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  node  with
              address ADDR.  There is no expanded information for this component.

       --polcap
              Print policy capabilities.

       --permissive
              Print permissive types.

       --portcon[=PORT]
              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 object class.  This option is
              not available for all component types; see the description of each component for the details  this
              option will provide.

       --stats
