NAME

       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_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_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. Note that the int permanent
       flag is deprecated and should be set to zero.

       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.
