| .SH "NAME" |
| default_contexts \- The SELinux default contexts configuration file |
| . |
| .SH "DESCRIPTION" |
| The default contexts configuration file \fIdefault_contexts\fR contains entries that allow SELinux-aware login applications such as |
| .BR PAM "(8) " |
| .sp |
| SELinux-aware login applications generally use one or more of the following libselinux functions that read these files from the active policy path: |
| .RS |
| .BR get_default_context "(3) " |
| .br |
| .BR get_ordered_context_list "(3) " |
| .br |
| .BR get_ordered_context_list_with_level "(3) " |
| .br |
| .BR get_default_context_with_level "(3) " |
| .br |
| .BR get_default_context_with_role "(3) " |
| .br |
| .BR get_default_context_with_rolelevel "(3) " |

| .BR query_user_context "(3) " |

| .BR manual_user_enter_context "(3) " |
| .RE |
| .sp |
| The default context configuration file path for the active policy is returned by \fBselinux_default_contexts_path\fR(3). The default, default contexts file is: |
| .RS |
| .I /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/default_contexts |
| .RE |
| .sp |
| Where \fI{SELINUXTYPE}\fR is the entry from the selinux configuration file \fIconfig\fR (see \fBselinux_config\fR(5)). |
| . |
| .SH "FILE FORMAT" |
| Each line in the default configuration file consists of the following: |
| .RS |
| .I login_process user_login_process [user_login_process] ... |
| .RE |
| .sp |
| Where: |
| .RS |
| .I login_process |
| .RS |
| This consists of a \fIrole\fB:\fItype\fR[\fB:\fIrange\fR] entry that represents the login process context that are defined in the policy. |
| .RE |
| .I user_login_process |
| .RS |
| This consists of one or more \fIrole\fB:\fItype\fR[\fB:\fIrange\fR] entries that represent the user login process context defined in the policy. |
