NAME
       failsafe_context - The SELinux fail safe context configuration file
DESCRIPTION
       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:
              /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/failsafe_context
       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:
              get_default_context(3)
              get_ordered_context_list(3)
              get_ordered_context_list_with_level(3)
              get_default_context_with_level(3)
              get_default_context_with_role(3)
              get_default_context_with_rolelevel(3)
              query_user_context(3)
              manual_user_enter_context(3)
FILE FORMAT
       The file consists of a single line entry as follows:
              role:type[:range]
       Where:
              role type range
                     A role, type and optional range (for MCS/MLS),  separated
                     by  colons  (:) to form a valid login process context for
                     an administrator to access the system.
