Typedef Documentation

typedef pj_status_t(* pjsip_cred_cb)(pj_pool_t *pool, const pjsip_digest_challenge *chal, const pjsip_cred_info *cred, const pj_str_t *method, pjsip_digest_credential *auth)

Type of callback function to create authentication response. Application can specify this callback in cb field of the credential info (pjsip_cred_info) and specifying PJSIP_CRED_DATA_DIGEST_CALLBACK as data_type. When this function is called, most of the fields in the auth authentication response will have been filled by the framework. Application normally should just need to calculate the response digest of the authentication response.

Parameters:
pool Pool to allocate memory from if application needs to.
chal The authentication challenge sent by server in 401 or 401 response, in either Proxy-Authenticate or WWW-Authenticate header.
cred The credential that has been selected by the framework to authenticate against the challenge.
auth The authentication response which application needs to calculate the response digest.
Returns:
Application may return non-PJ_SUCCESS to abort the authentication process. When this happens, the framework will return failure to the original function that requested authentication.
typedef pj_status_t pjsip_auth_lookup_cred(pj_pool_t *pool, const pj_str_t *realm, const pj_str_t *acc_name, pjsip_cred_info *cred_info)

Type of function to lookup credential for the specified name.

Parameters:
pool Pool to initialize the credential info.
realm Realm to find the account.
acc_name Account name to look for.
cred_info The structure to put the credential when it's found.
Returns:
The function MUST return PJ_SUCCESS when it found a correct credential for the specified account and realm. Otherwise it may return PJSIP_EAUTHACCNOTFOUND or PJSIP_EAUTHACCDISABLED.

src Source client authentication preference.
void pjsip_cred_info_dup ( pj_pool_t pool,
pjsip_cred_info dst,
const pjsip_cred_info src 
)

Duplicate a credential info.

)

Compare two credential infos.

Parameters:

cred2 The credential info to compare.
Returns:
0 if both credentials are equal.
pj_status_t pjsip_auth_clt_init ( pjsip_auth_clt_sess sess,
pjsip_endpoint endpt,
pj_pool_t pool,
unsigned  options 
)

Initialize client authentication session data structure, and set the session to use pool for its subsequent memory allocation. The argument options should be set to zero for this PJSIP version.

Parameters:
sess The client authentication session.
endpt Endpoint where this session belongs.
pool Pool to use.
options Must be zero.
Returns:
PJ_SUCCESS on success.
pj_status_t pjsip_auth_clt_clone ( pj_pool_t pool,
pjsip_auth_clt_sess sess,
const pjsip_auth_clt_sess rhs 
)

Clone client initialization session.

Parameters:
pool Pool to use.
sess Structure to put the duplicated session.
rhs The client session to be cloned.
Returns:
PJ_SUCCESS on success;
pj_status_t pjsip_auth_clt_set_credentials ( pjsip_auth_clt_sess sess,
int  cred_cnt,
const pjsip_cred_info c 
)

Set the credentials to be used during the session. This will duplicate the specified credentials using client authentication's pool.

Parameters:
sess The client authentication session.
cred_cnt Number of credentials.
c Array of credentials.
Returns:
PJ_SUCCESS on success.
pj_status_t pjsip_auth_clt_set_prefs ( pjsip_auth_clt_sess sess,
const pjsip_auth_clt_pref p 
)

Set the preference for the client authentication session.

Parameters:
sess The client authentication session.
p Preference.
Returns:
PJ_SUCCESS on success.
pj_status_t pjsip_auth_clt_get_prefs ( pjsip_auth_clt_sess sess,
pjsip_auth_clt_pref p 
)

Get the preference for the client authentication session.

Parameters:
sess The client authentication session.
p Pointer to receive the preference.
Returns:
PJ_SUCCESS on success.
pj_status_t pjsip_auth_clt_init_req ( pjsip_auth_clt_sess sess,
pjsip_tx_data tdata 
)

Initialize new request message with authorization headers. This function will put Authorization/Proxy-Authorization headers to the outgoing request message. If caching is enabled (PJSIP_AUTH_HEADER_CACHING) and the session has previously sent Authorization/Proxy-Authorization header with the same method, then the same Authorization/Proxy-Authorization header will be resent from the cache only if qop is not present. If the stack is configured to automatically generate next Authorization/Proxy-Authorization headers (PJSIP_AUTH_AUTO_SEND_NEXT flag), then new Authorization/Proxy- Authorization headers are calculated and generated when they are not present in the case or if authorization session has qop.

If both PJSIP_AUTH_HEADER_CACHING flag and PJSIP_AUTH_AUTO_SEND_NEXT flag are not set, this function will do nothing. The stack then will only send Authorization/Proxy-Authorization to respond 401/407 response.

Parameters:
sess The client authentication session.
tdata The request message to be initialized.
Returns:
PJ_SUCCESS if successfull.
pj_status_t pjsip_auth_clt_reinit_req ( pjsip_auth_clt_sess sess,
const pjsip_rx_data rdata,
pjsip_tx_data old_request,
pjsip_tx_data **  new_request 
)

Call this function when a transaction failed with 401 or 407 response. This function will reinitialize the original request message with the authentication challenge found in the response message, and add the new authorization header in the authorization cache.

Note that upon return the reference counter of the new transmit data will be set to 1.

Parameters:
sess The client authentication session.
rdata The response message containing 401/407 status.
old_request The original request message, which will be re- created with authorization info.
new_request Pointer to receive new request message which will contain all required authorization headers.
Returns:
PJ_SUCCESS if new request can be successfully created to respond all the authentication challenges.
pj_status_t pjsip_auth_srv_init ( pj_pool_t pool,
pjsip_auth_srv auth_srv,
const pj_str_t realm,
pjsip_auth_lookup_cred lookup,
unsigned  options 
)

Initialize server authorization session data structure to serve the specified realm and to use lookup_func function to look for the credential info.

Parameters:
pool Pool used to initialize the authentication server.
auth_srv The authentication server structure.
realm Realm to be served by the server.
lookup Account lookup function.
options Options, bitmask of:

  • PJSIP_AUTH_SRV_IS_PROXY: to specify that the server will authorize clients as a proxy server (instead of as UAS), which means that Proxy-Authenticate will be used instead of WWW-Authenticate.
Returns:
PJ_SUCCESS on success.
pj_status_t pjsip_auth_srv_verify ( pjsip_auth_srv auth_srv,
pjsip_rx_data rdata,
int status_code 
)

Request the authorization server framework to verify the authorization information in the specified request in rdata.

Parameters:
auth_srv The server authentication structure.
rdata Incoming request to be authenticated.
status_code When not null, it will be filled with suitable status code to be sent to the client.

  • PJSIP_EAUTHNOAUTH
  • PJSIP_EINVALIDAUTHSCHEME
  • PJSIP_EAUTHACCNOTFOUND
  • PJSIP_EAUTHACCDISABLED
  • PJSIP_EAUTHINVALIDREALM

const pj_str_t qop,
const pj_str_t nonce,
const pj_str_t opaque,
pj_bool_t  stale,
pjsip_tx_data tdata 
)
