16 capng_print_caps_numeric will create a numeric representation of the
17 internal capabilities. The representation can be sent to either stdout
18 or a buffer by passing CAPNG_PRINT_STDOUT or CAPNG_PRINT_BUFFER respec‐
19 tively for the where parameter. If the option was for a buffer, this
20 function will malloc a buffer that the caller must free.
21
22 The set parameter controls what is included in the representation. The
23 legal options are CAPNG_SELECT_CAPS for the traditional capabilities,
24 CAPNG_SELECT_BOUNDS for the bounding set, CAPNG_SELECT_BOTH if printing
25 both is desired, CAPNG_SELECT_AMBIENT if only printing the ambient ca‐
26 pabilities, or CAPNG_SELECT_ALL if printing all is desired.

30 If CAPNG_PRINT_BUFFER was selected for where, this will be the text
31 buffer and NULL on failure. If CAPNG_PRINT_STDOUT was selected then
32 this value will be NULL no matter what.
