sia_getpasswd(3)					     Library Functions Manual						  sia_getpasswd(3)

NAME
       sia_getpasswd, sia_getgroup  - interface to the getpw* and getgr* routines for SIA (Security Integration Architecture)

LIBRARY
       Standard C library (libc.so and libc.a)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sia.h>
       #include <siad.h>

       int sia_getpasswd(
	    int    function,
	    int  reentrant,
	    union sia_get_params *params);

       int sia_getgroup(
	    int    function,
	    int  reentrant,
	    union sia_get_params *params);

PARAMETERS
       function
	      The function parameter is a subfunction selection code as defined by P_SET in the siad.h file.

       reentrant
	      The  reentrant  parameter is a flag which is either REENTRANT (1) or NON_REENTRANT (0).  NON_REENTRANT indicates that the result and
	      buffer pointers passed in the params arguments will be returned pointing to static data.	REENTRANT indicates that result and buffer
	      are used as passed (caller provided storage).

       params The sia_get_params is defined as follows: typedef struct {
		char *name;
		gid_t gid;
		struct group *result;
		char *buffer;
		int len;
		int pkgind; } group_params;

	      typedef struct {
		char *name;
		uid_t uid;
		struct passwd *result;
		char *buffer;
		int len;
		int pkgind; } passwd_params;

	      union sia_get_params {
		group_params group;
		passwd_params passwd; };

DESCRIPTION
       The  sia_getpasswd()  routine  provides	thread locking for the libc_r routines (-D_THREAD_SAFE), provides static storage for non reentrant
       getpw* routines, and calls the appropriate siad_getpw* routine.	This routine is called	by  getpwnam(),  getpwnam_r(),	getpwuid(),  getp-
       wuid_r(), getpwent(), and getpwent_r().

       The  sia_getgroup()  routine  provides thread locking for libc_r routines (-D_THREAD_SAFE), provide static storage for non reentrant getgr*
       routines, and calls the appropriate siad_getgr* routine.  This routine is called by  getgrnam(),  getgrnam_r(),	getgrgid(),  getgrgid_r(),
       getgrent(), and getgrent_r().

RETURN VALUES
       The sia_getgroup() and sia_getpasswd() routines return either SIASUCCESS or SIAFAIL.

ERRORS
       The errno value is not (normally) set explicitly by sia_* routines.  The errno values are those returned from the dynamic loader interface,
       from dependent (siad_*) routines, or from malloc.  Possible errors include resource constraints	(no  memory)  and  various  authentication
       failures.
