NAME
hextoalabel - convert an internal text label to its human readable equivalent SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/hextoalabel [internal-text-sensitivity-label] /usr/sbin/hextoalabel -c [internal-text-clearance] DESCRIPTION
hextoalabel converts an internal text label into its human readable equivalent and writes the result to the standard output file. This internal form is often hexadecimal. If no option is supplied, the label is assumed to be a sensitivity label. If no internal text label is specified, the label is read from the standard input file. The expected use of this command is emergency repair of labels that are stored in internal databases. OPTIONS
-c Identifies the internal text label as a clearance. EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: 0 On success. 1 On failure, and writes diagnostics to the standard error file. ATTRIBUTES

NAME
btohex, bsltoh, bcleartoh, bsltoh_r, bcleartoh_r, h_alloc, h_free - convert binary label to hexadecimal SYNOPSIS
cc [flag...] file... -ltsol [library...] #include <tsol/label.h> char *bsltoh(const m_label_t *label); char *bcleartoh(const m_label_t *clearance); char *bsltoh_r(const m_label_t *label, char *hex); char *bcleartoh_r(const m_label_t *clearance, char *hex); char *h_alloc(const unsigned char type); void h_free(char *hex); DESCRIPTION
These functions convert binary labels into hexadecimal strings that represent the internal value. The bsltoh() and bsltoh_r() functions convert a binary sensitivity label into a string of the form: [0xsensitivity_label_hexadecimal_value] The bcleartoh() and bcleartoh_r() functions convert a binary clearance into a string of the form: 0xclearance_hexadecimal_value The h_alloc() function allocates memory for the hexadecimal value type for use by bsltoh_r() and bcleartoh_r(). Valid values for type are: SUN_SL_ID label is a binary sensitivity label. SUN_CLR_ID label is a binary clearance. The h_free() function frees memory allocated by h_alloc(). RETURN VALUES
These functions return a pointer to a string that contains the result of the translation, or (char *)0 if the parameter is not of the required type. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Obsolete | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |MT-Level |MT-Safe with exceptions | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ The bsltoh(), bcleartoh(), bsltoh_r(), bcleartoh_r(), h_alloc(), and h_free() functions are Obsolete. Use the label_to_str(3TSOL) function instead. The bsltoh() and bcleartoh() functions share the same statically allocated string storage. They are not MT-Safe. Subsequent calls to any of these functions will overwrite that string with the newly translated string. The bsltoh_r() and bcleartoh_r() functions should be used in multithreaded applications.
