9 The securetty_types file contains a list of types associated to secure
10 tty type that are defined in the policy for use by SELinux-aware appliā
11 cations.
12
13 selinux_securetty_types_path(3) will return the active policy path to
14 this file. The default securetty types file is:
15 /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/securetty_types
16
17 Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file
18 config (see selinux_config(5)).
19
20 selinux_check_securetty_context(3) reads this file to determine if a
21 context is for a secure tty defined in the active policy.
22
23 SELinux-aware applications such as newrole(1) use this information to
24 check the status of a tty.
25
27 Each line in the file consists of the following entry:
28
29 type
30 One or more type entries that are defined in the policy
31 for secure tty devices.
