CHECKPOLICY(8)              System Manager's Manual             CHECKPOLICY(8)

NAME
       checkpolicy - SELinux policy compiler
SYNOPSIS
       checkpolicy  [-b]  [-C]  [-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,--binary
              Read an existing binary policy file rather than  a  source  pol-
              icy.conf file.
       -C,--cil
              Write CIL policy file rather than binary policy 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 permis-
              sions (deny, allow or reject).
       -V,--version
              Show version information.
       -h,--help
              Show usage information.
