NAME

        pam_getenvlist - getting the PAM environment

SYNOPSIS

        #include <security/pam_appl.h>
 
        char **pam_getenvlist(pam_handle_t *pamh);

DESCRIPTION

        The pam_getenvlist function returns a complete copy of the PAM
        environment as associated with the handle pamh. The PAM environment
        variables represent the contents of the regular environment variables
        of the authenticated user when service is granted.
 
        The format of the memory is a malloc()’d array of char pointers, the
        last element of which is set to NULL. Each of the non-NULL entries in
        this array point to a NUL terminated and malloc()’d char string of the
        form: "name=value".
 
        It should be noted that this memory will never be free()’d by libpam.
        Once obtained by a call to pam_getenvlist, it is the responsibility of
        the calling application to free() this memory.
 
        It is by design, and not a coincidence, that the format and contents of
        the returned array matches that required for the third argument of the
        execle(3) function call.
        The pam_getenvlist function returns NULL on failure.
