NAME

       seinfo - SELinux policy query tool

SYNOPSIS

       seinfo [OPTIONS] [EXPRESSION] [POLICY ...]

DESCRIPTION

       seinfo allows the user to query the components of a SELinux policy.

POLICY

       seinfo supports loading a SELinux policy in one of four formats.

       source A  single  text file containing policy source for versions 12 through 21. This file
              is usually named policy.conf.

       binary A single file containing a monolithic kernel binary policy for versions 15  through
              21. This file is usually named by version - for example, policy.20.

       modular
              A  list  of  policy  packages  each  containing a loadable policy module. The first
              module listed must be a base module.

       policy list
              A single text file containing all the information needed to load a policy,  usually
              exported by SETools graphical utilities.

       If  no policy file is provided, seinfo will search for the system default policy: checking
       first for a source policy,  next  for  a  binary  policy  matching  the  running  kernel's
       preferred  version,  and finally for the highest version that can be found.  In the latter
       case, the policy will be downgraded to match the running system.   If  no  policy  can  be
       found, seinfo will print an error message and exit.

EXPRESSIONS

       One  or  more  of  the  following  component types can be queried. Each option may only be
       specified once.  If an option is provided multiple times, the last instance will be  used.
       Some components support the -x flag to print expanded information about that component; if
       a particular component specified does not support expanded information, the flag  will  be
       ignored  for  that  component  (see  -x  below).  If  no  expressions are provided, policy
       statistics will be printed (see --stats below).

       -c[NAME], --class[=NAME]
              Print a list of object classes or, if NAME is  provided,  print  the  object  class
              NAME.  With -x, print a list of permissions for each displayed object class.

       --sensitivity[=NAME]
              Print  a list of sensitivities or, if NAME is provided, print the sensitivity NAME.
              With -x, print the corresponding level statement for each displayed sensitivity.

       --category[=NAME]
              Print a list of categories or, if NAME is provided, print the category NAME.   With
              -x,  print  a  list  of  sensitivities  with  which  each displayed category may be
              associated.

       -t[NAME], --type[=NAME]
              Print a list of types  (not  including  aliases  or  attributes)  or,  if  NAME  is
              provided,  print  the type NAME.  With -x, print a list of attributes which include
              each displayed type.

       -a[NAME], --attribute[=NAME]
              Print a list of type attributes or, if NAME is provided, print the attribute  NAME.
              With -x, print a list of types assigned to each displayed attribute.

       -r[NAME], --role[=NAME]
              Print a list of roles or, if NAME is provided, print the role NAME.  With -x, print
              a list of types assigned to each displayed role.

       -u[NAME], --user[=NAME]
              Print a list of users or, if NAME is provided, print the user NAME.  With -x, print
              a list of roles assigned to each displayed user.

       -b[NAME], --bool[=NAME]
              Print  a  list  of  conditional booleans or, if NAME is provided, print the boolean
              NAME.  With -x, print the default state of each displayed conditional boolean.

       --initialsid[=NAME]
              Print a list of initial SIDs or, if NAME is provided, print the initial  SID  NAME.
              With -x, print the context assigned to each displayed SID.

       --fs_use[=TYPE]
              Print  a list of fs_use statements or, if TYPE is provided, print the statement for
              filesystem TYPE.  There is no expanded information for this component.

       --genfscon[=TYPE]
              Print a list of genfscon statements or, if TYPE is provided,  print  the  statement
              for the filesystem TYPE.  There is no expanded information for this component.

       --netifcon[=NAME]
              Print  a  list  of  netif contexts or, if NAME is provided, print the statement for
              interface NAME.  There is no expanded information for this component.

       --nodecon[=ADDR]
              Print a list of node contexts or, if ADDR is provided, print the statement for  the

              Print a list of port contexts or, if PORT is provided, print the statement for port
              PORT.  There is no expanded information for this component.

       --protocol=PROTO
              Print only portcon statements for the protocol PROTO. This  option  is  ignored  if
              portcon  statements  are  not  printed  or if no statement exists for the requested
              port.

       --constrain
              Print a list of constraints.  There is no expanded information for this component.

       --all  Print all components.

OPTIONS

       -x, --expand
              Print additional details for each component matching the expression.  These details
              include  the  types  assigned  to  an  attribute or role and the permissions for an
