NAME
       sepol_check_context  - Check the validity of a security context against
       a binary policy.
SYNOPSIS
       #include <sepol/sepol.h>
       int sepol_check_context(const char *context);
       int sepol_set_policydb_from_file(FILE *fp);

DESCRIPTION
       sepol_check_context checks the validity of a security context against a
       binary  policy  previously  loaded  from  a  file  via  sepol_set_poli-
       cydb_from_file.  It is used by setfiles -c to validate a file  contexts
       configuration  against the binary policy upon policy builds.  For vali-
       dating a context against the active policy on  a  SELinux  system,  use
       security_check_context from libselinux instead.

RETURN VALUE
       Returns 0 on success or -1 with errno set otherwise.
