61.Sh DESCRIPTION
62Converts a message previously protected by
63.Xr gss_wrap 3
64back to a usable form,
65verifying the embedded MIC.
66The
67.Dv conf_state
68parameter indicates whether the message was encrypted;
69the
70.Dv qop_state
71parameter indicates the strength of protection that was used to provide the
72confidentiality and integrity services.
73.Pp
74Since some application-level protocols may wish to use tokens emitted
75by
76.Xr gss_wrap 3
77to provide "secure framing",
78implementations must support the wrapping and unwrapping of
79zero-length messages.
80.Pp
81The
82.Fn gss_unseal
83routine is an obsolete variant of
84.Fn gss_unwrap .
85It is
86provided for backwards
87compatibility with applications using the GSS-API V1 interface.
88A distinct entrypoint (as opposed to #define) is provided,
89both to allow GSS-API V1 applications to link
90and to retain the slight parameter type differences between the
91obsolete versions of this routine and its current form.
92.Sh PARAMETERS
93.Bl -tag -width ".It output_message_buffer"
94.It minor_status
95Mechanism specific status code.
96.It context_handle
97Identifies the context on which the message arrived.
98.It input_message_buffer
99Protected message.
100.It output_message_buffer
101Buffer to receive unwrapped message.
102Storage associated with this buffer must
103be freed by the application after use
104with a call to
105.Xr gss_release_buffer 3 .
106.It conf_state
107.Bl -tag -width "Non-zero"
108.It Non-zero
109Confidentiality and integrity protection were used.
110.It Zero
111Integrity service only was used.
112.El
113.Pp
114Specify NULL if not required.
115.It qop_state
116Quality of protection provided. Specify NULL if not required.
117.El
118.Sh RETURN VALUES
119.Bl -tag -width ".It GSS_S_CONTEXT_EXPIRED"
120.It GSS_S_COMPLETE
121Successful completion.
122.It GSS_S_DEFECTIVE_TOKEN
123The token failed consistency checks.
124.It GSS_S_BAD_SIG
125The MIC was incorrect
126.It GSS_S_DUPLICATE_TOKEN
127The token was valid, and contained a correct
128MIC for the message, but it had already been
129processed.
130.It GSS_S_OLD_TOKEN
131The token was valid, and contained a correct MIC
132for the message, but it is too old to check for
133duplication.
134.It GSS_S_UNSEQ_TOKEN
135The token was valid, and contained a correct MIC
136for the message, but has been verified out of
137sequence; a later token has already been
138received.
139.It GSS_S_GAP_TOKEN
140The token was valid, and contained a correct MIC
141for the message, but has been verified out of
142sequence; an earlier expected token has not yet
143been received.
144.It GSS_S_CONTEXT_EXPIRED
145The context has already expired.
146.It GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT
147The context_handle parameter did not identify a valid context.
