CAPNG_HAVE_CAPABILITIES(3) Libcap-ng API CAPNG_HAVE_CAPABILITIES(3)
capng_have_capabilities - general check for capabilities
#include <cap-ng.h> capng_results_t capng_have_capabilities(capng_select_t set);
capng_have_capabilities will check the selected internal capabilities sets to see what the status is. The capabilities sets must be previously setup with calls to capng_get_caps_process, capng_get_caps_fd, or in some other way setup. The options are CAPNG_SELECT_CAPS for the traditional capabilities, CAPNG_SELECT_BOUNDS for the bounding set, or CAPNG_SELECT_BOTH if clearing both is desired.
This funtion will return one of the following four self explanatory values: CAPNG_FAIL, CAPNG_NONE, CAPNG_PARTIAL, CAPNG_FULL.
capng_get_caps_process(3), capng_get_caps_fd(3), capng_have_capability(3), capabilities(7)
