59.Sh DESCRIPTION
60Converts a message previously protected by
61.Xr gss_wrap 3
62back to a usable form,
63verifying the embedded MIC.
64The
65.Dv conf_state
66parameter indicates whether the message was encrypted;
67the
68.Dv qop_state
69parameter indicates the strength of protection that was used to provide the
70confidentiality and integrity services.
71.Pp
72Since some application-level protocols may wish to use tokens emitted
73by
74.Xr gss_wrap 3
75to provide "secure framing",
76implementations must support the wrapping and unwrapping of
77zero-length messages.
78.Pp
79The
80.Fn gss_unseal
81routine is an obsolete variant of
82.Fn gss_unwrap .
83It is
84provided for backwards
85compatibility with applications using the GSS-API V1 interface.
86A distinct entrypoint (as opposed to #define) is provided,
87both to allow GSS-API V1 applications to link
88and to retain the slight parameter type differences between the
89obsolete versions of this routine and its current form.
90.Sh PARAMETERS
91.Bl -tag -width ".It output_message_buffer"
92.It minor_status
93Mechanism specific status code.
94.It context_handle
95Identifies the context on which the message arrived.
96.It input_message_buffer
97Protected message.
98.It output_message_buffer
99Buffer to receive unwrapped message.
100Storage associated with this buffer must
101be freed by the application after use
102with a call to
103.Xr gss_release_buffer 3 .
104.It conf_state
105.Bl -tag -width "Non-zero"
106.It Non-zero
107Confidentiality and integrity protection were used.
108.It Zero
109Integrity service only was used.
110.El
111.Pp
112Specify NULL if not required.
113.It qop_state
114Quality of protection provided. Specify NULL if not required.
115.El
116.Sh RETURN VALUES
117.Bl -tag -width ".It GSS_S_CONTEXT_EXPIRED"
118.It GSS_S_COMPLETE
119Successful completion.
120.It GSS_S_DEFECTIVE_TOKEN
121The token failed consistency checks.
122.It GSS_S_BAD_SIG
123The MIC was incorrect
124.It GSS_S_DUPLICATE_TOKEN
125The token was valid, and contained a correct
126MIC for the message, but it had already been
127processed.
128.It GSS_S_OLD_TOKEN
129The token was valid, and contained a correct MIC
130for the message, but it is too old to check for
131duplication.
132.It GSS_S_UNSEQ_TOKEN
133The token was valid, and contained a correct MIC
134for the message, but has been verified out of
135sequence; a later token has already been
136received.
137.It GSS_S_GAP_TOKEN
138The token was valid, and contained a correct MIC
139for the message, but has been verified out of
140sequence; an earlier expected token has not yet
141been received.
142.It GSS_S_CONTEXT_EXPIRED
143The context has already expired.
144.It GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT
145The context_handle parameter did not identify a valid context.
