PAM_GETENVLIST(3) BSD Library Functions Manual PAM_GETENVLIST(3)NAME
pam_getenvlist -- returns a list of all the PAM environment variables
LIBRARY
Pluggable Authentication Module Library (libpam, -lpam)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <security/pam_appl.h>
char **
pam_getenvlist(pam_handle_t *pamh);
DESCRIPTION
The pam_getenvlist() function returns a copy of the given PAM context's environment list as a pointer to an array of strings. The last ele-
ment in the array is NULL. The pointer is suitable for assignment to environ.
The array and the strings it lists are allocated using malloc(3), and should be released using free(3) after use:
char **envlist, **env;
envlist = environ;
environ = pam_getenvlist(pamh);
/* do something nifty */
for (env = environ; *env != NULL; env++)
free(*env);
free(environ);
environ = envlist;
RETURN VALUES
The pam_getenvlist() function returns NULL on failure.

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.

The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
