PAM_SYSLOG(3) Linux-PAM Manual PAM_SYSLOG(3)
pam_syslog, pam_vsyslog - send messages to the system logger
#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);
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.
pam(8)
The pam_syslog and pam_vsyslog functions are Linux-PAM extensions.
