+For certain tasks the SELinux Management library resorts to running
+external commands. For the following commands their path and arguments can
+be overridden:
+
+.RS
+.RS
+.TP
+.B load_policy
+Command to load a kernel policy.
+Requires no argument.
+Defaults to
+.IR /sbin/load_policy
+with no arguments.
+
+.TP
+.B setfiles
+Command to verify file context definitions.
+Requires two arguments, the path to the kernel policy and the path to the
+file context definition file.
+Defaults to
+.IR /sbin/setfiles
+with the arguments '\-q \-c $@ $<'.
+
+.TP
+.B sefcontext_compile
+Command to compile a file context definition file.
+Requires one argument, the path to the to be compiled file context
+definition file.
+Defaults to
+.IR /sbin/sefcontext_compile
+with the argument '$@'.
+
+.RE
+.PP
+Either
+.IR path
+or
+.IR args
+can be omitted.
+The argument string must contain '$@' for the first required argument,
+and '$<' for the second one.
+The syntax for overriding an external command property is:
+
+.RS
+
+[\fIname\fR]
+.sp 0
+path = /path/to/command
+.sp 0
+args = --flag
+.sp 0
+[end]

+Optionally the SELinux Management library can invoke external commands to
+verify source modules (\fBverify module\fR), linked modules
+(\fBverify linked\fR), and kernel policies (\fBverify kernel\fR).
+The syntax is identical to the above command overrides.
+The program should exit with a value of 0 on success, and non zero on
+failure.
