The following count function is supported for any semanage record. Replace the function and object name as necessary.extern int COUNT_FUNCTION (semanage_handle_t *handle,unsigned int*response);
Behavior: The count function will return the number of all objects in the selected location.Parameters: Thehandle is used to track persistent state across semanage calls, and for error reporting. The number of objects will be stored at the location pointed byresponse.Requirements: This function requires an semanage connection to be established (seesemanage_connect(3) )
In case of failure, -1 is returned, and the semanage error callback is invoked, describing the error. Otherwise a non- negative integer is returned (a commit number). The same number will be returned by all other semanage object read calls until the next commit.
