- Add man page sections '(N)' to external references, and '()' on
functions described in the same man page.
- Escape minus signs when those are expected to be used on the command
line or files.
- Mark files and variables in italic; Note headings, function names,
constants, program options and man page references in bold.
- Do not justify and hyphenate SEE ALSO section, and avoid hyphenation
on symbol names by prepending them with \%.
- Remove trailing dot from NAME section description.
- Split sections with a no-op command '.', to visually distinguish them
but to avoid introducing spurious vertical space in the formatted
output.
- Add explicit .sp commands in the SYNOPSIS section between function
prototypes, and fix space placement in function protoypes.
- Split header includes with .br (instead of the explicit or implicit
.sp) so that they are vertically contiguous.
- Add missing {} around SELINUXTYPE and POLICYTYPE variable text in
paths.
- Remove unneeded formatting commands.
- Remove spurious blank lines.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
.BR avc_compute_create ()
|
|
is used to compute a SID to use for labeling a new object in a particular class based on a SID pair. This call is identical to
|
|
.BR security_compute_create (),
|
|
but does not require converting from userspace SID's to contexts and back again.
|
|
|
|
.BR avc_compute_member ()
|
|
is used to compute a SID to use for labeling a polyinstantiated object instance of a particular class based on a SID pair. This call is identical to
|
|
.BR security_compute_member (),
|
|
but does not require converting from userspace SID's to contexts and back again.
|
|
|
|
These functions
|
|
return a SID for the computed context in the memory referenced by
|
|
.IR sid .
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
On success, zero is returned. On error, \-1 is returned and
|
|
.I errno
|
|
is set appropriately.
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "ERRORS"
|
|

|
|
.B EINVAL
|
|
The
|
|
.I tclass

|
and/or the security contexts referenced by
|
|

|
|
and
|
|
.I tsid
|
|
are not recognized by the currently loaded policy.

|
.TP
|
|
.B ENOMEM
|

An attempt to allocate memory failed.
