KEYCTL_CHOWN(3) 					    Linux Key Management Calls						   KEYCTL_CHOWN(3)

NAME

       keyctl_chown - Change the ownership of a key

SYNOPSIS

       #include <keyutils.h>

       long keyctl_chown(key_serial_t key, uid_t uid, gid_t gid);

DESCRIPTION

       keyctl_chown() changes the user and group ownership details of a key.

       A setting of -1 on either uid or gid will cause that setting to be ignored.

       A  process  that  does  not have the SysAdmin capability may not change a key's UID or set the key's GID to a value that does not match the
       process's GID or one of its group list.

       The caller must have setattr permission on a key to be able change its ownership.

RETURN VALUE

       On success keyctl_chown() returns 0 .  On error, the value -1 will be returned and errno will have been set to an appropriate error.

ERRORS

       ENOKEY The specied key does not exist.

       EKEYEXPIRED
	      The specified key has expired.

       EKEYREVOKED
	      The specified key has been revoked.

       EDQUOT Changing the UID to the one specified would run that UID out of quota.

       EACCES The key exists, but does not grant setattr permission to the calling process.

LINKING

       This is a library function that can be found in libkeyutils.  When linking, -lkeyutils should be specified to the linker.

KEYCTL_LINK(3)                                              Linux Key Management Calls                                              KEYCTL_LINK(3)

NAME

       keyctl_link - Link a key to a keyring keyctl_unlink - Unlink a key from a keyring

SYNOPSIS

       #include <keyutils.h>

       long keyctl_link(key_serial_t key, key_serial_t keyring);

       long keyctl_unlink(key_serial_t key, key_serial_t keyring);

DESCRIPTION

       keyctl_link()  creates  a  link from keyring to key, displacing any link to another key of the same type and description in that keyring if
       one exists.

       keyctl_unlink() removes the link from keyring to key if it exists.

       The caller must have write permission on a keyring to be able create or remove links in it.

       The caller must have link permission on a key to be able to create a link to it.

RETURN VALUE

       On success keyctl_link() and keyctl_unlink() return 0.  On error, the value -1 will be returned and errno will have been set to  an  appro-
       priate error.

ERRORS

       ENOKEY The key or the keyring specified are invalid.

       EKEYEXPIRED
              The key or the keyring specified have expired.

       EKEYREVOKED
              The key or the keyring specified have been revoked.

       EACCES The keyring exists, but is not writable by the calling process.

       For keyctl_link() only:

       ENOMEM Insufficient memory to expand the keyring

       EDQUOT Expanding the keyring would exceed the keyring owner's quota.

       EACCES The key exists, but is not linkable 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.
