No, I mean there are a lot of types of passive voice. For example, semi passive and so on.
I don't know the others.

There are 4: a 'true passive' (with or without an agent), pseudo-passive, the semi-passive, and the statal passive.

The context is the evaluation of a past participle as being a subject complement (adjective) or part of a verb phrase.
