=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
The I<aa_policy_cache> object contains information about a set of AppArmor
|
||
|
policy cache files. The policy cache files are the binary representation of a
|
||
|
human-readable AppArmor profile. The binary representation is the form that is
|
||
|
loaded into the kernel.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The aa_policy_cache_new() function creates an I<aa_policy_cache> object based
|
||
|
upon a directory file descriptor and path. The I<path> must point to a
|
||
|
directory. See the openat(2) man page for examples of I<dirfd> and I<path>. If
|
||
|
I<kernel_features> is NULL, then the features of the current kernel are used.
|
||
|
When specifying a valid I<kernel_features> object, it must be the compatible
|
||
|
with the features of the kernel of interest. The value of I<max_caches> should
|
||
|
be equal to the number of caches that should be allowed before old caches are
|
||
|
automatically reaped. The definition of what is considered to be an old cache
|
||
|
is private to libapparmor. Specifying 0 means that no new caches should be
|
||
|
created and only existing, valid caches may be used. Specifying UINT16_MAX
|
||
|
means that a new cache may be created and that the reaping of old caches is
|
||
|
disabled. The allocated I<aa_policy_cache> object must be freed using
|
||
|
aa_policy_cache_unref().
|
||
|
|
||
|
aa_policy_cache_ref() increments the reference count on the I<policy_cache>
|
||
|
object.
|
||
|
|
||
|
aa_policy_cache_unref() decrements the reference count on the I<policy_cache>
|
||
|
object and releases all corresponding resources when the reference count
|
||
|
reaches zero.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The aa_policy_cache_remove() function deletes all of the policy cache files
|
||
|
based upon a directory file descriptor and path. The I<path> must point to a
|
||
|
directory. See the openat(2) man page for examples of I<dirfd> and I<path>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The aa_policy_cache_replace_all() function can be used to perform a policy
|
||
|
replacement of all of the cache policies in the cache directory represented by
|
||
|
the I<policy_cache> object. If I<kernel_interface> is NULL, then the current
|
||
|
kernel interface is used. When specifying a valid I<kernel_interface> object,
|
||
|
it must be the interface of the currently running kernel.
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 RETURN VALUE
|
||
|
|
||
|
The aa_policy_cache_new() function returns 0 on success and I<*policy_cache>
|
||
|
will point to an I<aa_policy_cache> object that must be freed by
|
||
|
aa_policy_cache_unref(). -1 is returned on error, with errno set appropriately,
|
||
|
and I<*policy_cache> will be set to NULL.
|
||
|
|
||
|
aa_policy_cache_ref() returns the value of I<policy_cache>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
aa_policy_cache_remove() and aa_policy_cache_replace_all() return 0 on success.
|
||
|
-1 is returned on error, with errno set appropriately.
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 ERRORS
|
||
|
|
||
|
The errno value will be set according to the underlying error in the
|
||
|
I<aa_policy_cache> family of functions that return -1 on error.
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 NOTES
|
||
|
|
||
|
All aa_policy_cache functions described above are present in libapparmor
|
||
|
version 2.10 and newer.
