NAME

       sepol_genbools - Rewrite a binary policy with different boolean settings

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sepol/sepol.h>

       int sepol_genbools(void *data, size_t len, char *boolpath);
       int sepol_genbools_array(void *data, size_t len, char **names, int *values, int nel);

DESCRIPTION

       sepol_genbools  rewrites  a binary policy stored in the memory region described by (data, len) to use the boolean settings specified in the
       file named by boolpath.	The boolean settings are specified by name=value lines where value may be 0 or false to disable or 1  or  true	to
       enable.	The binary policy is rewritten in place in memory.

       sepol_genbools_array does likewise, but obtains the boolean settings from the parallel arrays (names, values) with nel elements each.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns	0 on success or -1 otherwise, with errno set appropriately.  An errno of ENOENT indicates that the boolean file did not exist.	An
       errno of EINVAL indicates that one or more booleans listed in the boolean file was undefined in the policy or had an invalid  value  speci-
       fied; in this case, the binary policy is still rewritten but any invalid boolean settings are ignored.

NAME

       security_load_booleans,	security_set_boolean,  security_commit_booleans,  security_get_boolean_names,  security_get_boolean_active,  secu-
       rity_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.
