+and object

+is given a
+.Em "MAC label" .
+The MAC label specifies the necessary subject-specific or
+object-specific information necessary for a MAC security policy
+.\" .Pq Xr mac 9
+to enforce access control on the subject/object.

+.Sm off
+.D1 Ar policy1 No / Ar qualifier1 , policy2 No / Ar qualifier2 , No ...
+.Sm on

+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+biba/low(low-low)
