              gets the key context from the specified process PID
       --current, --self
              gets the context from the current process
       --current-exec, --self-exec
              gets the exec context from the current process
       --current-fs, --self-fs
              gets the fscreate context from the current process
       --current-key, --self-key
              gets the key context from the current process
       --parent
              gets the context from the parent of the current process
       --parent-exec
              gets the exec context from the parent of the current process
       --parent-fs
              gets the fscreate context from the parent of the current process
       --parent-key
              gets the key context from the parent of the current process
       Additional  argument  CONTEXT  may  be  provided and will be used if no
       options have been specified to make secon get its context from  another
       source.   If  that  argument  is  -  then the context will be read from
       stdin.
       If there is no argument, secon will try reading a context  from  stdin,
       if  that  is  not  a tty, otherwise secon will act as though --self had
       been passed.
       If none of --user, --role, --type, --level or  --mls-range  is  passed.
       Then all of them will be output.
