Selinux policy for beanstalkd

[Ruben Kerkhof]

Hi list,

I haven't written an selinux module before, so to start simple I
created one for beanstalkd, since we use this a lot.

I'm running into one issue though:

beanstalkd has the ability to create binary log files in
/var/lib/beanstalkd/binlog.
This directory doesn't exist by default, but it is created in the init script.

Starting up beanstalkd creates an AVC denial:
type=AVC msg=audit(1263749015.682:199): avc:  denied  { create } for
pid=2163 comm="mkdir" name="beanstalkd"
scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0
tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:var_lib_t:s0 tclass=dir
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1263749015.682:199): arch=c000003e syscall=83
success=no exit=-13 a0=7fff4e491f7b a1=1ed a2=7fff4e490770
a3=7fff4e4902c0 items=0 ppid=2156 pid=2163 auid=500 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0
suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=pts0 ses=6 comm="mkdir"
exe="/bin/mkdir" subj=unconfined_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 key=(null)

How do I allow the init script to do mkdir -p /var/lib/beanstalkd/binlog?

Here's my policy:

[root at ruben ~]# cat beanstalkd.fc
/usr/bin/beanstalkd             --
gen_context(system_u:object_r:beanstalkd_exec_t,s0)
/etc/rc\.d/init\.d/beanstalkd   --
gen_context(system_u:object_r:beanstalkd_initrc_exec_t,s0)
/var/lib/beanstalkd(/.*)?
gen_context(system_u:object_r:beanstalkd_var_lib_t,s0)

[root at ruben ~]# cat beanstalkd.te
