MAC_IS_PRESENT(3)					   BSD Library Functions Manual 					 MAC_IS_PRESENT(3)

NAME

     mac_is_present -- report whether the running system has MAC support

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/mac.h>

     int
     mac_is_present(const char *policyname);

DESCRIPTION

     The mac_is_present() function determines whether the currently-running kernel supports MAC for a given policy or not.  If policyname is
     non-NULL, the presence of the named policy (e.g. ``biba'', ``mls'', ``te'') is checked, otherwise the presence of any MAC policies at all is
     checked.

RETURN VALUES

     If the system supports the given MAC policy, the value 1 is returned.  If the specified MAC policy is not supported, the value 0 is returned.
     If an error occurs, the value -1 is returned.

ERRORS

     [EINVAL]		The value of policyname is not valid.

     [ENOMEM]		Insufficient memory was available to allocate internal storage.
