72The functions
73.Fn cap_getpwent ,
74.Fn cap_getpwnam ,
75.Fn cap_getpwuid ,
76.Fn cap_getpwent_r ,
77.Fn cap_getpwnam_r ,
78.Fn cap_getpwuid_r ,
79.Fn cap_setpassent ,
80.Fn cap_setpwent ,
81and
82.Fn cap_endpwent
83are respectively equivalent to
84.Xr getpwent 3 ,
85.Xr getpwnam 3 ,
86.Xr getpwuid 3 ,
87.Xr getpwent_r 3 ,
88.Xr getpwnam_r 3 ,
89.Xr getpwuid_r 3 ,
90.Xr setpassent 3 ,
91.Xr setpwent 3 ,
92and
93.Xr cap_endpwent 3
94except that the connection to the
95.Nm system.pwd
96service needs to be provided.
97.Pp
98The
99.Fn cap_pwd_limit_cmds
100function limits the functions allowed in the service.
101The
102.Fa cmds
103variable can be set to
104.Dv getpwent ,
105.Dv getpwnam ,
106.Dv getpwuid ,
107.Dv getpwent_r ,
108.Dv getpwnam_r ,
109.Dv getpwuid_r ,
110.Dv setpassent ,
111.Dv setpwent ,
112or
113.Dv endpwent
114which will allow to use the function associated with the name.
115The
116.Fa ncmds
117variable contains the number of
118.Fa cmds
119provided.
120.Pp
121The
122.Fn cap_pwd_limit_fields
123function allows limit fields returned in the structure
124.Vt passwd .
125The
126.Fa fields
127variable can be set to
128.Dv pw_name ,
129.Dv pw_passwd ,
130.Dv pw_uid ,
131.Dv pw_gid ,
132.Dv pw_change ,
133.Dv pw_class ,
134.Dv pw_gecos ,
135.Dv pw_dir ,
136.Dv pw_shell ,
137.Dv pw_expire
138or
139.Dv pw_fields
140The field which was set as the limit will be returned, while the rest of the
141values not set this way will have default values.
142The
143.Fa nfields
144variable contains the number of
145.Fa fields
146provided.
147.Pp
148The
149.Fn cap_pwd_limit_users
150function allows to limit access to users.
151The
152.Fa names
153variable allows to limit users by name and the
154.Fa uids
155variable by the user number.
156The
157.Fa nnames
158and
159.Fa nuids
160variables provide numbers of limited names and uids.
161.Pp
162All of these functions are reentrant but not thread-safe.
163That is, they may be called from separate threads only with different
164.Vt cap_channel_t
165arguments or with synchronization.
166.Sh EXAMPLES
167The following example first opens a capability to casper and then uses this
168capability to create the
169.Nm system.pwd
170casper service and uses it to get a user name.

202
203/* Limit service to one uid. */

205	err(1, "Unable to limit access to system.pwd service");
