setfilecon, fsetfilecon, lsetfilecon - set SELinux security context of a file

setfilecon() sets the security context of the file system object.

       lsetfilecon()  is  identical  to setfilecon, except in the case of a symbolic link, where the link itself
       has it's context set, not the file that it refers to.

       fsetfilecon() is identical to setfilecon, only the open file  pointed  to  by  filedes  (as  returned  by
       open(2))  has  it's  context  set  in  place  of  path.  Since libselinux 3.4 a file opened via O_PATH is
       supported.

       setfilecon_raw(),  lsetfilecon_raw(),  and  fsetfilecon_raw()  behave  identically   to   their   non-raw
       counterparts but do not perform context translation.

       If  there is insufficient space remaining to store the extended attribute, errno is set to either ENOSPC,
       or EDQUOT if quota enforcement was the cause.

       If extended attributes are not supported by the filesystem, or are disabled, errno is set to ENOTSUP.

       The errors documented for the stat(2) system call are also applicable here.

       On success, zero is returned. On failure, -1 is returned and errno is set appropriately.
