"NAME"
security_load_booleans, security_set_boolean, security_commit_booleans, security_get_boolean_names, security_get_boolean_active, security_get_boolean_pending - routines for manipulating SELinux boolean values .
"SYNOPSIS"
#include <selinux/selinux.h> "int security_load_booleans(char *" path ");" "int security_get_boolean_names(char ***" names ", int *" len ");" "int security_get_boolean_pending(const char *" name ");" "int security_get_boolean_active(const char *" name ");" "int security_set_boolean(const char *" name ", int " value ");" "int security_set_boolean_list(size_t " boolcnt ", SELboolean *" boollist ", int " permanent ");" "int security_commit_booleans(void);" .
"DESCRIPTION"
The SELinux policy can include conditional rules that are enabled or disabled based on the current values of a set of policy booleans. These policy booleans allow runtime modification of the security policy without having to load a new policy. The SELinux API allows for a transaction based update. So you can set several boolean values and then commit them all at once. security_load_booleans () loads policy boolean settings. Path may be NULL, in which case the booleans are loaded from the active policy boolean configuration file. security_get_boolean_names () provides a list of boolean names, currently supported by the loaded policy. security_get_boolean_pending () returns the pending value for boolean or -1 on failure. security_get_boolean_active () returns the active value for boolean or -1 on failure. security_set_boolean () sets the pending value for boolean security_set_boolean_list () saves a list of booleans in a single transaction. security_commit_booleans () commits all pending values for the booleans. .
"RETURN VALUE"
Where not otherwise stated, functions described in this manual page return zero on success or -1 on error. .
