NAME

       restorecon_xattr   -   manage   security.sehash  extended  attribute  entries  added  by  setfiles(8)  or
       restorecon(8).

SYNOPSIS

       restorecon_xattr [-d] [-D] [-m] [-n] [-r] [-v] [-e directory] [-f specfile] pathname

DESCRIPTION

       restorecon_xattr will display the SHA1 digests added to extended attributes security.sehash or delete the
       attribute completely. These attributes are set by restorecon(8) or setfiles(8) to  specified  directories
       when relabeling recursively.

       restorecon_xattr  is  useful  for  managing the extended attribute entries particularly when users forget
       what directories they ran restorecon(8) or setfiles(8) from.

       RAMFS and TMPFS filesystems do not support the security.sehash extended attribute and  are  automatically
       excluded from searches.

       By default restorecon_xattr will display the SHA1 digests with "Match" appended if they match the default
       specfile  set  or  the  specfile set used with the -f option. Non-matching SHA1 digests will be displayed
       with "No Match" appended.  This feature can be disabled by the -n option.

OPTIONS

       -d     delete all non-matching security.sehash directory digest entries.

       -D     delete all security.sehash directory digest entries.

       -m     do not read /proc/mounts to obtain a list of non-seclabel mounts to be  excluded  from  relabeling
              checks.
              Setting  -m  is  useful  where  there is a non-seclabel fs mounted with a seclabel fs mounted on a
              directory below this.

       -n     Do not append "Match" or "No Match" to displayed digests.

       -r     recursively descend directories.

       -v     display SHA1 digest generated by specfile set (Note that this digest is  not  used  to  match  the
              security.sehash directory digest entries, and is shown for reference only).

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

       -f     specfile
              an  optional  specfile  containing  file context entries as described in file_contexts(5).  If the
              option is not specified, then the default file_contexts will be used.

ARGUMENTS

       pathname
              the pathname of the directory tree to be searched.
