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