au_bsm_to_socket_type,
au_socket_type_to_bsm —
convert between BSM and local socket types
Basic Security Module Library (libbsm, -lbsm)
<bsm/libbsm.h>
int
au_bsm_to_socket_type(u_short
bsm_socket_type, int *local_socket_typep)
u_short
au_socket_type_to_bsm(int
local_socket_type)
These interfaces may be used to convert between the local and BSM
socket types. The
au_bsm_to_socket_type()
function accepts a BSM socket type, bsm_socket_type,
and converts it to a local socket type, such as those passed to
socket(2), that will be stored in the integer pointed to
by local_socket_typep if successful. This call will
fail if the BSM socket type cannot be mapped into a local socket type, which
may occur if the socket token was generated on another operating system.
au_socket_type_to_bsm()
function accepts a local socket type, and returns the BSM socket type for
it. This call cannot fail, and instead returns a BSM socket type indicating
to a later decoder that the socket type could not be encoded.
On success, au_bsm_to_socket_type()
returns 0 and a converted socket type; on failure, it returns -1 but does
not set errno(2).
On success,
au_strerror()
returns a pointer to an error string; on failure it will return
NULL.
au_bsm_to_domain(3), au_domain_to_bsm(3), au_to_socket_ex(3), libbsm(3)
au_bsm_to_socket_type() and
au_socket_type_to_bsm() were introduced in OpenBSM
1.1.
These functions were implemented by Robert Watson under contract to Apple Inc.
The Basic Security Module (BSM) interface to audit records and audit event stream format were defined by Sun Microsystems.
