CAP_FCNTLS_LIMIT(2) FreeBSD System Calls Manual CAP_FCNTLS_LIMIT(2)
NAME cap_fcntls_limit, cap_fcntls_get - manage allowed fcntl commands
LIBRARY Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS #include <sys/capsicum.h>
int cap_fcntls_limit(int fd, uint32_t fcntlrights);
int cap_fcntls_get(int fd, uint32_t *fcntlrightsp);
DESCRIPTION If a file descriptor is granted the CAP_FCNTL capability right, the list of allowed fcntl(2) commands can be selectively reduced (but never expanded) with the cap_fcntls_limit() system call.
A bitmask of allowed fcntls commands for a given file descriptor can be obtained with the cap_fcntls_get() system call.
FLAGS The following flags may be specified in the fcntlrights argument or returned in the fcntlrightsp argument:
CAP_FCNTL_GETFL Permit F_GETFL command.
CAP_FCNTL_SETFL Permit F_SETFL command.
CAP_FCNTL_GETOWN Permit F_GETOWN command.
CAP_FCNTL_SETOWN Permit F_SETOWN command.
RETURN VALUES Upon successful completion, the value 0 is returned; otherwise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS cap_fcntls_limit() succeeds unless:
[EBADF] The fd argument is not a valid descriptor.
[EINVAL] An invalid flag has been passed in fcntlrights.
[ENOTCAPABLE] fcntlrights would expand the list of allowed fcntl(2) commands.
cap_fcntls_get() succeeds unless:
[EBADF] The fd argument is not a valid descriptor.
[EFAULT] The fcntlrightsp argument points at an invalid address.
The cap_fcntls_get() and cap_fcntls_limit() system calls first appeared in FreeBSD 8.3. Support for capabilities and capabilities mode was developed as part of the TrustedBSD Project.
