- Add man page sections '(N)' to external references, and '()' on functions described in the same man page. - Escape minus signs when those are expected to be used on the command line or files. - Mark files and variables in italic; Note headings, function names, constants, program options and man page references in bold. - Do not justify and hyphenate SEE ALSO section, and avoid hyphenation on symbol names by prepending them with \%. - Remove trailing dot from NAME section description. - Split sections with a no-op command '.', to visually distinguish them but to avoid introducing spurious vertical space in the formatted output. - Add explicit .sp commands in the SYNOPSIS section between function prototypes, and fix space placement in function protoypes. - Split header includes with .br (instead of the explicit or implicit .sp) so that they are vertically contiguous. - Add missing {} around SELINUXTYPE and POLICYTYPE variable text in paths. - Remove unneeded formatting commands. - Remove spurious blank lines.

booleans \- Policy booleans enable runtime customization of SELinux policy

|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
This manual page describes SELinux policy booleans.
|
|
.BR
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
For example, the boolean httpd_enable_cgi allows the httpd daemon to
|
|
run cgi scripts if it is enabled. If the administrator does not want
|
|
to allow execution of cgi scripts, he can simply disable this boolean
|
|
value.
|
|
|
|
The policy defines a default value for each boolean, typically false.
|
|
These default values can be overridden via local settings created via the
|
|
.BR setsebool (8)
|
|
utility, using
|
|
.B \-P
|
|
to make the setting persistent across reboots. The
|
|
.B system\-config\-securitylevel
|
|
tool provides a graphical interface for altering
|
|
the settings. The
|
|
.BR load_policy (8)
|
|
program will preserve
|
|
current boolean settings upon a policy reload by default, or can
|
|
optionally reset booleans to the boot-time defaults via the
|
|
.B \-b
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
Boolean values can be listed by using the
|
|
.BR getsebool (8)
|
|
utility and passing it the
|
|
.B \-a
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
Boolean values can also be changed at runtime via the
|
|
.BR setsebool (8)
|
|
utility or the
|
|
.BR togglesebool (8)
|
|
utility. By default, these utilities only change the
|
|
current boolean value and do not affect the persistent settings,
|
|
unless the
|
|
.B \-P
|
|
option is used to setsebool.
