LOAD_POLICY(8)                                           NSA                                           LOAD_POLICY(8)



NAME
       load_policy - load a new SELinux policy into the kernel


SYNOPSIS
       load_policy [-qi]

       -i     initial policy load. Only use this if this is the first time policy is being loaded since boot (usually
              called from initramfs).


EXIT STATUS
       0      Success

       1      Invalid option

       2      Policy load failed

       3      Initial policy load failed and enforcing mode requested
