KEYCTL(3) Linux Key Management Calls KEYCTL(3)
keyctl_*() - key management function wrappers
The keyctl() system call is a multiplexor for a number of key management functions. These should be called via the wrappers in the libkeyutils library. The functions can be compiled in by including the keyutils header file: #include <keyutils.h> and then telling the linker it should link in the library: -lkeyutils
