NAME

       virtual_image_context - The SELinux virtual machine image context configuration file

DESCRIPTION

       The  virtual_image_context  file contains a list of image contexts for use by the SELinux-
       aware virtualization API libvirt (see libvirtd(8)).

       selinux_virtual_image_context_path(3) will return the active policy path to this file. The
       default virtual image context file is:
              /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/virtual_image_context

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

FILE FORMAT

       Each line in the file consists of an entry as follows:
              user:role:type[:range]

       Where:
              user role type range
                     A user, role, type and optional range (for MCS/MLS) separated by colons  (:)
                     that can be used as a virtual image context.

EXAMPLE

       # ./contexts/virtual_image_context
       system_u:object_r:svirt_image_t:s0
       system_u:object_r:svirt_content_t:s0
