NAME

siad_init  − initialization routine for SIA (Security Integration Architecture)

LIBRARY

Standard C library (libc.so and libc.a)

SYNOPSIS

#include <sia.h>
#include <siad.h>

int siad_init(void);

DESCRIPTION

The siad_init() routine is called from sia_init() to do mechanism-specific processing once per reboot. 

RETURN VALUES

The siad_init() routine returns either SIASUCCESS or SIAFAIL.  A return of SIADFAIL from this routine will prevent the system from rebooting. Consequently the  SIADFAIL response should only be used if a security risk or root login failure is assumed. 

ERRORS

The errno values are those returned from the dynamic loader interface, from dependent (siad_∗) routines, or from malloc.  Possible errors include resource constraints (no memory) and various authentication failures.  /etc/sia/matrix.conf
