TL;DR

matchpathcon

Lookup the persistent SELinux security context setting of a path. See also: semanage-fcontext, secon, chcon, restorecon. More information: https://manned.org/matchpathcon.8.

  • Lookup the persistent security context setting of an absolute path:

matchpathcon /path/to/file

  • Restrict lookup to settings on a specific file type:

matchpathcon -m file|dir|pipe|chr_file|blk_file|lnk_file|sock_file /path/to/file

  • Verify that the persistent and current security context of a path agree:

matchpathcon -V /path/to/file
