PAM module-specific implementation to close a session previously opened by pam_sm_open_session().
PAM Library (libpam.a)
#include <security/pam_appl.h>
#include <security/pam_modules.h>
int pam_sm_close_session (PAMHandle, Flags, Argc, Argv)
pam_handle_t *PAMHandle;
int Flags;
int Argc;
const char **Argv;
When an application invokes pam_close_session(), the PAM Framework calls pam_sm_close_session for each module in the session module stack. The pam_sm_close_session module interface is intended to clean up and terminate any user session started by pam_sm_open_session().
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| PAMhandle | The PAM handle representing the current user authentication session. This handle is obtained by a call to pam_start(). |
| Flags | The flags are used to set pam_acct_mgmt options.
The recognized flag is:
|
| Argc | The number of module options defined. |
| Argv | The module options. These options are module-dependent. Any modules receiving invalid options should ignore them. |
Upon successful completion, pam_sm_close_session returns PAM_SUCCESS. If the routine fails, a different error is returned, depending on the actual error.
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| PAM_SESSION_ERR | An error occurred while creating or removing an entry for the new session. |
| PAM_USER_UNKNOWN | The user is not known. |
| PAM_OPEN_ERR | One of the PAM authentication modules could not be loaded. |
| PAM_SYMBOL_ERR | A necessary item is not available to a PAM module. |
| PAM_SERVICE_ERR | An error occurred in a PAM module. |
| PAM_SYSTEM_ERR | A system error occurred. |
| PAM_BUF_ERR | A memory error occurred. |
| PAM_CONV_ERR | A conversation error occurred. |
| PAM_PERM_DENIED | Access permission was denied to the user. |
