NB Such a setxattr() call can only be performed by a process with CAP_MAC_ADMIN that is also allowed mac_admin permission in SELinux policy. Consequently, this is never possible on Android (no process is allowed mac_admin permission, always enforcing) and is only possible in Fedora/RHEL for a few domains (if enforcing).
