72.Sh DESCRIPTION
73The functions
74.Fn cap_getgrent ,
75.Fn cap_getgrnam ,
76.Fn cap_getgrgid ,
77.Fn cap_getgrent_r ,
78.Fn cap_getgrnam_r ,
79.Fn cap_getgrgid_r ,
80.Fn cap_setgroupent ,
81.Fn cap_setgrent ,
82and
83.Fn cap_endgrent
84are respectively equivalent to
85.Xr getgrent 3 ,
86.Xr getgrnam 3 ,
87.Xr getgrgid 3 ,
88.Xr getgrent_r 3 ,
89.Xr getgrnam_r 3 ,
90.Xr getgrgid_r 3 ,
91.Xr setgroupent 3 ,
92.Xr setgrent 3 ,
93and
94.Xr endgrent 3
95except that the connection to the
96.Nm system.grp
97service needs to be provided.
98.Pp
99The
100.Fn cap_grp_limit_cmds
101function limits the functions allowed in the service.
102The
103.Fa cmds
104variable can be set to
105.Dv getgrent ,
106.Dv getgrnam ,
107.Dv getgrgid ,
108.Dv getgrent_r ,
109.Dv getgrnam_r ,
110.Dv getgrgid_r ,
111.Dv setgroupent ,
112.Dv setgrent ,
113or
114.Dv endgrent
115which will allow to use the function associated with the name.
116The
117.Fa ncmds
118variable contains the number of
119.Fa cmds
120provided.
121.Pp
122The
123.Fn cap_grp_limit_fields
124function allows limit fields returned in the structure
125.Vt group .
126The
127.Fa fields
128variable can be set to
129.Dv gr_name
130.Dv gr_passwd
131.Dv gr_gid
132or
133.Dv gr_mem .
134The field which was set as the limit will be returned, while the rest of the
135values not set this way will have default values.
136The
137.Fa nfields
138variable contains the number of
139.Fa fields
140provided.
141.Pp
142The
143.Fn cap_grp_limit_groups
144function allows to limit access to groups.
145The
146.Fa names
147variable allows to limit groups by name and the
148.Fa gids
149variable by the group number.
150The
151.Fa nnames
152and
153.Fa ngids
154variables provide numbers of limited names and gids.
155.Pp
156All of these functions are reentrant but not thread-safe.
157That is, they may be called from separate threads only with different
158.Vt cap_channel_t
159arguments or with synchronization.
160.Sh EXAMPLES
161The following example first opens a capability to casper and then uses this
162capability to create the
163.Nm system.grp
164casper service and uses it to get a group name.

191	err(1, "Unable to limit access to system.grp service");

193/* Limit service to one field as we only need name of the group. */
194if (cap_grp_limit_fields(capgrp, fields, nitems(fields)))
195	err(1, "Unable to limit access to system.grp service");
196
197/* Limit service to one gid. */
198if (cap_grp_limit_groups(capgrp, NULL, 0, gid, nitems(gid)))
199	err(1, "Unable to limit access to system.grp service");
200
201group = cap_getgrgid(capgrp, gid[0]);
202if (group == NULL)
203	err(1, "Unable to get name of group");
