This chapter covers object classes and permissions defined in SELinux. We discuss the policy language statements that define object classes and permissions the kernel supports and provide an overview of the kernel object classes standard in a SELinux system. Appendix C, "Object Classes and Permissions," includes a detailed listing of each standard SELinux object class and its associated permissions.
