NAME         top

       virtual_domain_context - The SELinux virtual machine domain
       context configuration file

DESCRIPTION         top

       The virtual_domain_context file contains a list of domain
       contexts that are available for use by the SELinux-aware
       virtualization API libvirt (see libvirtd(8)).

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

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

FILE FORMAT         top

       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 domain context.

EXAMPLE         top

       # ./contexts/virtual_domain_context
