I did not know that systemd would, with specific settings, create a
private mysql data dir.
I would try the var_lib_t approach more widely.
Thanks.
Mmm, it seems labeling the link as var_lib_t is not always sufficient.
Doing a mongodb test relocation from /var/lib/mongodb to /zzz/mongodb
the service does not start, even if I can see the link having var_lib_t
label:
# ls -alZ /var/lib/
...
lrwxrwxrwx. root root unconfined_u:object_r:var_lib_t:s0 mongodb
-> /zzz/mongodb
Indeed, I can see the following in /var/log/audit:
type=AVC msg=audit(1596222151.576:253): avc: denied { read } for
pid=4313 comm="mongod" name="mongodb" dev="dm-0" ino=33673444
scontext=system_u:system_r:mongod_t:s0
tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:var_lib_t:s0 tclass=lnk_file permissive=0
Relabeling the synlink with its "native" label via restorecon -RF
produce the following:
# ls -alZ /var/lib/
...
lrwxrwxrwx. root root system_u:object_r:mongod_var_lib_t:s0
mongodb -> /zzz/mongodb
But the service again does not start, with the followin logs:
type=AVC msg=audit(1596222240.363:257): avc: denied { read } for
pid=4344 comm="mongod" name="mongodb" dev="dm-0" ino=33673444
scontext=system_u:system_r:mongod_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:mongod_var_lib_t:s0 tclass=lnk_file
permissive=0
What would be the best approach in this case? I know that one approach
would be to use a bind mount, but I would like to avoid it because:
a) it has bad filesystem discoverably (you had to search for bind mount
explicitly, while a symlink is visible even with a simple ls)
b) I need to setup a fcontext <<None>> for the actual dir which is
bind-mounted (otherwise, a "restorecon -RF /zzz/" will cause issues, by
relabeling any files with default_t)
I am open to suggestions...
Thanks.
