But they don't affect the shared library API/ABI at all even with MLS enabled, because it doesn't export these functions. The shared library only exports the symbols marked global in libsepol/src/libsepol.map. Everything else is only exported by the static library. -- Stephen Smalley National Security Agency -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
