Using the AuthorizationDB API the system can be configured to use these plugins. Plugins are loaded into a separate process, the pluginhost, to isolate the process of authorization from the client. There are two types of pluginhosts. One runs as an anonymous user and can be used to communicate with the user, for example to ask for a password. Another one runs with root privileges to perform privileged operations that may be required. A typical use is to implement additional policies that cannot be expressed in the authorization configuration. Plugins implement a handshake function called AuthorizationPluginCreate with which their interface (AuthorizationPluginInterface) and the engine's interface (AuthorizationCallbacks) are exchanged. Plugins are asked to create Mechanisms, which are the basic element as authorizations are performed. Mechanisms are invoked when it is time for them to make a decision. A decision is made by setting a single result (AuthorizationResult). Mechanisms in the authorization can communicate auxiliary information by setting and/or getting hints and setting and/or getting context data. Hints are advisory and don't need to be looked at, nor are they preserved as part of the authorization result. Context data becomes part of the result of the authorization. Context data is tagged with a flag that describes whether the information is returned to the authorization client upon request (AuthorizationCopyInfo() in Authorization.h) or whether it's private to the mechanisms making a decision. */ /*! @typedef AuthorizationValue Auxiliary data is passed between the engine and the mechanism as AuthorizationValues */ typedef struct AuthorizationValue { size_t length; void *data; } AuthorizationValue; /*! @typedef AuthorizationValueVector A vector of AuthorizationValues.
