A given interprocess token can be imported only once. See \fBgss_export_sec_context\fR(3GSS). .SH PARAMETERS .sp .LP The parameter descriptions for \fBgss_import_sec_context()\fR are as follows: .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fIminor_status\fR\fR .ad .RS 22n A mechanism-specific status code. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fIinterprocess_token\fR\fR .ad .RS 22n Token received from exporting process. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fIcontext_handle\fR\fR .ad .RS 22n Context handle of newly reactivated context. Resources associated with this context handle must be released by the application after use with a call to \fBgss_delete_sec_context\fR(3GSS). .RE .SH ERRORS .sp .LP \fBgss_import_sec_context()\fR returns one of the following status codes: .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBGSS_S_COMPLETE\fR\fR .ad .RS 25n Successful completion. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBGSS_S_NO_CONTEXT\fR\fR .ad .RS 25n The token did not contain a valid context reference. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBGSS_S_DEFECTIVE_TOKEN\fR\fR .ad .RS 25n The token was invalid. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBGSS_S_UNAVAILABLE\fR\fR .ad .RS 25n The operation is unavailable. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBGSS_S_UNAUTHORIZED\fR\fR .ad .RS 25n Local policy prevents the import of this context by the current process. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBGSS_S_FAILURE\fR\fR .ad .RS 25n The underlying mechanism detected an error for which no specific \fBGSS\fR status code is defined. The mechanism-specific status code reported by means of the \fIminor_status\fR parameter details the error condition. .RE .SH ATTRIBUTES .sp .LP See \fBattributes\fR(7) for descriptions of the following attributes: .sp .sp .TS box; c | c l | l .
