default_contexts(5)	     SELinux configuration	   default_contexts(5)

NAME
       default_contexts - The SELinux default contexts configuration file

DESCRIPTION
       The  default  contexts  configuration  file  default_contexts  contains
       entries that allow SELinux-aware login applications such as PAM(8)

       SELinux-aware login applications generally use one or more of the  fol‐
       lowing  libselinux functions that read these files from the active pol‐
       icy path:
	      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)

       The default context configuration file path for the  active  policy  is
       returned by selinux_default_contexts_path(3). The default, default con‐
       texts file is:
	      /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/default_contexts

       Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the  selinux  configuration  file
       config (see selinux_config(5)).

FILE FORMAT
       Each line in the default configuration file consists of the following:
	      login_process user_login_process [user_login_process] ...

       Where:
	      login_process
		     This  consists  of	 a role:type[:range] entry that repre‐
		     sents the login process context that are defined  in  the
		     policy.
	      user_login_process
		     This  consists  of	 one or more role:type[:range] entries
		     that represent the user login process context defined  in
		     the policy.
