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.
-b,--binary
Read an existing binary policy file rather than a source
policy.conf file.
-C,--cil
Write CIL policy file rather than binary policy file.
-d,--debug
Enter debug mode after loading the policy.
-F,--conf
Write policy.conf file rather than binary policy file. Can
only be used with binary policy file.
-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).
-V,--version
Show version information.
-h,--help
Show usage information.
