pam_exec(8) now accepts a new option "return_prog_exit_status". When
set, the program exit status is used as the pam_exec return code. It
allows the program to tell why the step failed (eg. user unknown).
However, if it exits with a code not allowed by the calling PAM service
module function (see $PAM_SM_FUNC below), a warning is logged and
PAM_SERVICE_ERR is returned.
The following changes are related to this new feature but they apply no
matter if the "return_prog_exit_status" option is set or not.
The environment passed to the program is extended:
o $PAM_SM_FUNC contains the name of the PAM service module function
(eg. pam_sm_authenticate).
o All valid PAM return codes' numerical values are available
through variables named after the return code name. For instance,
$PAM_SUCCESS, $PAM_USER_UNKNOWN or $PAM_PERM_DENIED.
pam_exec return code better reflects what went on:
o If the program exits with !0, the return code is now
PAM_PERM_DENIED, not PAM_SYSTEM_ERR.
o If the program fails because of a signal (WIFSIGNALED) or doesn't
terminate normally (!WIFEXITED), the return code is now
PAM_SERVICE_ERR, not PAM_SYSTEM_ERR.
o If a syscall in pam_exec fails, the return code remains
PAM_SYSTEM_ERR.
waitpid(2) is called in a loop. If it returns because of EINTR, do it
again. Before, it would return PAM_SYSTEM_ERR without waiting for the
child to exit.
Several log messages now include the PAM service module function name.
The man page is updated accordingly.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
