+ <code class="command">SECURITY LABEL</code> applies a security label to a database
+ object. An arbitrary number of security labels, one per label provider, can
+ be associated with a given database object. Label providers are loadable
+ modules which register themselves by using the function
+ <code class="function">register_label_provider</code>.
+ </p><div class="note"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>
+ <code class="function">register_label_provider</code> is not an SQL function; it can
+ only be called from C code loaded into the backend.
+ </p></div><p>
+ The label provider determines whether a given label is valid and whether
+ it is permissible to assign that label to a given object. The meaning of a
+ given label is likewise at the discretion of the label provider.
+ <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> places no restrictions on whether or how a
+ label provider must interpret security labels; it merely provides a
+ mechanism for storing them. In practice, this facility is intended to allow
+ integration with label-based mandatory access control (MAC) systems such as
+ <span class="productname">SELinux</span>. Such systems make all access control decisions
+ based on object labels, rather than traditional discretionary access control
+ (DAC) concepts such as users and groups.
