selinux_boolean_sub -
SYNOPSIS
#include <selinux/selinux.h>
char *selinux_boolean_sub(const char *boolean_name);
DESCRIPTION
selinux_boolean_sub() searches the /etc/selinux/{POLICYTYPE}/booleans.subs_dist file for a maching boolean_name record. If the record
exists the boolean substitution name is returned. If not selinux_boolean_sub() returns the original boolean_name.
RETURN VALUE
selinux_boolean_sub() returns the boolean_name or the substituted name on success. The returned value must be freed with free(3).
selinux_boolean_sub() returns NULL on error.

booleans(5) SELinux configuration booleans(5)NAME
booleans - The SELinux booleans configuration files.
DESCRIPTION
The booleans file, if present contains booleans to support a specific distribution.
The booleans.local file, if present contains locally generated booleans.
Both files contain a list of boolean names and their associated values.
Generally the booleans and/or booleans.local files are not present (they have been deprecated). However if there is an SELinux-aware appli-
cation that uses the libselinux functions listed below, then these files may be present:
security_set_boolean_list(3)
Writes a booleans.local file if flag permanent = 1.
security_load_booleans(3)
Looks for a booleans and/or booleans.local file at selinux_booleans_path(3) unless a specific path is specified as a parame-
ter.
booleans(8) has details on booleans and setsebool(8) describes how booleans can now be set persistent across reboots.
selinux_booleans_path(3) will return the active policy path to these files. The default boolean files are:
/etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/booleans
/etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/booleans.local
Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file config (see selinux_config(5)).
FILE FORMAT
Both boolean files have the same format and contain one or more boolean names and their value.
The format is:
boolean_name value
Where:
boolean_name
The name of the boolean.
value
The default setting for the boolean. This can be one of the following:
true | false | 1 | 0
Note that if SETLOCALDEFS is set in the SELinux config file (see selinux_config(5)), then selinux_mkload_policy(3) will check for a bool-
eans.local file in the selinux_booleans_path and also a local.users file (see local.users(5)) in the selinux_users_path(3).
