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_join_session_keyring - Join a different session keyring SYNOPSIS
#include <keyutils.h> key_serial_t keyctl_join_session_keyring(const char *name); DESCRIPTION
keyctl_join_session_keyring() changes the session keyring to which a process is subscribed. If name is NULL then a new anonymous keyring will be created, and the process will be subscribed to that. If name points to a string, then if a keyring of that name is available, the process will attempt to subscribe to that keyring, giving an error if that is not permitted; otherwise a new keyring of that name is created and attached as the session keyring. To attach to an extant named keyring, the keyring must have search permission available to the calling process. RETURN VALUE
On success keyctl_join_session_keyring() returns the serial number of the key it found or created. On error, the value -1 will be returned and errno will have been set to an appropriate error. ERRORS
ENOMEM Insufficient memory to create a key. EDQUOT The key quota for this user would be exceeded by creating this key or linking it to the keyring. EACCES The named keyring exists, but is not searchable 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
