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.
