security_disable(3) SELinux API documentation security_disable(3)
NAME
security_disable - disable the SELinux kernel code at runtime
SYNOPSIS
#include <selinux/selinux.h>
int security_disable(void);
DESCRIPTION
security_disable() disables the SELinux kernel code, unregisters selin-
uxfs from /proc/filesystems, and then unmounts /sys/fs/selinux.
This function can only be called at runtime and prior to the initial
policy load. After the initial policy load, the SELinux kernel code
cannot be disabled, but only placed in "permissive" mode by using secu-
rity_setenforce(3).
RETURN VALUE
security_disable() returns zero on success or -1 on error.
