KEYCTL_SET_REQKEY_KEYRING(3)                                Linux Key Management Calls                                KEYCTL_SET_REQKEY_KEYRING(3)

NAME
keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring - Set the implicit destination keyring SYNOPSIS
#include <keyutils.h> long keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring(int reqkey_defl); DESCRIPTION
keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring() sets the default destination for implicit key requests for the current thread and returns the old setting. After this operation has been issued, keys acquired by implicit key requests, such as might be performed by open() on an AFS or NFS filesystem, will be linked by default to the specified keyring by this function. The valid values of reqkey_defl are: KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_NO_CHANGE This makes no change to the current setting. KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_THREAD_KEYRING This makes the thread-specific keyring the default destination. KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_PROCESS_KEYRING This makes the process-specific keyring the default destination. KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_SESSION_KEYRING This makes the session keyring the default destination. KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_USER_KEYRING This makes the UID-specific keyring the default destination. KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_USER_SESSION_KEYRING This makes the UID-specific session keyring the default destination. KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_DEFAULT This selects the default behaviour which is to use the thread-specific keyring if there is one, otherwise the process-specific keyring if there is one, otherwise the session keyring if there is one, otherwise the UID-specific session keyring. This setting is inherited across fork() and exec(). RETURN VALUE
On success keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring() returns 0. On error, the value -1 will be returned and errno will have been set to an appropriate error. ERRORS
EINVAL The value of reqkey_defl is invalid. LINKING
This is a library function that can be found in libkeyutils. When linking, -lkeyutils should be specified to the linker. SEE ALSO

NAME
keyctl_link - Link a key to a keyring keyctl_unlink - Unlink a key from a keyring SYNOPSIS
#include <keyutils.h> long keyctl_link(key_serial_t key, key_serial_t keyring); long keyctl_unlink(key_serial_t key, key_serial_t keyring); DESCRIPTION
keyctl_link() creates a link from keyring to key, displacing any link to another key of the same type and description in that keyring if one exists. keyctl_unlink() removes the link from keyring to key if it exists. The caller must have write permission on a keyring to be able create or remove links in it. The caller must have link permission on a key to be able to create a link to it. RETURN VALUE
On success keyctl_link() and keyctl_unlink() return 0. On error, the value -1 will be returned and errno will have been set to an appro- priate error. ERRORS
ENOKEY The key or the keyring specified are invalid. EKEYEXPIRED The key or the keyring specified have expired. EKEYREVOKED The key or the keyring specified have been revoked. EACCES The keyring exists, but is not writable by the calling process. For keyctl_link() only: ENOMEM Insufficient memory to expand the keyring EDQUOT Expanding the keyring would exceed the keyring owner's quota. EACCES The key exists, but is not linkable by the calling process. LINKING
This is a library function that can be found in libkeyutils. When linking, -lkeyutils should be specified to the linker. SEE ALSO
