NAME
       getseuserbyname  -  get  SELinux  username  and level for a given Linux
       username
SYNOPSIS
       #include <selinux/selinux.h>
       int getseuserbyname(const char  *linuxuser,  char  **selinuxuser,  char
       **level);
DESCRIPTION
       getseuserbyname()  retrieves  the  SELinux  username and security level
       associated with a given Linux username.  The SELinux username and secu-
       rity  level  can  then  be passed to other libselinux functions such as
       get_ordered_context_list_with_level(3)                              and
       get_default_context_with_level(3).
       The  returned  SELinux username and level should be freed by the caller
       using free.
RETURN VALUE
       On success, 0 is returned.  On failure, -1 is returned and errno is set
       appropriately.
       The  errors  documented for the stat(2) system call are also applicable
       here.
