"NAME"
sepol_check_context - Check the validity of a security context against a binary policy.
"SYNOPSIS"
#include <sepol/sepol.h> "int sepol_check_context(const char *" context ");" "int sepol_set_policydb_from_file(FILE *" fp ");"
"DESCRIPTION"
sepol_check_context checks the validity of a security context against a binary policy
previously loaded from a file via
sepol_set_policydb_from_file. It is used by
setfiles -c to validate a file contexts configuration against the binary policy
upon policy builds. For validating a context against the active
policy on a SELinux system, use
security_check_context from libselinux instead.
"RETURN VALUE"
Returns 0 on success or -1 with errno set otherwise.
