NAME

     au_bsm_to_socket_type, au_socket_type_to_bsm -- convert between BSM and local socket types

LIBRARY

     Basic Security Module Library (libbsm, -lbsm)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <bsm/libbsm.h>

     int
     au_bsm_to_socket_type(u_short bsm_socket_type, int *local_socket_typep);

     u_short
     au_socket_type_to_bsm(int local_socket_type);

DESCRIPTION

     These interfaces may be used to convert between the local and BSM socket types.  The au_bsm_to_socket_type() function accepts a BSM socket
     type, bsm_socket_type, and converts it to a local socket type, such as those passed to socket(2), that will be stored in the integer pointed
     to by local_socket_typep if successful.  This call will fail if the BSM socket type cannot be mapped into a local socket type, which may
     occur if the socket token was generated on another operating system.

     au_socket_type_to_bsm() function accepts a local socket type, and returns the BSM socket type for it.  This call cannot fail, and instead
     returns a BSM socket type indicating to a later decoder that the socket type could not be encoded.

RETURN VALULES

     On success, au_bsm_to_socket_type() returns 0 and a converted socket type; on failure, it returns -1 but does not set errno(2).

     On success, au_strerror() returns a pointer to an error string; on failure it will return NULL.

HISTORY

     au_bsm_to_socket_type() and au_socket_type_to_bsm() were introduced in OpenBSM 1.1.

NAME

     au_bsm_to_errno, au_errno_to_bsm, au_strerror -- convert between BSM and local error numbers

LIBRARY

     Basic Security Module Library (libbsm, -lbsm)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <bsm/libbsm.h>

     int
     au_bsm_to_errno(u_char bsm_error, int *errorp);

     u_char
     au_errno_to_bsm(int error);

     const char *
     au_strerror(int bsm_error);

DESCRIPTION

     These interfaces may be used to convert between the local ( errno(2)) and BSM error number spaces found in BSM return tokens.

     The au_bsm_to_errno() function accepts a BSM error value, bsm_error, and converts it to an errno(2) that will be stored in the integer
     pointed to by errorp if successful.  This call will fail if the BSM error cannot be mapped into a local error number, which may occur if the
     return token was generated on another operating system.

     The au_errno_to_bsm() function accepts a local errno(2) value, and returns the BSM error number for it.  This call cannot fail, and instead
     returns a BSM error number indicating to a later decoder that the error could not be encoded.

     The au_strerror() function converts a BSM error value to a string, generally by converting first to a local error number and using the local
     strerror(3) function, but will also work for errors that are not locally defined.

RETURN VALULES

     On success, au_bsm_to_errno() returns 0 and a converted error value; on failure, it returns -1 but does not set errno(2).

     On success, au_strerror() returns a pointer to an error string; on failure it will return NULL.

BUGS

     au_strerror is unable to provide localized strings for errors not available in the local operating system.
