitcheroo_control_content

Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.

the following file types are defined for switcheroo_control:

• switcheroo_control_exec_t — set files with the switcheroo_control_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the switcheroo_control_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, don't forget that step bestie 🙈

🧚 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 policy modules.

semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans.

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