NAME

door_cred - return credential information associated with the client

SYNOPSIS

cc -mt [ flag... ] file... [ library... ]
#include <door.h>
int door_cred(door_cred_t *info);

DESCRIPTION

The door_cred() function returns credential information associated with the client (if any) of the current door invocation.

The contents of the info argument include the following fields:

uid_t   dc_euid;        /* Effective uid of client */
gid_t   dc_egid;        /* Effective gid of client */
uid_t   dc_ruid;        /* Real uid of client */
gid_t   dc_rgid;        /* Real gid of client */
pid_t   dc_pid;         /* pid of client */

The credential information associated with the client refers to the information from the immediate caller; not necessarily from the first thread in a chain of door calls.

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, door_cred() returns 0. Otherwise, door_cred() returns −1 and sets errno to indicate the error.

ERRORS

The door_cred() function will fail if:

EFAULT

The address of the info argument is invalid.

EINVAL

There is no associated door client.

USAGE

The door_cred() function is obsolete. Applications should use the door_ucred(3C) function in place of door_cred().
