KEYCTL_MOVE(3)            Linux Key Management Calls            KEYCTL_MOVE(3)

NAME
       keyctl_move - Move a key between keyrings

SYNOPSIS
       #include <keyutils.h>

       long keyctl_move(key_serial_t key, key_serial_t from_keyring,
                        key_serial_t to_keyring, unsigned int flags);

DESCRIPTION
       keyctl_move()  atomically  unlinks  key  from from_keyring and links it
       into to_keyring in a single operation.  Depending on the flags  set,  a
       link to any matching key in to_keyring may get displaced.

       flags is a bitwise-OR of zero or more of the following flags:

       KEYCTL_MOVE_EXCL
              If  there's  a matching key in to_keyring, don't displace it but
              rather return an error.

       The caller must have write permission on both keyring  to  be  able  to
       create or remove links in them.

       The  caller  must  have link permission on a key to be able to create a
       new link to it.

RETURN VALUE
       On success keyctl_move() return 0.  On error, the value -1 will be  re-
       turned and errno will have been set to an appropriate error.

ERRORS
       ENOKEY The key or one of the keyrings specified are invalid.

       ENOKEY A  key  with  the  same  type  and  description  is  present  in
              to_keyring and KEYCTL_MOVE_EXCL is set.

       EKEYEXPIRED
              The key or one of the keyrings specified have expired.

       EKEYREVOKED
              The key or one of the keyrings specified have been revoked.

       EACCES The key exists, but is not linkable by the calling process.

       EACCES The keyrings exist, but are not writable by the calling process.

       ENOMEM Insufficient memory to effect the changes.

       EDQUOT Expanding to_keyring would exceed the keyring owner's quota.

LINKING
       This is a library function that can  be  found  in  libkeyutils.   When
       linking, -lkeyutils should be specified to the linker.
