Enforcing mode = Security policy decisions are enforced, policy violations are
logged.
Permissive mode = Security policy decisions are not enforced, policy violations
are logged.
Disabled = Security policy decisions are not computed.

So, permissive mode is only useful for policy development.
If you do not, you may as well disable selinux.
