23 /*! \headerfile libpwmd.h
25 * libpwmd is a library making it easy for applications to use the pwmd
26 * server. Pwmd version 2.0 or later is required; either locally or remotely.
29 /*! \section ssh SSH Details
31 * A remote connection to a pwmd server is possible by using an SSH channel
32 * which spawns a shell and executes a proxy server that connects to the pwmd
33 * local Unix Domain Socket. Authentication is done by using SSH public key
34 * (see \ref ssh-keygen(1)) authentication and verifying the host key against
35 * a local OpenSSH known hosts formatted file.
37 * The servers public key can be had by using \ref pwmd_get_hostkey() and
38 * storing the result in a file or done automatially by using a callback
39 * function \ref pwmd_knownhost_cb_t while connecting to the unknown host.
41 * On the server side you'll need a proxy server to connect to the real pwmd
42 * server. Here's an example \ref authorized_keys(5) entry that will do this.
43 * The hash portion should be the same as the contents of the generated \ref
44 * ssh-keygen(1) \a identity.pub file which is passed as a parameter to the
45 * SSH connection functions:
47 * \code
48 * command="socat UNIX-CONNECT:$HOME/.pwmd/socket -" <hash> ...
49 * \endcode
51 * \note Only an SSH identity without a passphrase is supported. For now
52 * anyway. This is a limitation of libssh2 (version 1.1 as of this writing).
54 * \version 6.0.3
55 * The first version to use the OpenSSH known hosts file format exclusively.
56 * Earlier versions used only an SHA1 hash of the host key.
58 * \x11
61 /*! \section pinentry Pinentry Details
63 * \ref pinentry(1) is a program that prompts the user for input which is
64 * normally a passphrase or a confirmation. libpwmd can use this program
65 * either locally (X11 forwarding is not yet supported) or have the pwmd
66 * server use it's pinentry to retrieve a passphrase when needed. How this is
67 * done depends what function gets called and whether the pwmd connection is
68 * over an SSH channel.
70 * There are a few options that tell pinentry how and where to prompt for a
71 * needed passphrase. See the \ref pwmd_option_t section for details. These
72 * options are not sent (when using pwmd's pinentry, not the local one) until
73 * the pinentry is needed.
75 * If using a local pinentry by calling \ref pwmd_open2(), \ref pwmd_save2(),
76 * \ref pwmd_open_async2() or pwmd_save_async2(), libpwmd will send the
77 * command "SET ENABLE_PINENTRY=0" to the pwmd server. This is needed so pwmd
78 * wont try to launch it's own pinentry on passphrase or confirmation failure.
79 * So you may need to reset this option manually depending on your needs;
80 * especially when changing pinentry methods when doing a save (the passphrase
81 * may be set as empty since the remote pinentry is disabled!).
83 * Some pinentry options can also be specified in a local configuration file
84 * \a "~/.pwmd/pinentry.conf". These options are initial values for each
85 * pinentry invokation (not retries) and may be changed by setting the
86 * appropriate \ref pwmd_option_t. Each option and value is separated with a
87 * '=' on a single line. Unrecognized options are ignored. Here are the
88 * recognized options:
90 * \param PATH The full path to the location of the pinentry binary.
91 * \param DISPLAY The X11 display to use.
92 * \param TTYNAME The full path to the tty that pinentry should prompt on.
93 * \param TTYTYPE The terminal type of the tty which is required if DISPLAY is
94 * not set.
96 * \filepath
98 * \note The initial values for the pinentry TTY, TERM and DISPLAY are set
99 * during \ref pwmd_new() depending on the current environment. They may need
100 * to be reset as needed.
102 * \note After establishing an SSH connection, the pwmd pinentry is disabled
103 * by sending the command "SET ENABLE_PINENTRY=0". This is needed because
104 * there currently isn't a way to have the remote pinentry use the local
105 * display. You must be careful to use either a local pinentry or set a
106 * passphrase manually with \ref pwmd_setopt() when a passphrase is required
107 * or needed.
109 * \x11
111 * \see \ref ssh
114 /*! \section Errors
116 * libpwmd uses libgpg-error for all error codes. Some are user defined
117 * GPG_ERR_USER_N codes, but most are reused from the existing ones. Error
118 * codes can be described by using \ref pwmd_strerror(), or the thread-safe
119 * \ref pwmd_strerror_r().
121 * \note libgpg-error normally returns an error code as a bitmask of an error
122 * source and the actual error code. In order to simplify the result codes,
123 * libpwmd strips any error source from the error code before returning it.
