7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <selinux/selinux.h>
10
11       int security_check_context(const char *con);
12
13       int security_check_context_raw(const char *con);
14

DESCRIPTION

16       security_check_context()  returns  0 if SELinux is running and the con‐
17       text is valid, otherwise it returns -1.
18
19       security_check_context_raw()       behaves        identically        to
20       security_check_context() but does not perform context translation.
