gss_get_mic(3)			      gss			gss_get_mic(3)

NAME
       gss_get_mic - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gss.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_get_mic(OM_uint32 * minor_status, const gss_ctx_id_t con‐
       text_handle,  gss_qop_t	qop_req,  const	 gss_buffer_t  message_buffer,
       gss_buffer_t message_token);

ARGUMENTS
       OM_uint32 * minor_status
		   (Integer, modify) Mechanism specific status code.

       const gss_ctx_id_t context_handle
		   (gss_ctx_id_t, read) Identifies the context on
		     which the message will be sent.

       gss_qop_t qop_req
		   (gss_qop_t, read, optional) Specifies requested quality
		     of	 protection.   Callers	are encouraged, on portability
		   grounds,
		     to accept the default quality of  protection  offered  by
		   the chosen
		     mechanism,	  which	  may	be   requested	by  specifying
		   GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT
		     for  this	parameter.   If	 an   unsupported   protection
		   strength is
		     requested, gss_get_mic will return a major_status of
		     GSS_S_BAD_QOP.

       const gss_buffer_t message_buffer
		   (buffer, opaque, read) Message to be protected.

       gss_buffer_t message_token
		   (buffer, opaque, modify) Buffer to receive token.  The
		     application must free storage associated with this buffer
		   after
		     use with a call to gss_release_buffer().

DESCRIPTION
       Generates a cryptographic MIC for the supplied message, and places  the
       MIC in a token for transfer to the peer application. The qop_req param‐
       eter allows a choice between several cryptographic algorithms, if  sup‐
       ported by the chosen mechanism.

       Since  some  application-level protocols may wish to use tokens emitted
       by gss_wrap() to provide "secure framing", implementations must support
       derivation of MICs from zero-length messages.

RETURN VALUE
       `GSS_S_COMPLETE`: Successful completion.

       `GSS_S_CONTEXT_EXPIRED`: The context has already expired.

       `GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT`:  The	 context_handle	 parameter  did not identify a
       valid context.

       `GSS_S_BAD_QOP`: The specified QOP is not supported by the mechanism.
