matchpathcon_checkmatches, matchpathcon_filespec_add, matchpath‐
con_filespec_destroy, matchpathcon_filespec_eval - check and report
whether any specification index has no matches with any inode. Mainte‐
nance and statistics on inode associations
SYNOPSIS
#include <selinux/selinux.h>
void matchpathcon_checkmatches(char *str);
int matchpathcon_filespec_add(ino_t ino, int specind, const char
*file);
void matchpathcon_filespec_destroy(void);
void matchpathcon_filespec_eval(void);
DESCRIPTIONmatchpathcon_checkmatches() checks whether any specification has no
matches and reports them. The str argument is used as a prefix for any
warning messages.
matchpathcon_filespec_add() maintains an association between an inode
ino and a specification index specind, and checks whether a conflicting
specification is already associated with the same inode (e.g. due to
multiple hard links). If so, then it uses the latter of the two speci‐
fications based on their order in the file context configuration.
Returns the specification index used or -1 on error.
matchpathcon_filespec_destroy() destroys any inode associations that
have been added, e.g. to restart for a new filesystem.
matchpathcon_filespec_eval() displays statistics on the hash table
usage for the inode associations.
RETURN VALUE
Returns zero on success or -1 otherwise.
