Defined Type: selinux::fcontext

Defined in:
manifests/fcontext.pp

Overview

For fcontext equivalences, see selinux::fcontext::equivalence

Examples:

Add a file-context for mysql log files at non standard location

selinux::fcontext{'set-mysql-log-context':
  seltype  => 'mysqld_log_t',
  pathspec => '/u01/log/mysql(/.*)?',
}

Add a file-context only for directory types

selinux::fcontext{'/u/users/[^/]*':
  filetype => 'd',
  seltype  => 'user_home_dir_t' ,
}

Parameters:

  • ensure (Enum['absent', 'present']) (defaults to: 'present') —

    The desired state of the resource. Default: ‘present’

  • seltype (Optional[String]) (defaults to: undef) —

    String A particular SELinux type, like “mysqld_log_t”

  • seluser (Optional[String]) (defaults to: undef) —

    String A particular SELinux user, like “sysadm_u”

  • pathspec (String) (defaults to: $title) —

    String An semanage fcontext-formatted path specification, like “/var/log/mysql(/.*)?”. Defaults to title

  • filetype (Optional[String]) (defaults to: 'a') —

    File type the context applies to (i.e. regular file, directory, block device, all files, etc.)

    • Types:

      - a = all files (default value if not restricting filetype)
- f = regular file
- d = directory
- c = character device
- b = block device
- s = socket
- l = symbolic link
- p = named pipe
