NAME
checkpolicy - SELinux policy compiler
SYNOPSIS
checkpolicy [-b] [-d] [-M] [-c policyvers] [-o output_file]
[input_file]
DESCRIPTION
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 Read an existing binary policy file rather than a source pol-
icy.conf file.
-d Enter debug mode after loading the policy.
-M Enable the MLS policy when checking and compiling the policy.
-o filename
Write a binary policy file to the specified filename.
-c policyvers
Specify the policy version, defaults to the latest.
