<p>The host-to-realm interface was first introduced in release 1.12. It
allows modules to control the local mapping of hostnames to realm
names as well as the default realm. For a detailed description of the
hostrealm interface, see the header file
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><krb5/hostrealm_plugin.h></span></tt>.</p>
<p>Although the mapping methods in the hostrealm interface return a list
of one or more realms, only the first realm in the list is currently
used by callers. Callers may begin using later responses in the
future.</p>
<p>Any mapping method may return KRB5_PLUGIN_NO_HANDLE to defer
processing to a later module.</p>
<p>A module can create and destroy per-library-context state objects
using the <strong>init</strong> and <strong>fini</strong> methods. If the module does not need
any state, it does not need to implement these methods.</p>
<p>The optional <strong>host_realm</strong> method allows a module to determine
authoritative realm mappings for a hostname. The first authoritative
mapping is used in preference to KDC referrals when getting service
credentials.</p>
<p>The optional <strong>fallback_realm</strong> method allows a module to determine
fallback mappings for a hostname. The first fallback mapping is tried
if there is no authoritative mapping for a realm, and KDC referrals
failed to produce a succesful result.</p>
<p>The optional <strong>default_realm</strong> method allows a module to determine the
local default realm.</p>
<p>If a module implements any of the above methods, it must also
implement <strong>free_list</strong> to ensure that memory is allocated and
deallocated consistently.</p>
