There is not any specific prohibition against the use of fully automatic weapons ("machine guns") in warfare in the Geneva Convention treaties or any others with which I am familiar.
Countries which have laws against automatic weapons generally write them in such a way that they specifically do not apply to properly authorized agents of government (such as soldiers) using them in the course of their duties.
