This is then attached to one of the keyrings of the userspace process to which the task of instantiating the key is given: .IP requester -> request_key() -> instantiator .P Calling this function modifies the way .BR request_key () works when called thereafter by the calling (instantiator) thread; once the authority is assumed, the keyrings of the initial process are added to the search path, using the initial process's UID, GID, groups and security context. .P If a thread has multiple instantiations to deal with, it may call this function to change the authorisation key currently in effect. Supplying a .B zero .I key de-assumes the currently assumed authority. .P .B NOTE! This is a per-thread setting and not a per-process setting so that a multithreaded process can be used to instantiate several keys at once. .P .BR keyctl_instantiate () instantiates the payload of an uninstantiated key from the data specified. .I payload and .I plen specify the data for the new payload. .I payload may be NULL and .I plen may be zero if the key type permits that. The key type may reject the data if it's in the wrong format or in some other way invalid. .P .BR keyctl_negate () marks a key as negatively instantiated and sets the expiration timer on it. .I timeout specifies the lifetime of the key in seconds. .P Only a key for which authority has been assumed may be instantiated or negatively instantiated, and once instantiated, the authorisation key will be revoked and the requesting process will be able to resume. .P The destination .IR keyring , if given, is assumed to belong to the initial requester, and not the instantiating process. Therefore, the special keyring IDs refer to the requesting process's keyrings, not the caller's, and the requester's UID, etc. will be used to access them. .P The destination keyring can be .B zero if no extra link is desired. .P The requester, not the caller, must have .B write permission on the destination for a link to be made there. .\""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" .SH RETURN VALUE On success .BR keyctl_instantiate () returns .BR 0 . On error, the value .B -1 will be returned and errno will have been set to an appropriate error. .\""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" .SH ERRORS .TP .B ENOKEY The key or keyring specified is invalid. .TP .B EKEYEXPIRED The keyring specified has expired. .TP .B EKEYREVOKED The key or keyring specified had been revoked, or the authorisation has been revoked. .TP .B EINVAL The payload data was invalid. .TP .B ENOMEM Insufficient memory to store the new payload or to expand the destination keyring. .TP .B EDQUOT The key quota for the key's user would be exceeded by increasing the size of the key to accommodate the new payload or the key quota for the keyring's user would be exceeded by expanding the destination keyring. .TP .B EACCES The key exists, but is not .B writable by the requester. .\""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" .SH LINKING This is a library function that can be found in .IR libkeyutils . When linking, .B -lkeyutils should be specified to the linker. .\""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" .SH SEE ALSO .BR keyctl (1), .br .BR add_key (2), .br .BR keyctl (2), .br .BR request_key (2), .br .BR keyctl_get_keyring_ID (3), .br .BR keyctl_join_session_keyring (3), .br .BR keyctl_update (3), .br .BR keyctl_revoke (3), .br .BR keyctl_chown (3), .br .BR keyctl_setperm (3), .br .BR keyctl_describe (3), .br .BR keyctl_clear (3), .br .BR keyctl_link (3), .br .BR keyctl_unlink (3), .br .BR keyctl_search (3), .br .BR keyctl_read (3), .br .BR keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring (3), .br .BR keyctl_set_timeout (3), .br .BR keyctl_describe_alloc (3), .br .BR keyctl_read_alloc (3), .br .BR request-key (8)
