Subject: [PATCH] selinux(8,5): Describe fcontext regular expressions
|

|
Describe which type of regular expression is used in file context
|
||
|
|
definitions and which flags are in effect.
|

from policy sources. semanage fcontext is used to manage the default

+FILE_SPEC may contain either a fully qualified path,
|
||
|
|
+or a Perl compatible regular expression (PCRE),
|
||
|
|
+describing fully qualified path(s). The only PCRE flag in use is PCRE2_DOTALL,
|
||
|
|
+which causes a wildcard '.' to match anything, including a new line.
|
||
|
|
+Strings representing paths are processed as bytes (as opposed to Unicode),
|
||
|
|
+meaning that non-ASCII characters are not matched by a single wildcard.
|
||
|
|
+
|
||
|
|
+Note, that file context definitions specified using 'semanage fcontext'
|
||
|
|
+(i.e. local file context modifications stored in file_contexts.local)
|
||
|
|
+have higher priority than those specified in policy modules.
|
||
|
|
+This means that whenever a match for given file path is found in
|
||
|
|
+file_contexts.local, no other file context definitions are considered.
|
||
|
|
+Entries in file_contexts.local are processed from most recent one to the oldest,
|
||
|
|
+with first match being used (as opposed to the most specific match,
|
||
|
|
+which is used when matching other file context definitions).
|
||
|
|
+All regular expressions should therefore be as specific as possible,
|
||
|
|
+to avoid unintentionally impacting other parts of the filesystem.
