The documentation is atrocious, and usually won't say things like "label your program unconfined_t" because they don't want you to do that ever. Also, tutorials -- even RedHat's -- are always some variation of "here's how to use audit2allow." That is very much not what I want. I want to create a reusable policy that I can apply to many hosts via Ansible or as part of an RPM package I created. I've never been able to figure out how to do that because it is always drowned out by SEO spam that barely scratches the surface of practical usage.

It's painfully obvious to me that the people who create SELinux and its documentation live in some alternate universe where they don't do anything the way I do, so I just turn it off.

Not excusing that state of documentation by any means, but a good starting point for understanding the actual policy for me was "SELinux System Administration" (ISBN 978-1-80020-147-7).

It won't carry you all the way to applying policies via Ansible or RPM packages, but definitely took me from running random audit2allow commands to taking a more holistic view of my SELinux policies.

It also looks like a long read but if you fast-forward through chapters that aren't relevant to you (looking at you IPSEC) it isn't such a slog.
