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
       virtulization 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
