NAME

sia_init  − initialization routine for SIA (Security Integration Architecture)

LIBRARY

Standard C library (libc.so and libc.a)

SYNOPSIS

#include <sia.h>
#include <siad.h>

int sia_init(void);

DESCRIPTION

The sia_init() routine is called by every sia_∗ routine to initialize the SIA configuration. This routine indirectly sets up the matrix of switches used to drive the SIA interfaces. 

RETURN VALUES

The sia_init() routine returns either SIASUCCESS or SIAFAIL. 

ERRORS

The errno value is not (normally) set explicitly by sia_∗ routines.  The errno values are those returned from the dynamic loader interface, from dependent (siad_∗) routines, or from malloc.  Possible errors include resource constraints (no memory) and various authentication failures. 

FILES
