SYNOPSIS
#include <syslog.h>
#include <security/pam_ext.h>
-
void pam_syslog(const pam_handle_t *pamh, int priority, const char *fmt, ...);
-
void pam_vsyslog(const pam_handle_t *pamh, int priority, const char *fmt, va_list args);
DESCRIPTION
The
pam_syslog
function logs messages using
syslog(3)
and is intended for internal use by Linux-PAM and PAM service modules. The
priority
argument is formed by ORing the facility and the level values as documented in the
syslog(3)
manual page.
The
pam_vsyslog
function performs the same task as
pam_syslog()
with the difference that it takes a set of arguments which have been obtained using the
stdarg(3)
variable argument list macros.

STANDARDS

pam_syslog
and

functions are Linux-PAM extensions.
