.Nd Mandatory Access Control label format
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
If Mandatory Access Control, or
|
|
.Dq MAC ,
|
|
is enabled in your kernel,
|
|
then in addition to the traditional credentials,
|
|
each subject
|
|
(typically a user or a socket)
|
|
and object
|
|
(file system object, socket, etc)
|
|
is given a
|
|
.Em MAC label .
|
|
The MAC label specifies the necessary subject-specific or
|
|
object-specific information necessary for a MAC security policy
|
|
.\" .Xr ( mac 9 )
|
|
to enforce access control on the subject/object.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The format for a MAC label is defined as follows:
|
|
.Dl Sy policy1 Ns No / Ns Sy qualifier1 , Ns Sy policy2 Ns No / Ns Sy qualifier2 , Ns ...
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A MAC label consists of a policy name,
|
|
followed by a forward slash,
|
|
followed by the subject or object's qualifier,
|
|
optionally followed by a comma and one or more additional policy labels.
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl Li "biba/low(low-low)"
|
|
.Dl Li "biba/high(low-high),te/equal(equal-equal),partition/0"
|
