DESCRIPTION

18       sepol_check_context checks the validity of a security context against a
19       binary  policy  previously  loaded  from  a  file  via  sepol_set_poli‐
20       cydb_from_file.  It is used by setfiles -c to validate a file  contexts
21       configuration  against the binary policy upon policy builds.  For vali‐
22       dating a context against the active policy on  a  SELinux  system,  use
23       security_check_context from libselinux instead.
