bool
cap_sandboxed(void);

DESCRIPTION

If the support for capability mode is not compiled into the kernel, cap_sandboxed() will always return false.

RETURN VALUES

Function cap_sandboxed() is always successful and will return either true or false.

SEE ALSO

cap_enter(2), capsicum(4)

HISTORY

The cap_sandboxed() function first appeared in FreeBSD 9.2 .

AUTHORS
