NAME
       setfiles - set file SELinux security contexts.


SYNOPSIS
       setfiles  [-c  policy ] [-d] [-l] [-n] [-e directory ] [-o filename ] [-q] [-s] [-v] [-vv]
       [-W] [-F] spec_file pathname...

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page describes the setfiles program.

       This program is primarily used to  initialise  the  security  context  database  (extended
       attributes)  on  one or more filesystems.  This program is initially run as part of the SE
       Linux installation process.

       It can also be run at any time to correct errors, to add support for new policy,  or  with
       the -n option it can just check whether the file contexts are all as you expect.


OPTIONS
       -c     check the validity of the contexts against the specified binary policy.

       -d     show what specification matched each file.

       -l     log changes in file labels to syslog.

       -n     don't change any file labels.

       -q     suppress non-error output.

       -r rootpath
              use an alternate root path

       -e directory
              directory to exclude (repeat option for more than one directory.)

       -F     Force reset of context to match file_context for customizable files

       -o filename
              save list of files with incorrect context in filename.

       -s     take a list of files from standard input instead of using a pathname on the command
              line.

       -v     show changes in file labels, if type or role are changing.

       -vv    show changes in file labels, if type, role, or user are changing.

       -W     display warnings about entries that had no matching files.

       -0     Input items are terminated by a null character instead of by whitespace,   and  the
              quotes  and  backslash  are not special (every character is taken literally).  Dis-
              ables the end of file string, which  is  treated  like  any other argument.  Useful
              when input items might contain white space, quote  marks,  or  backslashes.The  GNU
              find  -print0  option produces input suitable for this mode.


ARGUMENTS
       spec_file The specification file which contains lines of the following form
       regexp [ -type ] ( context | <<none>> )
       The regular expression is anchored at both ends.  The optional type  field  specifies  the
       file  type  as shown in the mode field by the ls(1) program, e.g. -- to match only regular
       files or -d to match only directories.  The context can be an ordinary security context or
       the string <<none>> to specify that the file is not to have its context changed.
       The  last  matching specification is used. If there are multiple hard links to a file that
       match different specifications and those specifications indicate different  security  con-
       texts,  then a warning is displayed but the file is still labeled based on the last match-
       ing specification other than <<none>>.

       pathname...
              The pathname for the root directory of each file system to be relabeled.  Not  used
              if the -s option is used.
