NAME
       matchpathcon - get the default security context for the specified file
       from the policy.


SYNOPSIS
       #include <selinux/selinux.h>

       int matchpathcon(const char  *path,  mode_t  mode,  security_context_t
       *con);
       void set_matchpathcon_printf(void (*f)(const char *fmt, ...));


DESCRIPTION
       matchpathcon  matches the specified pathname and mode against the file
       contexts configuration and sets the security context "con" to refer to
       the  resulting  context. "mode" can be 0 to disable mode matching, but
       should be provided whenever possible, as it may affect  the  matching.
       Note:
	  Caller must free returned security context "con" using freecon.

       set_matchpathcon_printf

       Set the function used by matchpathcon when displaying errors about the
       file_contexts configuration.   If  not  set,  then  this	 defaults  to
       fprintf(stderr, fmt, ...).


RETURN VALUE
       Returns 0 on success or -1 otherwise.
