THREAD-KEYRING(7) Linux Programmer's Manual THREAD-KEYRING(7)NAME
thread-keyring - per-thread keyring
DESCRIPTION
The thread keyring is a keyring used to anchor keys on behalf of a process. It is created only when a thread requests it. The thread
keyring has the name (description) _tid.
A special serial number value, KEY_SPEC_THREAD_KEYRING, is defined that can be used in lieu of the actual serial number of the calling
thread's thread keyring.
From the keyctl(1) utility, '@t' can be used instead of a numeric key ID in much the same way, but as keyctl(1) is a program run after
forking, this is of no utility.
Thread keyrings are not inherited across clone(2) and fork(2) and are cleared by execve(2). A thread keyring is destroyed when the thread
that refers to it terminates.
Initially, a thread does not have a thread keyring. If a thread doesn't have a thread keyring when it is accessed, then it will be created
if it is to be modified; otherwise the operation fails with the error ENOKEY.

process-keyring - per-process shared keyring
DESCRIPTION
The process keyring is a keyring used to anchor keys on behalf of a process. It is created only when a process requests it. The process
keyring has the name (description) _pid.
A special serial number value, KEY_SPEC_PROCESS_KEYRING, is defined that can be used in lieu of the actual serial number of the calling
process's process keyring.
From the keyctl(1) utility, '@p' can be used instead of a numeric key ID in much the same way, but since keyctl(1) is a program run after
forking, this is of no utility.
A thread created using the clone(2) CLONE_THREAD flag has the same process keyring as the caller of clone(2). When a new process is cre-
ated using fork() it initially has no process keyring. A process's process keyring is cleared on execve(2). The process keyring is
destroyed when the last thread that refers to it terminates.
If a process doesn't have a process keyring when it is accessed, then the process keyring will be created if the keyring is to be modified;
otherwise, the error ENOKEY results.

Last week our legacy SCO OpenServer 5.0.6 server started showing "panic" errors about bad blocks/sectors on hard drive.
