fixfiles -B

[F]orce reset of context to match
file_context
for customizable files:
fixfiles -F

Clear
/tmp
directory without confirmation:
fixfiles -f

Use the [R]pm database to discover all files within specific packages and restore the file contexts:
fixfiles -R {{rpm_package1,rpm_package2 ...}}

Run a diff on the
PREVIOUS_FILECONTEXT
file to the [C]urrently installed one, and restore the context of all affected files:
fixfiles -C PREVIOUS_FILECONTEXT

Only act on files created after a specific date which will be passed to find
--newermt
command:
fixfiles -N {{YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM}}

Bind [M]ount filesystems before relabeling them, this allows fixing the context of files or directories that have been mounted over:
