failsafe_context - The SELinux fail safe context configuration file
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:
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:
The file consists of a single line entry as follows:
Where:
# ./contexts/failsafe_context
unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0
