Use
sepolicy generate to generate an SELinux policy Module.
sepolicy generate will create 5 files.
When specifying a
confined application you must specify a path.
sepolicy generate will use the rpm payload of the application along
with
nm -D APPLICATION to help it generate types and policy rules for
your policy files.
Type Enforcing File NAME.te
This file can be used to define all the types rules for a particular domain.
Note: Policy generated by
sepolicy generate will automatically add
a permissive DOMAIN to your te file. When you are satisfied that your policy
works, you need to remove the permissive line from the te file to run your
domain in enforcing mode.
Interface File NAME.if
This file defines the interfaces for the types generated in the te file, which
can be used by other policy domains.
File Context NAME.fc
This file defines the default file context for the system, it takes the file
types created in the te file and associates file paths to the types. Tools
like restorecon and RPM will use these paths to put down labels.
RPM Spec File NAME_selinux.spec
This file is an RPM SPEC file that can be used to install the SELinux policy on
to machines and setup the labeling. The spec file also installs the interface
file and a man page describing the policy. You can use
sepolicy manpage -d
NAME to generate the man page.
Shell File NAME.sh
This is a helper shell script to compile, install and fix the labeling on your
test system. It will also generate a man page based on the installed policy,
and compile and build an RPM suitable to be installed on other machines
If a generate is possible, this tool will print out all generate paths from the
source domain to the target domain
- -h, --help
- Display help message

(Default to current working directory ) optional arguments:
- -r, --role
- Enter role(s) to which this admin user will
transition.
- -t, --type
- Enter type(s) for which you will generate new definition
and rule(s)
- -u, --user
- SELinux user(s) which will transition to this domain
- -w, --writepath
- Path(s) which the confined processes need to write
- -a, --admin
- Domain(s) which the confined admin will administrate

Created the following files:
rwhod.te # Type Enforcement file
rwhod.if # Interface file
rwhod.fc # File Contexts file
rwhod_selinux.spec # Spec file
