NAME
selinux_restorecon_xattr - manage default security.sehash extended at-
tribute entries added by selinux_restorecon(3), setfiles(8) or restore-
con(8).
SYNOPSIS
#include <selinux/restorecon.h>
int selinux_restorecon_xattr(const char *pathname,
unsigned int xattr_flags,
struct dir_xattr ***xattr_list);
DESCRIPTION
selinux_restorecon_xattr() returns a linked list of dir_xattr struc-
tures containing information described below based on:
pathname containing a directory tree to be searched for secu-
rity.sehash extended attribute entries.
xattr_flags contains options as follows:
SELINUX_RESTORECON_XATTR_RECURSE recursively descend di-
rectories.
SELINUX_RESTORECON_XATTR_DELETE_NONMATCH_DIGESTS delete
non-matching digests from each directory in pathname.
SELINUX_RESTORECON_XATTR_DELETE_ALL_DIGESTS delete all
digests from each directory in pathname.
SELINUX_RESTORECON_XATTR_IGNORE_MOUNTS do not read
/proc/mounts to obtain a list of non-seclabel mounts to
be excluded from the search.
Setting SELINUX_RESTORECON_XATTR_IGNORE_MOUNTS is useful
where there is a non-seclabel fs mounted with a seclabel
fs mounted on a directory below this.
xattr_list is the returned pointer to a linked list of dir_xattr
structures, each containing the following information:
struct dir_xattr {
char *directory;
char *digest; /* Printable hex encoded string */
enum digest_result result;
struct dir_xattr *next;
};
The result entry is enumerated as follows:
enum digest_result {
MATCH = 0,
NOMATCH,
DELETED_MATCH,
DELETED_NOMATCH,
ERROR
};
xattr_list must be set to NULL before calling selinux_restore-
con_xattr(3). The caller is responsible for freeing the re-
turned xattr_list entries in the linked list.
See the NOTES section for more information.
RETURN VALUE
On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned and errno is
set appropriately.
NOTES
1. By default selinux_restorecon_xattr(3) will use the default set of
specfiles described in files_contexts(5) to calculate the SHA1 di-
gests to be used for comparison. To change this default behavior
selabel_open(3) must be called specifying the required SELA-
BEL_OPT_PATH and setting the SELABEL_OPT_DIGEST option to a non-
NULL value. selinux_restorecon_set_sehandle(3) is then called to
set the handle to be used by selinux_restorecon_xattr(3).
2. By default selinux_restorecon_xattr(3) reads /proc/mounts to obtain
a list of non-seclabel mounts to be excluded from searches unless
the SELINUX_RESTORECON_XATTR_IGNORE_MOUNTS flag has been set.
3. RAMFS and TMPFS filesystems do not support the security.sehash ex-
tended attribute and are automatically excluded from searches.
4. By default stderr is used to log output messages and errors. This
may be changed by calling selinux_set_callback(3) with the
SELINUX_CB_LOG type option.
