.TH PAM_SET_DATA 3PAM "Oct 13, 1998"
.SH NAME
pam_set_data, pam_get_data \- PAM routines to maintain module specific state
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fBcc\fR [ \fIflag\fR ... ] \fIfile\fR ... \fB-lpam\fR [ \fIlibrary\fR ... ]
#include <security/pam_appl.h>
\fBint\fR \fBpam_set_data\fR(\fBpam_handle_t *\fR\fIpamh\fR,
\fBconst char *\fR\fImodule_data_name\fR, \fBvoid *\fR\fIdata\fR,
\fBvoid (*\fR\fIcleanup\fR) (pam_handle_t *\fIpamh\fR, \fBvoid *\fR\fIdata\fR,
\fBint\fR \fIpam_end_status\fR));

\fBint\fR \fBpam_get_data\fR(\fBconst pam_handle_t *\fR\fIpamh\fR,
\fBconst char *\fR\fImodule_data_name\fR, \fBconst void **\fR\fIdata\fR);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBpam_set_data()\fR and \fBpam_get_data()\fR functions allow \fBPAM\fR
service modules to access and update module specific information as needed.
These functions should not be used by applications.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpam_set_data()\fR function stores module specific data within the
\fBPAM\fR handle \fIpamh\fR. The \fImodule_data_name\fR argument uniquely
identifies the data, and the \fIdata\fR argument represents the actual data.
The \fImodule_data_name\fR argument should be unique across all services.
.sp
.LP
The \fIcleanup\fR function frees up any memory used by the \fIdata\fR after it
is no longer needed, and is invoked by \fBpam_end()\fR. The \fIcleanup\fR
function takes as its arguments a pointer to the \fBPAM\fR handle, \fIpamh\fR,
a pointer to the actual data, \fIdata\fR, and a status code,
\fIpam_end_status\fR. The status code determines exactly what state information
needs to be purged.
.sp
.LP
If \fBpam_set_data()\fR is called and module data already exists from a prior
call to \fBpam_set_data()\fR under the same \fImodule_data_name\fR, then the
existing \fIdata\fR is replaced by the new \fIdata\fR, and the existing
\fIcleanup\fR function is replaced by the new \fIcleanup\fR function.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpam_get_data()\fR function retrieves module-specific data stored in the
\fBPAM\fR handle, \fIpamh\fR, identified by the unique name,
\fImodule_data_name\fR. The \fIdata\fR argument is assigned the address of the
requested data. The \fIdata\fR retrieved by \fBpam_get_data()\fR should not be
modified or freed. The \fIdata\fR will be released by \fBpam_end()\fR.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
In addition to the return values listed in \fBpam\fR(3PAM), the following value
may also be returned:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBPAM_NO_MODULE_DATA\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 22n
No module specific data is present.

The interfaces in \fBlibpam\fR are MT-Safe only if each thread within the
multithreaded application uses its own \fBPAM\fR handle.
