Context Statement
=================
Contexts are formed using previously declared parameters and may be named or anonymous where:
- Named - The context is declared with a context identifier that is used as a reference.
- Anonymous - They are defined within the CIL labeling statement using user, role etc. identifiers.
Each type is shown in the examples.
context
-------
Declare an SELinux security context identifier for labeling. The range (or current and clearance levels) MUST be defined whether the policy is MLS/MCS enabled or not.
**Statement definition:**
```secil
(context context_id (user_id role_id type_id levelrange_id)))
```
**Where:**

**Examples:**
This example uses a named context definition:
```secil
(context runas_exec_context (u object_r exec low_low))
(filecon "/system/bin/run-as" file runas_exec_context)
```
to resolve/build a `file_contexts` entry of (assuming MLS enabled policy):
```
/system/bin/run-as -- u:object_r:runas.exec:s0-s0
```
This example uses an anonymous context where the previously declared `user role type levelrange` identifiers are used to specify two [`portcon`](cil_network_labeling_statements.md#portcon) statements:
```secil
(portcon udp 1024 (test.user object_r test.process ((s0) (s1))))
(portcon tcp 1024 (test.user object_r test.process (system_low system_high)))
```
This example uses an anonymous context for the first and named context for the second in a [`netifcon`](cil_network_labeling_statements.md#netifcon) statement:
```secil
(context netif_context (test.user object_r test.process ((s0 (c0)) (s1 (c0)))))
(netifcon eth04 (test.user object_r test.process ((s0 (c0)) (s1 (c0)))) netif_context)
```
