avc_compute_create, avc_compute_member \- obtain SELinux label for new object.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.B avc_compute_create
is used to compute a SID to use for labeling a new object in a particular class based on a SID pair. This call is identical to
.BR security_compute_create ,
but does not require converting from userspace SID's to contexts and back again.
.B avc_compute_member
is used to compute a SID to use for labeling a polyinstantiated object instance of a particular class based on a SID pair. This call is identical to
.BR security_compute_member ,
but does not require converting from userspace SID's to contexts and back again.
These functions
return a SID for the computed context in the memory referenced by
.IR sid ,
incrementing its reference count by 1.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
On success, zero is returned. On error, \-1 is returned and
.I errno
is set appropriately.
.SH "ERRORS"
.TP
.B EINVAL
The
.I tclass
and/or the security contexts referenced by
.I ssid
and
.I tsid
are not recognized by the currently loaded policy, or
.I tsid
or
.I ssid
has a zero reference count and is invalid.
.TP
.B ENOMEM
An attempt to allocate memory failed.
