NAME
       apparmor_parser - loads AppArmor profiles into the kernel

SYNOPSIS
       apparmor_parser [-adrR] [--add] [--debug]  [--replace] [--remove]
                         [--preprocess] [--Include n] [--base n] [ --Complain
       ]

       apparmor_parser [-hv] [--help] [--version]

DESCRIPTION
       apparmor_parser is used to import new apparmor.d(5) profiles into the
       Linux kernel. The profiles restrict the operations available to
       processes by executable name.

       The profiles are loaded into the Linux kernel by the apparmor_parser
       program, which takes its input from standard input. The input supplied
       to apparmor_parser should be in the format described in apparmor.d(5).

OPTIONS
       -a, --add
           Insert the AppArmor definitions given into the kernel. This is the
           default action. This gives an error message if a AppArmor
           definition by the same name already exists in the kernel, or if the
           parser doesn't understand its input. It reports when an addition
           succeeded.

       -r, --replace
           This flag is required if an AppArmor definition by the same name
           already exists in the kernel; used to replace the definition
           already in the kernel with the definition given on standard input.

       -R, --remove
           This flag is used to remove an AppArmor definition already in the
           kernel.  Note that it still requires a complete AppArmor definition
           as described in apparmor.d(5) even though the contents of the
           definition aren't used.

       -C, --Complain
           For the profile to load in complain mode.

       -B, --binary
           Load a binary (cached) profile, as produced with the -S option.

       -N, --names
           Produce a list of policies from a given set of profiles (implies
           -K).

       -S, --stdout
           Writes a binary (cached) profile to stdout (implies -K and -T).

       -b n, --base n
           Set the base directory for resolving #include directives defined as
           relative paths.

       -I n, --Include n
           Add element n to the search path when resolving #include directives
           defined as an absolute paths.

       -f n, --subdomainfs n
           Set the location of the apparmor security filesystem (default is
           "/sys/kernel/security/apparmor").

       -m n, --match-string n
           Only use match features "n".

       -n n, --namespace-string n
           Force a profile to load in the namespace "n".

       -X, --readimpliesX
           In the case of profiles that are loading on systems were
           READ_IMPLIES_EXEC is set in the kernel for a given process, load
           the profile so that any "r" flags are processed as "mr".

       -k, --show-cache
           Report the cache processing (hit/miss details) when loading or
           saving cached profiles.

       -K, --skip-cache
           Perform no caching at all: disables -W, implies -T.

       -T, --skip-read-cache
           By default, if a profile's cache is found in /etc/apparmor.d/cache/
           and the timestamp is newer than the profile, it will be loaded from
           the cache.  This option disables this cache loading behavior.

       -W, --write-cache
           Write out cached profiles to /etc/apparmor.d/cache/.  Off by
           default.  In cases where abstractions have been changed, and the
           parser is running with "--replace", it may make sense to also use
           "--skip-read-cache" with the "--write-cache" option.

       -Q, --skip-kernel-load
           Perform all actions except the actual loading of a profile into the
           kernel.  This is useful for testing profile generation, caching,
           etc, without making changes to the running kernel profiles.

       -q, --quiet
           Do not report on the profiles as they are loaded, and not show
           warnings.

       -v, --verbose
           Report on the profiles as they are loaded, and show warnings.

       -V, --version
           Print the version number and exit.

       -p, --preprocess
           Dump the input profile to stdout out applying preprocessing
           flattening includes into the output profile.

       -d, --debug
           Given once, only checks the profiles to ensure syntactic
           correctness.  Given twice, dumps its interpretation of the profile
           for checking.

       -h, --help
           Give a quick reference guide.
