[systemd-devel] Expected behavior when systemd cannot load SELinux policy

[Jan Synáček]

Hello,

currently, when SELINUX=enforcing and SELINUXTYPE=<invalid value> are
set in /etc/selinux/config, systemd refuses to boot with
"Failed to load SELinux policy. Freezing."

Is this really what should happen? If SELINUX is set to permissive or
disabled, though, systemd happily continues booting. I think that that's
what should happen when SELINUX is set to enforcing as well. Plus a big
warning in the log, or maybe even on the console, of course.

What do you think?

Cheers,
