This is the upstream repository for the Security Enhanced Linux (SELinux) userland libraries and tools. The software provided by this project complements the SELinux features integrated into the Linux kernel and is used by Linux distributions. All bugs an

When selinux_restorecon() is used to relabel symlinks, it performs the
following syscalls (as seen by running strace on restorecond):
lstat("/root/symlink", {st_mode=S_IFLNK|0777, st_size=6, ...}) = 0
statfs("/root/symlink", 0x7ffd6bb4d090) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
lstat("/root/symlink", {st_mode=S_IFLNK|0777, st_size=6, ...}) = 0
lgetxattr("/root/symlink", "security.selinux", "sysadm_u:object_r:user_home_t", 255) = 30
The second one triggers a SELinux check for lnk_file:read, as statfs()
dereferences symbolic links. This call to statfs() is only used to find
out whether "restoreconlast" xattr can be ignored, which is always the
case for non-directory files (the first syscall, lstat(), is actually
used to perform this check).
Skip the call to statfs() when setrestoreconlast is already false.
This silences an AVC denial that would otherwise be reported to
audit.log (cf. https://github.com/SELinuxProject/refpolicy/pull/22).

Build dependencies on Fedora: yum install audit-libs-devel bison bzip2-devel dbus-devel dbus-glib-devel flex flex-devel flex-static glib2-devel libcap-devel libcap-ng-devel pam-devel pcre-devel python-devel setools-devel swig xmlto redhat-rpm-config To build and install everything under a private directory, run: make DESTDIR=~/obj install install-pywrap To install as the default system libraries and binaries (overwriting any previously installed ones - dangerous!), on x86_64, run: make LIBDIR=/usr/lib64 SHLIBDIR=/lib64 install install-pywrap relabel or on x86 (32-bit), run: make install install-pywrap relabel This may render your system unusable if the upstream SELinux userspace lacks library functions or other dependencies relied upon by your distribution. If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces. To install libsepol on macOS (mainly for policy analysis): cd libsepol; make PREFIX=/usr/local install This requires GNU coreutils (brew install coreutils).
