761881c947 libselinux: selinux_status_open: handle error from sysconf
We didn't handle sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) returning an error.  It should be
very rare, obviously, be we should handle it.

bc2a8f418e libselinux: add selinux_status_* interfaces for /selinux/status
The attached patch adds several interfaces to reference /selinux/status
according to sequential-lock logic.

selinux_status_open() open the kernel status page and mmap it with
read-only mode, or open netlink socket as a fallback in older kernels.

Then, we can obtain status information from the mmap'ed page using
selinux_status_updated(), selinux_status_getenfoce(),
selinux_status_policyload() or selinux_status_deny_unknown().

It enables to help to implement userspace avc with heavy access control
decision; that we cannot ignore the cost to communicate with kernel for
validation of userspace caches.
