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.

Where not otherwise stated, functions described in this manual page return zero on success or -1 on error.
