avc_compute_create, avc_compute_member - obtain SELinux label for new object
Contents
Description
avc_compute_create() is used to compute a SID to use for labeling a new object in a particular class
based on a SID pair. This call is identical to security_compute_create(), but does not require
converting from userspace SID's to contexts and back again.
avc_compute_member() is used to compute a SID to use for labeling a polyinstantiated object instance of a
particular class based on a SID pair. This call is identical to security_compute_member(), but does not
require converting from userspace SID's to contexts and back again.
These functions return a SID for the computed context in the memory referenced by sid.
Errors
EINVAL The tclass and/or the security contexts referenced by ssid and tsid are not recognized by the
currently loaded policy.
ENOMEM An attempt to allocate memory failed.
Name
avc_compute_create, avc_compute_member - obtain SELinux label for new object
Return Value
On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set appropriately.
