I'm adding support to libvirt for a userspace access controller, and have been basing my code on that done in DBus (dbus/bus/selinux.c). That code uses avc_init() and provides the whole set of callbacks that method requires. The man page for avc_init(), however, states that is is deprecated and we should use a combination of avc_open() + selinux_set_callback() in new code. The selinux_set_callback() function, while able to set the log & audit callbacks, does not have any way to set the thread, mutex or memory allocation callbacks. I've verified from looking at the code that avc_init() is the only API that can set these. Why is it deprecated, if the replacement quoted can't actually replace its functionality ? I'm inclined it to use avc_init() despite it being deprecated.
