+.Nd allocate appropriate storage for
+.Vt mac_t
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In sys/mac.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn mac_prepare "mac_t *mac" "const char *elements"
+.Ft int
+.Fn mac_prepare_type "mac_t *mac" "const char *name"
+.Ft int
+.Fn mac_prepare_file_label "mac_t *mac"
+.Ft int
+.Fn mac_prepare_ifnet_label "mac_t *mac"
+.Ft int
+.Fn mac_prepare_process_label "mac_t *mac"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+family of functions allocates the appropriate amount of storage and initializes
+.Fa *mac
+for use by
+.Xr mac_get 3 .
+When the resulting label is passed into the
+.Xr mac_get 3
+functions, the kernel will attempt to fill in the label elements specified
+when the label was prepared.
+Elements are specified in a nul-terminated string, using commas to
+delimit fields.
+Element names may be prefixed with the
+.Dv ?
+character to indicate that a failure by the kernel to retrieve that
+element should not be considered fatal.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn mac_prepare
+function accepts a list of policy names as a parameter, and allocates the
+storage to fit those label elements accordingly.
+The remaining functions in the family make use of system defaults defined
+in
+.Xr mac.conf 5
+instead of an explicit
+.Va elements
+argument, deriving the default from the specified object type.
+.Pp
+.Fn mac_prepare_type
+allocates the storage to fit an object label of the type specified by
+the
+.Va name
+argument.
+The
+.Fn mac_prepare_file_label ,
+.Fn mac_prepare_ifnet_label ,
+and
+.Fn mac_prepare_process_label
+functions are equivalent to invocations of
+.Fn mac_prepare_type
+with arguments of
+.Qq file ,
+.Qq ifnet ,
+and
+.Qq process
+respectively.

+.Sh STANDARDS
+POSIX.1e is described in IEEE POSIX.1e draft 17.
+Discussion of the draft
+continues on the cross-platform POSIX.1e implementation mailing list.
+To join this list, see the

+POSIX.1e implementation page
+for more information.
+.Sh HISTORY
+Support for Mandatory Access Control was introduced in
+.Fx 5.0
+as part of the
+.Tn TrustedBSD
+Project.
+Support for generic object types first appeared in
+.Fx 5.2 .
