This manual page describes the
checkpolicy
command.
checkpolicy
is a program that checks and compiles a SELinux security policy configuration
into a binary representation that can be loaded into the kernel. If no
input file name is specified, checkpolicy will attempt to read from
policy.conf or policy, depending on whether the -b flag is specified.
OPTIONS
-b,--binary
Read an existing binary policy file rather than a source policy.conf file.
-d,--debug
Enter debug mode after loading the policy.
-M,--mls
Enable the MLS policy when checking and compiling the policy.
-o,--output filename
Write a binary policy file to the specified filename.
-c policyvers
Specify the policy version, defaults to the latest.
-t,--target
Specify the target platform (selinux or xen).
-U,--handle-unknown <action>
Specify how the kernel should handle unknown classes or permissions (deny, allow or reject).
