.SH "NAME"
|
|
failsafe_context \- The SELinux fail safe context configuration file
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
The
|
|
.I failsafe_context
|
|
file allows SELinux-aware applications such as
|
|
.BR PAM "(8) "
|
|
to obtain a known valid login context for an administrator if no valid default entries can be found elsewhere.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.BR selinux_failsafe_context_path "(3) "
|
|
will return the active policy path to this file. The default failsafe context file is:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.I /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/failsafe_context
|
|
.RE
|
|
.sp
|
|
Where \fI{SELINUXTYPE}\fR is the entry from the selinux configuration file \fIconfig\fR (see \fBselinux_config\fR(5)).
|
|
.sp
|
|
The following functions read this file from the active policy path if they cannot obtain a default context:
|
|
.br
|
|
.RS
|
|
.BR get_default_context "(3) "
|
|
.br

.BR get_ordered_context_list "(3) "

.SH "FILE FORMAT"
|
|
The file consists of a single line entry as follows:
|
|
.RS
|
|
\fIrole\fB:\fItype\fR[\fB:\fIrange\fR]
|
|
.RE
|
|
.sp
|

.RS
|
|
.I role
|
|
.I type
|
|
.I range
|
|
.RS
|
