/* This is a proposed C API for support of SASL
 *
 *********************************IMPORTANT*******************************
 * send email to chris.newman@innosoft.com and cyrus-bugs@andrew.cmu.edu *
 * if you need to add new error codes, callback types, property values,  *
 * etc.   It is important to keep the multiple implementations of this   *
 * API from diverging.                                                   *
 *********************************IMPORTANT*******************************
 *
 * Basic Type Summary:
 *  sasl_conn_t       Context for a SASL connection negotiation
 *  sasl_ssf_t        Security layer Strength Factor
 *  sasl_callback_t   A typed client/server callback function and context
 *  sasl_interact_t   A client interaction descriptor
 *  sasl_secret_t     A client password
 *  sasl_rand_t       Random data context structure
 *  sasl_security_properties_t  An application's required security level
 *
 * Callbacks:

 *
 * Client/Server Function Summary:
 *  sasl_done         Release all SASL global state
 *  sasl_dispose      Connection done: Dispose of sasl_conn_t
 *  sasl_getprop      Get property (e.g., user name, security layer info)

 *  3. once list of supported mechanisms received from server, client
 *     calls sasl_client_start().  goto 4a
 *  4. client calls sasl_client_step()
 * [4a. If SASL_INTERACT, fill in prompts and goto 4
 *      -- doesn't happen if callbacks provided]
 *  4b. If SASL error, goto 7 or 3
 *  4c. If SASL_OK, continue or goto 6 if last server response was success
 *  5. send message to server, wait for response
 *  5a. On data or success with server response, goto 4
 *  5b. On failure goto 7 or 3
 *  5c. On success with no server response continue
 *  6. continue with application protocol until connection closes
 *     call sasl_getprop/sasl_encode/sasl_decode() if using security layer
 *  7. call sasl_dispose(), may return to step 2
 *  8. call sasl_done() when program terminates
 *
 * Basic Server model:
 *  1. call sasl_server_init() at startup to load plug-ins
 *  2. On connection, call sasl_server_new()
 *  3. call sasl_listmech() and send list to client]
 *  4. after client AUTH command, call sasl_server_start(), goto 5a
 *  5. call sasl_server_step()
 *  5a. If SASL_CONTINUE, output to client, wait response, repeat 5
 *  5b. If SASL error, then goto 7
 *  5c. If SASL_OK, move on
 *  6. continue with application protocol until connection closes
 *     call sasl_getprop to get username
 *     call sasl_getprop/sasl_encode/sasl_decode() if using security layer
 *  7. call sasl_dispose(), may return to step 2
 *  8. call sasl_done() when program terminates
 *
 *************************************************
 * IMPORTANT NOTE: server realms / username syntax
 *
 * If a user name contains a "@", then the rightmost "@" in the user name
 * separates the account name from the realm in which this account is
 * located.  A single server may support multiple realms.  If the
 * server knows the realm at connection creation time (e.g., a server
 * with multiple IP addresses tightly binds one address to a specific
 * realm) then that realm must be passed in the user_realm field of
 * the sasl_server_new call.  If user_realm is non-empty and an
 * unqualified user name is supplied, then the canon_user facility is
 * expected to append "@" and user_realm to the user name.  The canon_user
 * facility may treat other characters such as "%" as equivalent to "@".
 *
 * If the server forbids the use of "@" in user names for other
 * purposes, this simplifies security validation.
