rad Module Linkage - Remote Administration Daemon Developer Guide

`rad` Module Linkage

Each module is required to provide a function, _rad_init(), for linkage and identification purposes. This function is called before any other function in the module. It is used to initialize the module and register itself with rad.

Note - Within _rad_init(), modules can test the rad_isproxy variable to determine whether this routine is running in the main rad (proxy) daemon.

When rad_isproxy is B_TRUE, modules that depend on running as the authenticated user in the rad slave should return immediately from _rad_init() without further initialization. Modules that do not perform any user-specific or restricted operations should proceed with initialization.

When rad_isproxy is B_FALSE, the module is being initialized in the slave.

Example 6-1 Module Initialization and Registration

#include <rad/rad_modapi.h>

static rad_modinfo_t modinfo = {"usermgr", "User Management Module"};

int
_rad_init(void *handle)
{
    if (rad_module_register(handle, RAD_MODVERSION, &modinfo) == -1)
        return (-1);

    /* This module must be run as the authenticated user */
    if (rad_isproxy)
        return (0);

    (void) cont_insert_singleton(rad_container, adr_name_fromstr(
        "com.oracle.solaris.user:type=UserManager"),
        &interface_UserMgr_svr);

    return (0);
}
