- 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.

.TH "booleans" "5" "28-Nov-2011" "Security Enhanced Linux" "SELinux configuration"
|
|
.SH "NAME"
|
|
booleans \- The SELinux booleans configuration files
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
The \fIbooleans\fR file, if present contains booleans to support a specific distribution.
|
|
.sp
|
|
The \fIbooleans.local\fR file, if present contains locally generated booleans.
|
|
.sp
|
|
Both files contain a list of boolean names and their associated values.
|
|
.sp
|
|
Generally the \fIbooleans\fR and/or \fIbooleans.local\fR files are not present (they have been deprecated). However if there is an SELinux-aware application that uses the libselinux functions listed below, then these files may be present:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RS
|
|
.BR security_set_boolean_list "(3) "
|
|
.RS
|
|
Writes a \fIbooleans.local\fR file if flag \fIpermanent\fR = \fI1\fR.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RE
|
|
.RE
|
|
.RS
|
|
.BR security_load_booleans "(3) "
|
|
.RS
|
|
Looks for a \fIbooleans\fR and/or \fIbooleans.local\fR file at \fBselinux_booleans_path\fR(3) unless a specific path is specified as a parameter.
|
|
.RE
|
|
.RE
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fBbooleans\fR(8) has details on booleans and \fBsetsebool\fR(8) describes how booleans can now be set persistent across reboots.
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fBselinux_booleans_path\fR(3) will return the active policy path to these files. The default boolean files are:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.I /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/booleans
|
|
.br
|
|
.I /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/booleans.local
|
|
.RE
|
|
.sp
|
|
Where \fI{SELINUXTYPE}\fR is the entry from the selinux configuration file \fIconfig\fR (see \fBselinux_config\fR(5)).
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "FILE FORMAT"
|
|
Both boolean files have the same format and contain one or more boolean names and their value.
|
|
.sp
|
|
The format is:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.I boolean_name
|
|
.I value
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RE
|
|
Where:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.I boolean_name
|
|
.RS
|
|
The name of the boolean.
|
|
.RE
|
|
.I value
|
|
.RS
|
|
The default setting for the boolean. This can be one of the following:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.IR true " | " false " | " 1 " | " 0
|
|
.RE

Note that if
|
|
.B SETLOCALDEFS
|
|
is set in the SELinux
|
|
.I config
|
|
file (see
|
|
.BR selinux_config "(5)), then " selinux_mkload_policy "(3) will check for a "
