49.7.2. Where is the Policy?

/etc/selinux/targeted/ — this is the root directory for the targeted policy, and contains the binary tree.

/etc/selinux/targeted/policy/ — this is the location of the binary policy file policy.<xx>. In this guide, the variable SELINUX_POLICY is used for this directory.

/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/ — this is the location of the security context information and configuration files, which are used during runtime by various applications.

/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/ — contains the default contexts for the entire file system. This is referenced by restorecon when performing relabeling operations.

/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/users/ — in the targeted policy, only the root file is in this directory. These files are used for determining context when a user logs in. For example, for the root user, the context is user_u:system_r:unconfined_t.

/etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/booleans* — this is where the runtime Booleans are configured.
