-Developing with GSSAPI
-======================
-
-The GSSAPI (Generic Security Services API) allows applications to
-communicate securely using Kerberos 5 or other security mechanisms.
-We recommend using the GSSAPI (or a higher-level framework which
-encompasses GSSAPI, such as SASL) for secure network communication
-over using the libkrb5 API directly.
-
-GSSAPIv2 is specified in :rfc:`2743` and :rfc:`2744`. Also see
-:rfc:`7546` for a description of how to use the GSSAPI in a client or
-server program.
-
-This documentation will describe how various ways of using the
-GSSAPI will behave with the krb5 mechanism as implemented in MIT krb5,
-as well as krb5-specific extensions to the GSSAPI.
-
-
-Name types
-----------
-
-A GSSAPI application can name a local or remote entity by calling
-gss_import_name_, specifying a name type and a value. The following
-name types are supported by the krb5 mechanism:
-
-* **GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE**: The value should be a string of the
- form ``service`` or ``service@hostname``. This is the most common
- way to name target services when initiating a security context, and
- is the most likely name type to work across multiple mechanisms.
-
-* **GSS_KRB5_NT_PRINCIPAL_NAME**: The value should be a principal name
- string. This name type only works with the krb5 mechanism, and is
- defined in the ``<gssapi/gssapi_krb5.h>`` header.
-
-* **GSS_C_NT_USER_NAME** or **GSS_C_NULL_OID**: The value is treated
- as an unparsed principal name string, as above. These name types
- may work with mechanisms other than krb5, but will have different
- interpretations in those mechanisms. **GSS_C_NT_USER_NAME** is
- intended to be used with a local username, which will parse into a
- single-component principal in the default realm.
-
-* **GSS_C_NT_ANONYMOUS**: The value is ignored. The anonymous
- principal is used, allowing a client to authenticate to a server
- without asserting a particular identity (which may or may not be
- allowed by a particular server or Kerberos realm).
-
-* **GSS_C_NT_MACHINE_UID_NAME**: The value is uid_t object. On
- Unix-like systems, the username of the uid is looked up in the
- system user database and the resulting username is parsed as a
- principal name.
-
-* **GSS_C_NT_STRING_UID_NAME**: As above, but the value is a decimal
- string representation of the uid.
-
-* **GSS_C_NT_EXPORT_NAME**: The value must be the result of a
- gss_export_name_ call.
-
-* **GSS_KRB5_NT_ENTERPRISE_NAME**: The value should be a krb5
- enterprise name string (see :rfc:`6806` section 5), in the form
- ``user@suffix``. This name type is used to convey alias names, and
- is defined in the ``<gssapi/gssapi_krb5.h>`` header. (New in
- release 1.17.)
-
-* **GSS_KRB5_NT_X509_CERT**: The value should be an X.509 certificate
- encoded according to :rfc:`5280`. This name form can be used for
- the desired_name parameter of gss_acquire_cred_impersonate_name(),
- to identify the S4U2Self user by certificate. (New in release
- 1.19.)
-
-
-Initiator credentials
----------------------
-
-A GSSAPI client application uses gss_init_sec_context_ to establish a
-security context. The *initiator_cred_handle* parameter determines
-what tickets are used to establish the connection. An application can
-either pass **GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL** to use the default client
-credential, or it can use gss_acquire_cred_ beforehand to acquire an
-initiator credential. The call to gss_acquire_cred_ may include a
-*desired_name* parameter, or it may pass **GSS_C_NO_NAME** if it does
-not have a specific name preference.
-
-If the desired name for a krb5 initiator credential is a host-based
-name, it is converted to a principal name of the form
-``service/hostname`` in the local realm, where *hostname* is the local
-hostname if not specified. The hostname will be canonicalized using
-forward name resolution, and possibly also using reverse name
-resolution depending on the value of the **rdns** variable in
-:ref:`libdefaults`.
-
-If a desired name is specified in the call to gss_acquire_cred_, the
-krb5 mechanism will attempt to find existing tickets for that client
-principal name in the default credential cache or collection. If the
-default cache type does not support a collection, and the default
-cache contains credentials for a different principal than the desired
-name, a **GSS_S_CRED_UNAVAIL** error will be returned with a minor
-code indicating a mismatch.
-
-If no existing tickets are available for the desired name, but the
-name has an entry in the default client :ref:`keytab_definition`, the
-krb5 mechanism will acquire initial tickets for the name using the
-default client keytab.
-
-If no desired name is specified, credential acquisition will be
-deferred until the credential is used in a call to
-gss_init_sec_context_ or gss_inquire_cred_. If the call is to
-gss_init_sec_context_, the target name will be used to choose a client
-principal name using the credential cache selection facility. (This
-facility might, for instance, try to choose existing tickets for a
-client principal in the same realm as the target service). If there
-are no existing tickets for the chosen principal, but it is present in
-the default client keytab, the krb5 mechanism will acquire initial
-tickets using the keytab.
-
-If the target name cannot be used to select a client principal
-(because the credentials are used in a call to gss_inquire_cred_), or
-if the credential cache selection facility cannot choose a principal
-for it, the default credential cache will be selected if it exists and
-contains tickets.
-
-If the default credential cache does not exist, but the default client
-keytab does, the krb5 mechanism will try to acquire initial tickets
-for the first principal in the default client keytab.
-
-If the krb5 mechanism acquires initial tickets using the default
-client keytab, the resulting tickets will be stored in the default
-cache or collection, and will be refreshed by future calls to
-gss_acquire_cred_ as they approach their expire time.
-
-
-Acceptor names
---------------
-
-A GSSAPI server application uses gss_accept_sec_context_ to establish
-a security context based on tokens provided by the client. The
-*acceptor_cred_handle* parameter determines what
-:ref:`keytab_definition` entries may be authenticated to by the
-client, if the krb5 mechanism is used.
-
-The simplest choice is to pass **GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL** as the acceptor
-credential. In this case, clients may authenticate to any service
-principal in the default keytab (typically |keytab|, or the value of
-the **KRB5_KTNAME** environment variable). This is the recommended
-approach if the server application has no specific requirements to the
-contrary.
-
-A server may acquire an acceptor credential with gss_acquire_cred_ and
-a *cred_usage* of **GSS_C_ACCEPT** or **GSS_C_BOTH**. If the
-*desired_name* parameter is **GSS_C_NO_NAME**, then clients will be
-allowed to authenticate to any service principal in the default
-keytab, just as if no acceptor credential was supplied.
-
-If a server wishes to specify a *desired_name* to gss_acquire_cred_,
-the most common choice is a host-based name. If the host-based
-*desired_name* contains just a *service*, then clients will be allowed
-to authenticate to any host-based service principal (that is, a
-principal of the form ``service/hostname@REALM``) for the named
-service, regardless of hostname or realm, as long as it is present in
-the default keytab. If the input name contains both a *service* and a
-*hostname*, clients will be allowed to authenticate to any host-based
-principal for the named service and hostname, regardless of realm.
-
-.. note::
-
- If a *hostname* is specified, it will be canonicalized
- using forward name resolution, and possibly also using
- reverse name resolution depending on the value of the
- **rdns** variable in :ref:`libdefaults`.
-
-.. note::
-
- If the **ignore_acceptor_hostname** variable in
- :ref:`libdefaults` is enabled, then *hostname* will be
- ignored even if one is specified in the input name.
-
-.. note::
-
- In MIT krb5 versions prior to 1.10, and in Heimdal's
- implementation of the krb5 mechanism, an input name with
- just a *service* is treated like an input name of
- ``service@localhostname``, where *localhostname* is the
- string returned by gethostname().
-
-If the *desired_name* is a krb5 principal name or a local system name
-type which is mapped to a krb5 principal name, clients will only be
-allowed to authenticate to that principal in the default keytab.
-
-
-Name Attributes
----------------
-
-In release 1.8 or later, the gss_inquire_name_ and
-gss_get_name_attribute_ functions, specified in :rfc:`6680`, can be
-used to retrieve name attributes from the *src_name* returned by
-gss_accept_sec_context_. The following attributes are defined when
-the krb5 mechanism is used:
-
-.. _gssapi_authind_attr:
-
-* "auth-indicators" attribute:
-
-This attribute will be included in the gss_inquire_name_ output if the
-ticket contains :ref:`authentication indicators <auth_indicator>`.
-One indicator is returned per invocation of gss_get_name_attribute_,
-so multiple invocations may be necessary to retrieve all of the
-indicators from the ticket. (New in release 1.15.)
-
-
-Credential store extensions
----------------------------
-
-Beginning with release 1.11, the following GSSAPI extensions declared
-in ``<gssapi/gssapi_ext.h>`` can be used to specify how credentials
-are acquired or stored::
-
- struct gss_key_value_element_struct {
- const char *key;
- const char *value;
- };
- typedef struct gss_key_value_element_struct gss_key_value_element_desc;
-
- struct gss_key_value_set_struct {
- OM_uint32 count;
- gss_key_value_element_desc *elements;
- };
- typedef const struct gss_key_value_set_struct gss_key_value_set_desc;
- typedef const gss_key_value_set_desc *gss_const_key_value_set_t;
-
- OM_uint32 gss_acquire_cred_from(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- const gss_name_t desired_name,
- OM_uint32 time_req,
- const gss_OID_set desired_mechs,
- gss_cred_usage_t cred_usage,
- gss_const_key_value_set_t cred_store,
- gss_cred_id_t *output_cred_handle,
- gss_OID_set *actual_mechs,
- OM_uint32 *time_rec);
-
- OM_uint32 gss_store_cred_into(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_cred_id_t input_cred_handle,
- gss_cred_usage_t cred_usage,
- const gss_OID desired_mech,
- OM_uint32 overwrite_cred,
- OM_uint32 default_cred,
- gss_const_key_value_set_t cred_store,
- gss_OID_set *elements_stored,
- gss_cred_usage_t *cred_usage_stored);
-
-The additional *cred_store* parameter allows the caller to specify
-information about how the credentials should be obtained and stored.
-The following options are supported by the krb5 mechanism:
-
-* **ccache**: For acquiring initiator credentials, the name of the
- :ref:`credential cache <ccache_definition>` to which the handle will
- refer. For storing credentials, the name of the cache or collection
- where the credentials will be stored (see below).
-
-* **client_keytab**: For acquiring initiator credentials, the name of
- the :ref:`keytab <keytab_definition>` which will be used, if
- necessary, to refresh the credentials in the cache.
-
-* **keytab**: For acquiring acceptor credentials, the name of the
- :ref:`keytab <keytab_definition>` to which the handle will refer.
- In release 1.19 and later, this option also determines the keytab to
- be used for verification when initiator credentials are acquired
- using a password and verified.
-
-* **password**: For acquiring initiator credentials, this option
- instructs the mechanism to acquire fresh credentials into a unique
- memory credential cache. This option may not be used with the
- **ccache** or **client_keytab** options, and a *desired_name* must
- be specified. (New in release 1.19.)
-
-* **rcache**: For acquiring acceptor credentials, the name of the
- :ref:`replay cache <rcache_definition>` to be used when processing
- the initiator tokens. (New in release 1.13.)
-
-* **verify**: For acquiring initiator credentials, this option
- instructs the mechanism to verify the credentials by obtaining a
- ticket to a service with a known key. The service key is obtained
- from the keytab specified with the **keytab** option or the default
- keytab. The value may be the name of a principal in the keytab, or
- the empty string. If the empty string is given, any ``host``
- service principal in the keytab may be used. (New in release 1.19.)
-
-In release 1.20 or later, if a collection name is specified for
-**cache** in a call to gss_store_cred_into(), an existing cache for
-the client principal within the collection will be selected, or a new
-cache will be created within the collection. If *overwrite_cred* is
-false and the selected credential cache already exists, a
-**GSS_S_DUPLICATE_ELEMENT** error will be returned. If *default_cred*
-is true, the primary cache of the collection will be switched to the
-selected cache.
-
-
-Importing and exporting credentials
------------------------------------
-
-The following GSSAPI extensions can be used to import and export
-credentials (declared in ``<gssapi/gssapi_ext.h>``)::
-
- OM_uint32 gss_export_cred(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_cred_id_t cred_handle,
- gss_buffer_t token);
-
- OM_uint32 gss_import_cred(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_buffer_t token,
- gss_cred_id_t *cred_handle);
-
-The first function serializes a GSSAPI credential handle into a
-buffer; the second unseralizes a buffer into a GSSAPI credential
-handle. Serializing a credential does not destroy it. If any of the
-mechanisms used in *cred_handle* do not support serialization,
-gss_export_cred will return **GSS_S_UNAVAILABLE**. As with other
-GSSAPI serialization functions, these extensions are only intended to
-work with a matching implementation on the other side; they do not
-serialize credentials in a standardized format.
-
-A serialized credential may contain secret information such as ticket
-session keys. The serialization format does not protect this
-information from eavesdropping or tampering. The calling application
-must take care to protect the serialized credential when communicating
-it over an insecure channel or to an untrusted party.
-
-A krb5 GSSAPI credential may contain references to a credential cache,
-a client keytab, an acceptor keytab, and a replay cache. These
-resources are normally serialized as references to their external
-locations (such as the filename of the credential cache). Because of
-this, a serialized krb5 credential can only be imported by a process
-with similar privileges to the exporter. A serialized credential
-should not be trusted if it originates from a source with lower
-privileges than the importer, as it may contain references to external
-credential cache, keytab, or replay cache resources not accessible to
-the originator.
-
-An exception to the above rule applies when a krb5 GSSAPI credential
-refers to a memory credential cache, as is normally the case for
-delegated credentials received by gss_accept_sec_context_. In this
-case, the contents of the credential cache are serialized, so that the
-resulting token may be imported even if the original memory credential
-cache no longer exists.
-
-
-Constrained delegation (S4U)
-----------------------------
-
-The Microsoft S4U2Self and S4U2Proxy Kerberos protocol extensions
-allow an intermediate service to acquire credentials from a client to
-a target service without requiring the client to delegate a
-ticket-granting ticket, if the KDC is configured to allow it.
-
-To perform a constrained delegation operation, the intermediate
-service must submit to the KDC an "evidence ticket" from the client to
-the intermediate service. An evidence ticket can be acquired when the
-client authenticates to the intermediate service with Kerberos, or
-with an S4U2Self request if the KDC allows it. The MIT krb5 GSSAPI
-library represents an evidence ticket using a "proxy credential",
-which is a special kind of gss_cred_id_t object whose underlying
-credential cache contains the evidence ticket and a krbtgt ticket for
-the intermediate service.
-
-To acquire a proxy credential during client authentication, the
-service should first create an acceptor credential using the
-**GSS_C_BOTH** usage. The application should then pass this
-credential as the *acceptor_cred_handle* to gss_accept_sec_context_,
-and also pass a *delegated_cred_handle* output parameter to receive a
-proxy credential containing the evidence ticket. The output value of
-*delegated_cred_handle* may be a delegated ticket-granting ticket if
-the client sent one, or a proxy credential if not. If the library can
-determine that the client's ticket is not a valid evidence ticket, it
-will place **GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL** in *delegated_cred_handle*.
-
-To acquire a proxy credential using an S4U2Self request, the service
-can use the following GSSAPI extension::
-
- OM_uint32 gss_acquire_cred_impersonate_name(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_cred_id_t icred,
- gss_name_t desired_name,
- OM_uint32 time_req,
- gss_OID_set desired_mechs,
- gss_cred_usage_t cred_usage,
- gss_cred_id_t *output_cred,
- gss_OID_set *actual_mechs,
- OM_uint32 *time_rec);
-
-The parameters to this function are similar to those of
-gss_acquire_cred_, except that *icred* is used to make an S4U2Self
-request to the KDC for a ticket from *desired_name* to the
-intermediate service. Both *icred* and *desired_name* are required
-for this function; passing **GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL** or
-**GSS_C_NO_NAME** will cause the call to fail. *icred* must contain a
-krbtgt ticket for the intermediate service. The result of this
-operation is a proxy credential. (Prior to release 1.18, the result
-of this operation may be a regular credential for *desired_name*, if
-the KDC issues a non-forwardable ticket.)
-
-Once the intermediate service has a proxy credential, it can simply
-pass it to gss_init_sec_context_ as the *initiator_cred_handle*
-parameter, and the desired service as the *target_name* parameter.
-The GSSAPI library will present the krbtgt ticket and evidence ticket
-in the proxy credential to the KDC in an S4U2Proxy request; if the
-intermediate service has the appropriate permissions, the KDC will
-issue a ticket from the client to the target service. The GSSAPI
-library will then use this ticket to authenticate to the target
-service.
-
-If an application needs to find out whether a credential it holds is a
-proxy credential and the name of the intermediate service, it can
-query the credential with the **GSS_KRB5_GET_CRED_IMPERSONATOR** OID
-(new in release 1.16, declared in ``<gssapi/gssapi_krb5.h>``) using
-the gss_inquire_cred_by_oid extension (declared in
-``<gssapi/gssapi_ext.h>``)::
-
- OM_uint32 gss_inquire_cred_by_oid(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- const gss_cred_id_t cred_handle,
- gss_OID desired_object,
- gss_buffer_set_t *data_set);
-
-If the call succeeds and *cred_handle* is a proxy credential,
-*data_set* will be set to a single-element buffer set containing the
-unparsed principal name of the intermediate service. If *cred_handle*
-is not a proxy credential, *data_set* will be set to an empty buffer
-set. If the library does not support the query,
-gss_inquire_cred_by_oid will return **GSS_S_UNAVAILABLE**.
-
-
-Channel binding behavior and GSS_C_CHANNEL_BOUND_FLAG
------------------------------------------------------
-
-GSSAPI channel bindings can be used to limit the scope of a context
-establishment token to a particular protected channel or endpoint,
-such as a TLS channel or server certificate. Channel bindings can be
-supplied via the *input_chan_bindings* parameter to either
-gss_init_sec_context() or gss_accept_sec_context().
-
-If both the initiator and acceptor of a GSSAPI exchange supply
-matching channel bindings, **GSS_C_CHANNEL_BOUND_FLAG** will be
-included in the gss_accept_sec_context() *ret_flags* result. If
-either the initiator or acceptor (or both) do not supply channel
-bindings, the exchange will succeed, but **GSS_C_CHANNEL_BOUND_FLAG**
-will not be included in the return flags. If the acceptor and
-initiator both inlude channel bindings but they do not match, the
-exchange will fail.
-
-If **GSS_C_CHANNEL_BOUND_FLAG** is included in the *req_flags*
-parameter of gss_init_sec_context(), the initiator will add the
-Microsoft KERB_AP_OPTIONS_CBT extension to the Kerberos authenticator.
-This extension requests that the acceptor strictly enforce channel
-bindings, causing the exchange to fail if the acceptor supplies
-channel bindings and the initiator does not. The KERB_AP_OPTIONS_CBT
-extension will also be included if the
-**client_aware_channel_bindings** variable is set to ``true`` in
-:ref:`libdefaults`.
-
-Prior to release 1.19, **GSS_C_CHANNEL_BOUND_FLAG** is not
-implemented, and the exchange will fail if the acceptor supply channel
-bindings and the initiator does not (but not vice versa). Between
-releases 1.19 and 1.21, **GSS_C_CHANNEL_BOUND_FLAG** is not recognized
-as an initiator flag, so **client_aware_channel_bindings** is the only
-way to cause KERB_AP_OPTIONS_CBT to be included.
-
-
-AEAD message wrapping
----------------------
-
-The following GSSAPI extensions (declared in
-``<gssapi/gssapi_ext.h>``) can be used to wrap and unwrap messages
-with additional "associated data" which is integrity-checked but is
-not included in the output buffer::
-
- OM_uint32 gss_wrap_aead(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
- int conf_req_flag, gss_qop_t qop_req,
- gss_buffer_t input_assoc_buffer,
- gss_buffer_t input_payload_buffer,
- int *conf_state,
- gss_buffer_t output_message_buffer);
-
- OM_uint32 gss_unwrap_aead(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
- gss_buffer_t input_message_buffer,
- gss_buffer_t input_assoc_buffer,
- gss_buffer_t output_payload_buffer,
- int *conf_state,
- gss_qop_t *qop_state);
-
-Wrap tokens created with gss_wrap_aead will successfully unwrap only
-if the same *input_assoc_buffer* contents are presented to
-gss_unwrap_aead.
-
-
-IOV message wrapping
---------------------
-
-The following extensions (declared in ``<gssapi/gssapi_ext.h>``) can
-be used for in-place encryption, fine-grained control over wrap token
-layout, and for constructing wrap tokens compatible with Microsoft DCE
-RPC::
-
- typedef struct gss_iov_buffer_desc_struct {
- OM_uint32 type;
- gss_buffer_desc buffer;
- } gss_iov_buffer_desc, *gss_iov_buffer_t;
-
- OM_uint32 gss_wrap_iov(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
- int conf_req_flag, gss_qop_t qop_req,
- int *conf_state,
- gss_iov_buffer_desc *iov, int iov_count);
-
- OM_uint32 gss_unwrap_iov(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
- int *conf_state, gss_qop_t *qop_state,
- gss_iov_buffer_desc *iov, int iov_count);
-
- OM_uint32 gss_wrap_iov_length(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
- int conf_req_flag,
- gss_qop_t qop_req, int *conf_state,
- gss_iov_buffer_desc *iov,
- int iov_count);
-
- OM_uint32 gss_release_iov_buffer(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_iov_buffer_desc *iov,
- int iov_count);
-
-The caller of gss_wrap_iov provides an array of gss_iov_buffer_desc
-structures, each containing a type and a gss_buffer_desc structure.
-Valid types include:
-
-* **GSS_C_BUFFER_TYPE_DATA**: A data buffer to be included in the
- token, and to be encrypted or decrypted in-place if the token is
- confidentiality-protected.
-
-* **GSS_C_BUFFER_TYPE_HEADER**: The GSSAPI wrap token header and
- underlying cryptographic header.
-
-* **GSS_C_BUFFER_TYPE_TRAILER**: The cryptographic trailer, if one is
- required.
-
-* **GSS_C_BUFFER_TYPE_PADDING**: Padding to be combined with the data
- during encryption and decryption. (The implementation may choose to
- place padding in the trailer buffer, in which case it will set the
- padding buffer length to 0.)
-
-* **GSS_C_BUFFER_TYPE_STREAM**: For unwrapping only, a buffer
- containing a complete wrap token in standard format to be unwrapped.
-
-* **GSS_C_BUFFER_TYPE_SIGN_ONLY**: A buffer to be included in the
- token's integrity protection checksum, but not to be encrypted or
- included in the token itself.
-
-For gss_wrap_iov, the IOV list should contain one HEADER buffer,
-followed by zero or more SIGN_ONLY buffers, followed by one or more
-DATA buffers, followed by a TRAILER buffer. The memory pointed to by
-the buffers is not required to be contiguous or in any particular
-order. If *conf_req_flag* is true, DATA buffers will be encrypted
-in-place, while SIGN_ONLY buffers will not be modified.
-
-The type of an output buffer may be combined with
-**GSS_C_BUFFER_FLAG_ALLOCATE** to request that gss_wrap_iov allocate
-the buffer contents. If gss_wrap_iov allocates a buffer, it sets the
-**GSS_C_BUFFER_FLAG_ALLOCATED** flag on the buffer type.
-gss_release_iov_buffer can be used to release all allocated buffers
-within an iov list and unset their allocated flags. Here is an
-example of how gss_wrap_iov can be used with allocation requested
-(*ctx* is assumed to be a previously established gss_ctx_id_t)::
-
- OM_uint32 major, minor;
- gss_iov_buffer_desc iov[4];

-If the caller does not choose to request buffer allocation by

-lengths of the HEADER, PADDING, and TRAILER buffers. DATA buffers
-must be provided in the iov list so that padding length can be
-computed correctly, but the output buffers need not be initialized.
-Here is an example of using gss_wrap_iov_length and gss_wrap_iov::
-
- OM_uint32 major, minor;
- gss_iov_buffer_desc iov[4];
- char str[1024] = "message", *ptr;

- major = gss_wrap_iov(&minor, ctx, 1, GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT, NULL,

- handle_error(major, minor);

-If the context was established using the **GSS_C_DCE_STYLE** flag
-(described in :rfc:`4757`), wrap tokens compatible with Microsoft DCE
-RPC can be constructed. In this case, the IOV list must include a
-SIGN_ONLY buffer, a DATA buffer, a second SIGN_ONLY buffer, and a
-HEADER buffer in that order (the order of the buffer contents remains
-arbitrary). The application must pad the DATA buffer to a multiple of
-16 bytes as no padding or trailer buffer is used.
-
-gss_unwrap_iov may be called with an IOV list just like one which
-would be provided to gss_wrap_iov. DATA buffers will be decrypted
-in-place if they were encrypted, and SIGN_ONLY buffers will not be
-modified.
-
-Alternatively, gss_unwrap_iov may be called with a single STREAM
-buffer, zero or more SIGN_ONLY buffers, and a single DATA buffer. The
-STREAM buffer is interpreted as a complete wrap token. The STREAM
-buffer will be modified in-place to decrypt its contents. The DATA
-buffer will be initialized to point to the decrypted data within the
-STREAM buffer, unless it has the **GSS_C_BUFFER_FLAG_ALLOCATE** flag
-set, in which case it will be initialized with a copy of the decrypted
-data. Here is an example (*token* and *token_len* are assumed to be a
-pre-existing pointer and length for a modifiable region of data)::
-
- OM_uint32 major, minor;
- gss_iov_buffer_desc iov[2];
-
- iov[0].type = GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_STREAM;
- iov[0].buffer.value = token;
- iov[0].buffer.length = token_len;
- iov[1].type = GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_DATA;
- major = gss_unwrap_iov(&minor, ctx, NULL, NULL, iov, 2);
- if (GSS_ERROR(major))
- handle_error(major, minor);
-
- /* Decrypted data is in iov[1].buffer, pointing to a subregion of
- * token. */
-
-.. _gssapi_mic_token:
-
-IOV MIC tokens
---------------
-
-The following extensions (declared in ``<gssapi/gssapi_ext.h>``) can
-be used in release 1.12 or later to construct and verify MIC tokens
-using an IOV list::
-
- OM_uint32 gss_get_mic_iov(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
- gss_qop_t qop_req,
- gss_iov_buffer_desc *iov,
- int iov_count);
-
- OM_uint32 gss_get_mic_iov_length(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
- gss_qop_t qop_req,
- gss_iov_buffer_desc *iov,
- iov_count);
-
- OM_uint32 gss_verify_mic_iov(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
- gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
- gss_qop_t *qop_state,
- gss_iov_buffer_desc *iov,
- int iov_count);
-
-The caller of gss_get_mic_iov provides an array of gss_iov_buffer_desc
-structures, each containing a type and a gss_buffer_desc structure.
-Valid types include:
-
-* **GSS_C_BUFFER_TYPE_DATA** and **GSS_C_BUFFER_TYPE_SIGN_ONLY**: The
- corresponding buffer for each of these types will be signed for the
- MIC token, in the order provided.
-
-* **GSS_C_BUFFER_TYPE_MIC_TOKEN**: The GSSAPI MIC token.
-
-The type of the MIC_TOKEN buffer may be combined with
-**GSS_C_BUFFER_FLAG_ALLOCATE** to request that gss_get_mic_iov
-allocate the buffer contents. If gss_get_mic_iov allocates the
-buffer, it sets the **GSS_C_BUFFER_FLAG_ALLOCATED** flag on the buffer
-type. gss_release_iov_buffer can be used to release all allocated
-buffers within an iov list and unset their allocated flags. Here is
-an example of how gss_get_mic_iov can be used with allocation
-requested (*ctx* is assumed to be a previously established
-gss_ctx_id_t)::
-
- OM_uint32 major, minor;
- gss_iov_buffer_desc iov[3];
-
- iov[0].type = GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_DATA;
- iov[0].buffer.value = "sign1";
- iov[0].buffer.length = 5;
- iov[1].type = GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_SIGN_ONLY;
- iov[1].buffer.value = "sign2";
- iov[1].buffer.length = 5;
- iov[2].type = GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_MIC_TOKEN | GSS_IOV_BUFFER_FLAG_ALLOCATE;
-
- major = gss_get_mic_iov(&minor, ctx, GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT, iov, 3);
- if (GSS_ERROR(major))
- handle_error(major, minor);
-
- /* Transmit or otherwise use iov[2].buffer. */
-
- (void)gss_release_iov_buffer(&minor, iov, 3);
-
-If the caller does not choose to request buffer allocation by
-gss_get_mic_iov, it should first call gss_get_mic_iov_length to query
-the length of the MIC_TOKEN buffer. Here is an example of using
-gss_get_mic_iov_length and gss_get_mic_iov::
-
- OM_uint32 major, minor;
- gss_iov_buffer_desc iov[2];
- char data[1024];
-
- iov[0].type = GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_MIC_TOKEN;
- iov[1].type = GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_DATA;
- iov[1].buffer.value = "message";
- iov[1].buffer.length = 7;
-
- major = gss_get_mic_iov_length(&minor, ctx, GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT, iov, 2);
- if (GSS_ERROR(major))
- handle_error(major, minor);
- if (iov[0].buffer.length > sizeof(data))
- handle_out_of_space_error();
- iov[0].buffer.value = data;
-
- major = gss_get_mic_iov(&minor, ctx, GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT, iov, 2);
- if (GSS_ERROR(major))
