NAME

6       keyctl_*() - Key management function wrappers
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The  keyctl()  system call is a multiplexor for a number of key manageā€
10       ment functions.  These  should  be  called  via  the  wrappers  in  the
11       libkeyutils library.
12
13       The functions can be compiled in by including the keyutils header file:
14
15              #include <keyutils.h>
16
17       and then telling the linker it should link in the library:
18
19              -lkeyutils
