+ <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+ <para>
+ The <function>pam_xauth_data</function> structure contains X
+ authentication data used to make a connection to an X display.
+ Using this mechanism, an application can communicate X
+ authentication data to PAM service modules. This allows modules to
+ make a connection to the user's X display in order to label the
+ user's session on login, display visual feedback or for other
+ purposes.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The <emphasis>name</emphasis> field contains the name of the
+ authentication method, such as "MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1". The
+ <emphasis>namelen</emphasis> field contains the length of this string,
+ not including the trailing NUL character.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The <emphasis>data</emphasis> field contains the authentication
+ method-specific data corresponding to the specified name. The
+ <emphasis>datalen</emphasis> field contains its length in bytes.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The X authentication data can be changed with the
+ <emphasis>PAM_XAUTH_DATA</emphasis> item. It can be queried and
+ set with
+ <citerefentry>
+ <refentrytitle>pam_get_item</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum>
+ </citerefentry>
+ and
+ <citerefentry>
+ <refentrytitle>pam_set_item </refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum>
+ </citerefentry> respectively. The value used to set it should be
+ a pointer to a pam_xauth_data structure. An internal copy of both
+ the structure itself and its fields is made by PAM when setting the
+ item.
