NAME

       capng_save_state - get the internal library state

SYNOPSIS

       #include <cap-ng.h>

       void *capng_save_state(void);

DESCRIPTION

       capng_save_state is a function that returns a pointer to the internal state of the libcap-
       ng library. It should be considered opaque and not for alteration directly. This  function
       should  be  used when you suspect a third party library may use libcap-ng also and want to
       make sure it doesn't alter something important. This function  is  not  available  in  the
       python bindings.

RETURN VALUE

       This returns NULL on failure and a non-NULL pointer otherwise.
