GSSAPI_LIB_FUNCTION OM_uint32 GSSAPI_LIB_CALL gss_add_oid_set_member	(	OM_uint32 *	minor_status,
		const gss_OID	member_oid,
		gss_OID_set *	oid_set
	)

Add a oid to the oid set, function does not make a copy of the oid, so the pointer to member_oid needs to be stable for the whole time oid_set is used.

If there is a duplicate member of the oid, the new member is not added to to the set.

Parameters:

	minor_status	minor status code.
	member_oid	member to add to the oid set
	oid_set	oid set to add the member too

Returns:: a gss_error code, see gss_display_status() about printing the error code.

GSSAPI_LIB_FUNCTION OM_uint32 GSSAPI_LIB_CALL gss_canonicalize_name	(	OM_uint32 *	minor_status,
		const gss_name_t	input_name,
		const gss_OID	mech_type,
		gss_name_t *	output_name
	)

gss_canonicalize_name takes a Internal Name (IN) and converts in into a mechanism specific Mechanism Name (MN).

The input name may multiple name, or generic name types.

If the input_name if of the GSS_C_NT_USER_NAME, and the Kerberos mechanism is specified, the resulting MN type is a GSS_KRB5_NT_PRINCIPAL_NAME.

Parameters:

	minor_status	minor status code.
	input_name	name to covert, unchanged by gss_canonicalize_name().
	mech_type	the type to convert Name too.
	output_name	the resulting type, release with gss_release_name(), independent of input_name.

Returns:: a gss_error code, see gss_display_status() about printing the error code.

Parameters:

	minor_status	minor status code.

	output_message_buffer	the resulting buffer, release with gss_release_buffer().

GSSAPI_LIB_FUNCTION OM_uint32 GSSAPI_LIB_CALL 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
	)

Encrypts or sign the data.

This is a more complicated version of gss_wrap(), it allows the caller to use AEAD data (signed header/trailer) and allow greater controll over where the encrypted data is placed.

The maximum packet size is gss_context_stream_sizes.max_msg_size.

The caller needs provide the folloing buffers when using in conf_req_flag=1 mode:

HEADER (of size gss_context_stream_sizes.header) { DATA or SIGN_ONLY } (optional, zero or more) PADDING (of size gss_context_stream_sizes.blocksize, if zero padding is zero, can be omitted) TRAILER (of size gss_context_stream_sizes.trailer)

on DCE-RPC mode, the caller can skip PADDING and TRAILER if the DATA elements is padded to a block bountry and header is of at least size gss_context_stream_sizes.header + gss_context_stream_sizes.trailer.

HEADER, PADDING, TRAILER will be shrunken to the size required to transmit any of them too large.

To generate gss_wrap() compatible packets, use: HEADER | DATA | PADDING | TRAILER

When used in conf_req_flag=0,

HEADER (of size gss_context_stream_sizes.header) { DATA or SIGN_ONLY } (optional, zero or more) PADDING (of size gss_context_stream_sizes.blocksize, if zero padding is zero, can be omitted) TRAILER (of size gss_context_stream_sizes.trailer)

The input sizes of HEADER, PADDING and TRAILER can be fetched using gss_wrap_iov_length() or gss_context_query_attributes().

GSSAPI_LIB_FUNCTION OM_uint32 GSSAPI_LIB_CALL 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
	)

Update the length fields in iov buffer for the types:

GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_HEADER
GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_PADDING
GSS_IOV_BUFFER_TYPE_TRAILER

Consider using gss_context_query_attributes() to fetch the data instead.
