       sia_chk_invoker  - Check invoker routine for SIA (Security
       Integration Architecture)

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       #include <sia.h> #include <siad.h>

       int sia_chk_invoker(
               void );

LIBRARY    [Toc]    [Back]

       Standard C library (libc.so and libc.a)

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The sia_chk_invoker() routine checks the calling  application
  for  appropriate  privileges,  typically  root,  for
       accessing and changing security sensitive information.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The sia_chk_invoker() routine returns either SIASUCCESS or
       SIAFAIL.

ERRORS    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  errno value is not (normally) set explicitly by sia_*
       routines. The errno values are  those  returned  from  the
       dynamic  loader  interface,  from  dependent (siad_*) routines,
 or from malloc. Possible  errors  include  resource
       constraints  (no  memory) and various authentication failures.
