default_type(5) SELinux configuration default_type(5)
default_type - The SELinux default type configuration file
The default_type file contains entries that allow SELinux-aware
applications such as newrole(1) to select a default type for a role
if one is not supplied.
selinux_default_type_path(3) will return the active policy path to
this file. The default, default type file is:
/etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/default_type
Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file
config (see selinux_config(5)).
get_default_type(3) reads this file to determine a type for the
active policy.
Each line within the default_type file is formatted with role:type
entries where:
role
The SELinux role.
type
The domain type that is returned for this role.
