| ## gss_process_context_token(3sec) Passes a context to the security service Synopsis #include <dce/gssapi.h> OM_uint32 gss_process_context_token ( OM_uint32 *minor_status, gss_ctx_id_t *context_handle, gss_buffer_t input_token_buffer) Parameters Input 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 minor_status Returns a status code from the security mechanism. 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. Errors The following describes a partial list of errors that might be returned. Refer to the OSF DCE Problem Determination Guide for complete descriptions of all error messages. 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.
