virtual_image_context(5)				       SELinux configuration					  virtual_image_context(5)

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
