NAME

gss_process_context_token() — process a context to the security service

SYNOPSIS

#include <gssapi.h>

OM_uint32 gss_process_context_token (

OM_uint32 *minor_status, const gss_ctx_id_t *context_handle, const gss_buffer_t input_token_buffer)

DESCRIPTION

The gss_process_context_token() routine passes tokens generated by the gss_delete_security_context() routine to the security service.

Usually, tokens are associated with either the context establishment or with per-message security services. If the tokens are associated with the context establishment, they are passed to the gss_init_sec_context() or gss_accept_sec_context() routine. If the tokens are associated with the per-message security service, they are passed to the gss_verify() or gss_unseal() routine.

Tokens generated by the gss_delete_security_context() routine are passed by the gss_process_context_token() routine to the security service for processing.

Input Parameters

context_handle

Specifies the context handle on which the security service processes the token.

input_token_buffer

Specifies an opaque pointer to the first byte of the token to be processed.

Output Parameters

minor_status

Returns a status code from the security mechanism.

STATUS CODES

The following status codes can be returned:

GSS_S_COMPLETE

The routine was completed successfully.

GSS_S_DEFECTIVE_TOKEN

Consistency checks performed on the input_token parameter failed.

GSS_S_FAILURE

The routine failed. See the minor_status parameter return value for more information.

GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT

The supplied context handle did not refer to a valid context.
