| == About me ==
| |
| I'm a part of the [[Anaconda|Anaconda]] team at Red Hat. Specifically, my work tends to focus on support for secondary architectures ([[Architectures/s390x|s390x]], [[Architectures/PowerPC|PowerPC]]) and text UI.
| |
|
| |
| Prior to coming to Red Hat, I was a Linux sysadmin at an engineering school. My work there involved service migration/consolidation, automating and customizing kickstart installs, packaging custom RPMs and learning an awful lot about package management, making various tweaks to the security policy, and a small amount of identity management.
| |
|
| |
| Non-work interests of mine include SELinux, modular origami, writing, breakfast, and Star Trek.

| == SELinux and virtualization ==
| |
| A lot of people I know turn SELinux off in order to get virtualization working. Not cool. If you're having problems, these are the minor tweaks I made to SELinux on my F17 system to get things running smoothly. These notes are copied from my workstation runlogs, so excuse the brevity. Hopefully I didn't accidentally leave anything out since I worked pretty quickly. Of course, these notes come with the standard warning of, "It's likely I've done something correct-but-badly and/or inefficiently, so follow these at your own risk."

| * selinux tools; probably don't need all of these, but I like them there
| |
| <code>yum install policycoreutils policycoreutils-newrole policycoreutils-restorecond setools setools-console policycoreutils</code>
| |
| | |
| * by default I make /var about 08GB; unfortunately, libvirt stores images in here, so space quickly becomes an issue for me; no matter, just move things elsewhere..../scratch is just a partition I've carved out for miscellaneous storage--perfect, for my needs here, in other words.

| <pre>
| |
| cd /var/lib
| |
| mv -f libvirt/ /scratch/
| |
| ln -s /scratch/libvirt/ .
| |
| #
| |
| # now fix the selinux fcontext for that dir
| |
| restorecon -R -F /scratch/libvirt
| |
| semanage fcontext -S targeted -a -t var_image_t "/scratch/libvirt(/.*)?"
| |
| semanage fcontext -S targeted -a -t var_image_t "/var/lib/libvirt(/.*)?"
| |
| restorecon -vv -F /scratch/libvirt
| |
| restorecon -vv -F /var/lib/libvirt
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| * change selinux user mapping for my user created at install time
| |
| <code>semanage login -a -s staff_u sbueno</code>
| |
| | |
| * change the default selinux user mapping for future new users (don't want any unconfined_u's running around....)
| |
| <code>semanage login -m -S targeted -s "user_u" -r s0 __default__</code>
| |
| | |
| * time to fulfil virtualization needs
| |
| <code>yum install qemu-kvm libvirt-daemon-kvm qemu-kvm-tools virt-manager x3270-x11 tigervnc</code>
| |
| | |
| * fix some booleans since virtualization is a cluster of AVCs by default
| |
| <pre>
| |
| # HINT: you can do this via setsebool -P also, but you can only change one
| |
| # boolean at a time that way, meaning the policy will need to be recompiled
| |
| # for every single boolean you want to flip; do it this way and only recompile
| |
| # the policy once
| |
| semanage -S targeted -i - << EOF
| |
| boolean -m --on staff_use_svirt
| |
| boolean -m --on virt_use_execmem
| |
| boolean -m --on virt_use_nfs
| |
| boolean -m --on virt_use_sysfs
| |
| boolean -m --on virt_use_usb
| |
| boolean -m --on virt_use_xserver
| |
| EOF
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| * If your SELinux user mapping changed (ex. from user_u to staff_u), you probably want to log out and back in again. Aside from that, you should be good to go.
