"NAME"
set_matchpathcon_flags, set_matchpathcon_invalidcon, set_matchpathcon_printf - set flags controlling the operation of matchpathcon or matchpathcon_index and configure the behaviour of validity checking and error displaying .
"SYNOPSIS"
#include <selinux/selinux.h> "void set_matchpathcon_flags(unsigned int " flags ");" "void set_matchpathcon_invalidcon(int (*" f ")(const char *" path ", unsigned " lineno ", char *" context "));" "void set_matchpathcon_printf(void (*" f ")(const char *" fmt ", ...));" .
"DESCRIPTION"
set_matchpathcon_flags () sets the flags controlling the operation of matchpathcon_init (3) and subsequently matchpathcon_index (3) or matchpathcon (3). If the MATCHPATHCON_BASEONLY flag is set, then only the base file contexts configuration file will be processed, not any dynamically generated entries or local customizations. set_matchpathcon_invalidcon () sets the function used by matchpathcon_init (3) when checking the validity of a context in the file contexts configuration. If not set, then this defaults to a test based on security_check_context (3), which checks validity against the active policy on a SELinux system. This can be set to instead perform checking based on a binary policy file, e.g. using sepol_check_context (3), as is done by setfiles -c. The function is also responsible for reporting any such error, and may include the path and lineno in such error messages. set_matchpathcon_printf () sets the function used by matchpathcon_init (3) when displaying errors about the file contexts configuration. If not set, then this defaults to fprintf(stderr, fmt, ...). This can be set to redirect error reporting to a different destination. .
"RETURN VALUE"
Returns zero on success or -1 otherwise. .
