NAME
failsafe_context - The SELinux fail safe context configuration file
DESCRIPTION
The failsafe_context file allows SELinux-aware applications such as
PAM(8) to obtain a known valid login context for an administrator if no
valid default entries can be found elsewhere.
selinux_failsafe_context_path(3) will return the active policy path to
this file. The default failsafe context file is:
/etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/failsafe_context
Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file
config (see selinux_config(5)).
The following functions read this file from the active policy path if
they cannot obtain a default context:
get_default_context(3)
get_ordered_context_list(3)
get_ordered_context_list_with_level(3)
get_default_context_with_level(3)
get_default_context_with_role(3)
get_default_context_with_rolelevel(3)
query_user_context(3)
manual_user_enter_context(3)
FILE FORMAT
The file consists of a single line entry as follows:
role:type[:range]
Where:
role type range
A role, type and optional range (for MCS/MLS), separated
by colons (:) to form a valid login process context for
an administrator to access the system.
EXAMPLE
