what I need, is to ask the security server if a data residing in userspace owning a context, can be written to a file in OS.
does it make sense if I do it in this way :
avc_has_perm(data_sid ,file_sid, SECLASS_FILE , null, null)
I am confused, because I guessed using such a syntax means if a process is able to write to file, but here we are going to check if data can be written to file.
if everything ok, how the action is specified, that is write?
Regards.

account all policy models implemented within the security server,
including RBAC, TE, and MLS.
