You just run it when updating the policy headers (from
selinux-policy-devel) and it regenerates the interface info
in /var/lib/sepolgen.  That info is then used by audit2allow (if passed
-R) to try to match the audit messages against the interfaces so that it
can generate calls to interfaces rather than just raw allow rules.
