Doc Text:
The /etc/my.cnf.d/ directory previously had only the default etc_t SELinux context defined, which was not sufficient. A more specific context for the /etc/my.cnf.d/*cnf configuration files has been added to the mysql SELinux policy, thus fixing this bug.

Description Honza Horak 2015-03-20 06:02:22 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1203989 +++

Description of problem:
/etc/my.cnf configuration file for mysql/mariadb has context mysqld_etc_t, but other config files under /etc/my.cnf.d/ have only etc_t.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# rpm -q selinux-policy
selinux-policy-3.13.1-105.3.fc21.noarch

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install mariadb
2. ls -Z /etc/my.cnf.d/*cnf

Actual results:
#> ls -Z /etc/my.cnf.d/*cnf
-rw-r--r--. root root system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0       /etc/my.cnf.d/client.cnf
-rw-r--r--. root root system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0       /etc/my.cnf.d/mysql-clients.cnf
-rw-r--r--. root root system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0       /etc/my.cnf.d/server.cnf
-rw-r--r--. root root system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0       /etc/my.cnf.d/tokudb.cnf


Expected results:
#> ls -Z /etc/my.cnf.d/*cnf
-rw-r--r--. root root system_u:object_r:mysqld_etc_t:s0       /etc/my.cnf.d/client.cnf
-rw-r--r--. root root system_u:object_r:mysqld_etc_t:s0       /etc/my.cnf.d/mysql-clients.cnf
-rw-r--r--. root root system_u:object_r:mysqld_etc_t:s0       /etc/my.cnf.d/server.cnf
-rw-r--r--. root root system_u:object_r:mysqld_etc_t:s0       /etc/my.cnf.d/tokudb.cnf
