NAME

devpolicy– Configure device policy

SYNOPSIS

devpolicy [-s| -v] [-f policyfile] [-r rootdir]

DESCRIPTION

devpolicy reads the /etc/security/tsol/device_policy file and, for each device node in the /devices tree, constructs device policy information and downloads the information to the kernel.

To be successful, devpolicy requires the trusted path attribute and the sys_devices privilege. If device policy has been downloaded by an earlier invocation of the command, devpolicy will fail. If a device has two or more device nodes that are assigned different policies in the device_policy file, devpolicy displays a warning.
