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 selinuxfs from /proc/filesystems, and
       then unmounts /sys/fs/selinux.

       This function is only supported on Linux 6.3 and earlier, and 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 security_setenforce(3).

RETURN VALUE

       security_disable() returns zero on success or -1 on error.
