getkeycreatecon, setkeycreatecon \- get or set the SELinux security context used for creating a new kernel keyrings.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
.B getkeycreatecon
|
|
retrieves the context used for creating a new kernel keyring.
|
|
This returned context should be freed with freecon if non-NULL.
|
|
getkeycreatecon sets *con to NULL if no keycreate context has been explicitly
|
|
set by the program (i.e. using the default policy behavior).
|
|
|
|
.B setkeycreatecon
|
|
sets the context used for creating a new kernel keyring.
|
|
NULL can be passed to
|
|
setkeycreatecon to reset to the default policy behavior.
|
|
The keycreate context is automatically reset after the next execve, so a
|
|
program doesn't need to explicitly sanitize it upon startup.
|
|
|
|
setkeycreatecon can be applied prior to library
|
|
functions that internally perform an file creation,
|
|
in order to set an file context on the objects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: Signal handlers that perform an setkeycreate must take care to
|
|
save, reset, and restore the keycreate context to avoid unexpected behavior.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
On error -1 is returned.
|
|
On success 0 is returned.
