+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+Obtains information about a security context.
+The caller must already have obtained a handle that refers to the
+context,
+although the context need not be fully established.
+.Sh PARAMETERS
+.Bl -tag
+.It minor_status
+Mechanism specific status code.
+.It context_handle
+A handle that refers to the security context.
+.It src_name
+The name of the context initiator.
+If the context was established using anonymous authentication,
+and if the application invoking
+.Fn gss_inquire_context
+is the context acceptor,
+an anonymous name will be returned.
+Storage associated with this name must be freed by the application
+after use with a call to
+.Fn gss_release_name .
+Specify
+.Dv NULL
+if not required.
+.It targ_name
+The name of the context acceptor.
+Storage associated with this name must be freed by the application
+after use with a call to
+.Fn gss_release_name .
+If the context acceptor did not authenticate itself,
+and if the initiator did not specify a target name in its call to
+.Fn gss_init_sec_context ,
+the value
+.Dv GSS_C_NO_NAME
+will be returned.
+Specify
+.Dv NULL
+if not required.
+.It lifetime_rec
+The number of seconds for which the context will remain valid.
+If the context has expired,
+this parameter will be set to zero.
+If the implementation does not support context expiration,
+the value
+.Dv GSS_C_INDEFINITE
+will be returned.
+Specify
+.Dv NULL
+if not required.
+.It mech_type
+The security mechanism providing the context.
+The returned OID will be a pointer to static storage that should be
+treated as read-only by the application;
+in particular the application should not attempt to free it.
+Specify
+.Dv NULL
+if not required.
+.It ctx_flags
+Contains various independent flags,
+each of which indicates that the context supports
+(or is expected to support, if
+.Fa open
+is false)
+a specific service option.
+If not needed, specify
+.Dv NULL .
+Symbolic names are provided for each flag,
+and the symbolic names corresponding to the required flags should be
+logically-ANDed with the
+.Fa ctx_flags
+value to test whether a given option is supported by the context.
+The flags are:
+.Bl -tag -width "WW"
+.It GSS_C_DELEG_FLAG
+.Bl -tag -width "False"
+.It True
+Credentials were delegated from the initiator to the acceptor.
+.It False
+No credentials were delegated.
+.El
+.It GSS_C_MUTUAL_FLAG
+.Bl -tag -width "False"
+.It True
+The acceptor was authenticated to the initiator.
+.It False
+The acceptor did not authenticate itself.
+.El
+.It GSS_C_REPLAY_FLAG
+.Bl -tag -width "False"
+.It True
+Replay of protected messages will be detected.
+.It False
+Replayed messages will not be detected.
+.El
+.It GSS_C_SEQUENCE_FLAG
+.Bl -tag -width "False"
+.It True
+Out-of-sequence protected messages will be detected.
+.It False
+Out-of-sequence messages will not be detected.
+.El
+.It GSS_C_CONF_FLAG
+.Bl -tag -width "False"
+.It True
+Confidentiality service may be invoked by calling
+.Fn gss_wrap
+routine.
+.It False
+No confidentiality service
+(via
+.Fn gss_wrap )
+available.
+.Fn gss_wrap
+will provide message encapsulation,
+data-origin authentication and integrity services only.
+.El
+.It GSS_C_INTEG_FLAG
+.Bl -tag -width "False"
+.It True
+Integrity service may be invoked by calling either
+.Fn gss_get_mic
+or
+.Fn gss_wrap
+routines.
+.It False
+Per-message integrity service unavailable.
+.El
+.It GSS_C_ANON_FLAG
+.Bl -tag -width "False"
+.It True
+The initiator's identity will not be revealed to the acceptor.
+The
+.Fa src_name
+parameter (if requested) contains an anonymous internal name.
+.It False
+The initiator has been authenticated normally.
+.El
+.It GSS_C_PROT_READY_FLAG
+.Bl -tag -width "False"
+.It True
+Protection services
+(as specified by the states of the
+.Dv GSS_C_CONF_FLAG
+and
+.Dv GSS_C_INTEG_FLAG )
+are available for use.
+.It False
+Protection services
+(as specified by the states of the
+.Dv GSS_C_CONF_FLAG
+and
+.Dv GSS_C_INTEG_FLAG )
+are available only if the context is fully established
+(i.e. if the
+.Fa open
+parameter is non-zero).
+.El
+.It GSS_C_TRANS_FLAG
+.Bl -tag -width "False"
+.It True
+The security context may be transferred to other processes via a call to
+.Fn gss_export_sec_context .
+.It False
+The security context is not transferable.
+.El
+.El
+.It locally_initiated
+Non-zero if the invoking application is the context initiator.
+Specify
+.Dv NULL
+if not required.
+.It open
+Non-zero if the context is fully established;
+Zero if a context-establishment token is expected from the peer
+application.
+Specify
+.Dv NULL
+if not required.
