NAME

aa-exec - confine a program with the specified AppArmor profile  

SYNOPSIS

aa-exec [options] [--] [<command> ...]  

DESCRIPTION

aa-exec is used to launch a program confined by the specified profile and or namespace. If both a profile and namespace are specified command will be confined by profile in the new policy namespace. If only a namespace is specified, the profile name of the current confinement will be used. If neither a profile or namespace is specified command will be run using standard profile attachment (ie. as if run without the aa-exec command).

If the arguments are to be pasted to the <command> being invoked by aa-exec then --- should be used to separate aa-exec arguments from the command.
  aa-exec -p profile1 --- ls -l  

OPTIONS aa-exec accepts the following arguments:

-p PROFILE, --profile=PROFILE

confine <command> with PROFILE. If the PROFILE is not specified use the current profile name (likely unconfined).

-n NAMESPACE, --namespace=NAMESPACE

use profiles in NAMESPACE. This will result in confinement transitioning to using the new profile namespace.

-i, --immediate

transition to PROFILE before doing executing <command>. This subjects the running of <command> to the exec transition rules of the current profile.

-v, --verbose

show commands being performed

-d, --debug

show commands and error codes

--

Signal the end of options and disables further option processing. Any arguments after the --- are treated as arguments of the command. This is useful when passing arguments to the <command> being invoked by aa-exec.
