gss_wrap(3) gss_wrap(3)
NAME [Toc] [Back]
gss_wrap() - attach a message integrity code (MIC) to a message, and
optionally encrypt the message content
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <gssapi.h>
OM_uint32 gss_wrap (
OM_uint32 *minor_status,
const gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
int conf_req_flag,
gss_qop_t qop_req,
const gss_buffer_t input_message_buffer,
int *conf_state,
gss_buffer_t output_message_buffer)
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The gss_wrap() routine attaches a cryptographic message integrity code
(MIC) and optionally encrypts the input_message. The output_message
contains both the MIC and the message.
Although the qop_req parameter enables a choice between several
qualities of protection, if you specify an unsupported protection, the
gss_wrap() routine returns a status of GSS_S_FAILURE.
Input Parameters [Toc] [Back]
context_handle Specifies the context on which the message is
sent.
conf_req_flag Specifies the requested level of confidentiality
and integrity services, as follows:
Non-zero Both confidentiality and integrity
services are requested.
Zero Only integrity services are
requested.
qop_req Specifies the cryptographic algorithm, or
quality of protection. A mechanism-specific
default may be requested by setting qop_req to
GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT.
input_message_buffer Specifies the message to be protected.
Output Parameters [Toc] [Back]
conf_state Returns the requested level of confidentiality
and integrity services, as follows:
Non-zero Confidentiality, data origin,
authentication, and integrity

services have been applied.
Zero Only integrity and data origin
services have been applied.
output_message_buffer Returns the buffer to receive the protected
message.
minor_status Returns a status code from the security
mechanism.
STATUS CODES [Toc] [Back]
The following status codes can be returned:
GSS_S_COMPLETE The routine was completed successfully.
GSS_S_CONTEXT_EXPIRED The context has already expired.
GSS_S_CREDENTIALS_EXPIRED [Toc] [Back]
The context is recognized but the associated
credentials have expired.
GSS_S_FAILURE The routine failed. Check the minor_status
parameter for details.
GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT The context identified in the context_handle
parameter was not valid.
GSS_S_BAD_QOP The specified QOP is not supported by the
mechanism.
