SECURELEVEL_GT(9)

🎀 SECURELEVEL_GT(9) 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the SECURELEVEL_GT(9) page from the Kernel Developer's Manual 💖 this one is all about testing the active securelevel, and it's shorter than a TikTok attention span, so let's go ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

securelevel_gt, securelevel_ge — test active securelevel 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/proc.h>

int
securelevel_gt(struct ucred *cr, int level);

int
securelevel_ge(struct ucred *cr, int level);

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

these functions test the active security level against the given level, no cap 🫶

if the calling credential cr was imprisoned by the jail(2) system call, and has a different security level set than the host environment, the security level with the highest value is used 🔥

• securelevel_gt() — evaluates whether or not the active security level is greater than the supplied level ⭐
• securelevel_ge() — evaluates whether or not the active security level is greater than or equal to the supplied level 🌈

---

🦋 RETURN VALUES 🦋

these functions return EPERM if the condition evaluated to true, and 0 otherwise 💀 like, that's the whole mood.
