397767Sache/* Relinquish privileges temporarily for a setuid or setgid program
40941Snate * with the option of getting them back later.  This is done by swapping
41941Snate * the real and effective userid BSD style.  Call RELINQUISH_PRIVS once
4254158Scharnier * at the beginning of the main program.  This will cause all operations
43941Snate * to be executed with the real userid.  When you need the privileges
447767Sache * of the setuid/setgid invocation, call PRIV_START; when you no longer
45941Snate * need it, call PRIV_END.  Note that it is an error to call PRIV_START
46941Snate * and not PRIV_END within the same function.
47941Snate *
487767Sache * Use RELINQUISH_PRIVS_ROOT(a,b) if your program started out running
49941Snate * as root, and you want to drop back the effective userid to a
50941Snate * and the effective group id to b, with the option to get them back
51941Snate * later.
52941Snate *
53941Snate * If you no longer need root privileges, but those of some other
547767Sache * userid/groupid, you can call REDUCE_PRIV(a,b) when your effective
55941Snate * is the user's.
56941Snate *
57941Snate * Problems: Do not use return between PRIV_START and PRIV_END; this
58941Snate * will cause the program to continue running in an unprivileged
59941Snate * state.
60941Snate *
61941Snate * It is NOT safe to call exec(), system() or popen() with a user-
62941Snate * supplied program (i.e. without carefully checking PATH and any
63941Snate * library load paths) with relinquished privileges; the called program
6454158Scharnier * can acquire them just as easily.  Set both effective and real userid
65941Snate * to the real userid before calling any of them.
