+ Attempt to obtain a custom security context role from PAM environment. If
+ MLS is on obtain also sensitivity level. This option and the select_context
+ option are mutually exclusive. The respective PAM environment variables are
+ SELINUX_ROLE_REQUESTED, SELINUX_LEVEL_REQUESTED, and
+ SELINUX_USE_CURRENT_RANGE. The first two variables are self describing and
+ the last one if set to 1 makes the PAM module behave as if the
+ use_current_range was specified on the command line of the module.
+
use_current_range
- Use the sensitivity range of the process for the user context. This option
- and the select_context option are mutually exclusive.
+ Use the sensitivity level of the current process for the user context
+ instead of the default level. Also suppresses asking of the sensitivity
+ level from the user or obtaining it from PAM environment.
